Grass From Seed

 



Can you believe

In less than three weeks

I went from . . .




This, too . . .




This.

It's Amazing!!!


🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱


This might be my shortest post

ever, LOL

I just had to show off my

new green grass.


It's a good thing that 

I planted it 

just before my birthday.

I think it would have been 

too much work for 

a 79 year old lady,

but a 78 year old

that's another story, LOL


🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱


God Bless you All

and have a sweet week.

Your blogging sister,

Connie :)

  1. Wowzers! That is some gorgeous green grass. You must have had prime grass growing conditions! Great job. I'm not sure though. I think that some 79 year olds still have a LOT of work left in them. :-)
    Blessings and hugs,
    Betsy

    1. I think the weather was perfect for growing grass. I've never had it take off and grow that fast before. Yes, I guess this old gal still has a little get up and go left, LOL.

    1. I know, I've never had grass grow this fast and get this thick so fast. Apparently all the conditions were just right. The weather was between 80 and 90 and I was giving it lots of water.

    1. I'm loving it. Now when I hang sheets up on the line I don't have to worry if one of them touches the ground before I have it completely hung up. When it was dirt it meant washing them all over again.

  11. My son has been trying to establish a new area of grass all summer but it's so slow. Yours went amazingly fast.
    Just to say that as of a week or so ago we are now the same age💗💗💗💗

    1. Let's enjoy being in the 70s for one more year. For some reason 80 sounds a lot older doesn't it. But we're not going to let 80 get us down either :)
      And a happy belated birthday to you 🥳

    1. Actually it probably helped me, because I was sick during the whole time of germination and yet I had to go outside several times a day to turn the water on and off to keep it moist. Otherwise I would have been laying around the house feeling sorry for myself. After doing all that work to rototill it and seed it there was no way I was going to let it dry out. So I threw on my bathrobe and went out and turn the water on or off, depending. It's probably the only exercise I got the whole week.

  13. Such an amazing difference from dirt to grass. I'm sure that will work out much better for you with clothes or quilts hanging out on the line. Good for you with all you do. You are an inspiration to others.

    1. Thank you so much. I think that is what we all want from our blogs, is to inspire others. Some ideas we share may not mean much , but every now and then we will inspire someone to try something new, or to think about something in a new way. Life is short and we don't want to ever stagnate :)

    1. I hope that you are too, even more so.
      God has been gracious and blessed me with good heath :)
      That doesn't mean that I don't have aces and pains,
      but nothing that rest for a couple of days after the work
      doesn't take care of. I do have to pace myself more and
      more each year :)
