Hi (Furry)furriends💗
It has been a busy week again
for me and my Granny…
There was so much going on in the garden…
it all became alive more and more
and it all started with the Ants…
and the Aphids on the Cherry tree…
and then out of nowhere came the tripes thrips…
…lots of thrips…
they settled in the house of
the wanna-be-wasps
that lived there for a couple of years…
and actually the thrips have banned all these creatures
because they wanted a house of their own…
so Granny had to find a way to get rid of them too…
but they were with so many
that she decided to move the whole house
into the dustbin
for a purroper final countdown…
and now we hope that the wanna-be-wasps
make their comeback
and drink again
when Granny comes to fill their bottles…
this one always waited here for her
…every day sharp…
but first we have to buy a new house for them…
…I’m sure that won’t last long…
but just when we thought we had it all
a new army of ants tried it again…
🐜🐜🐜🙈
no wonder she didn’t had time for my blog…
but there’s a lot to be
T H A N K F U L
for
anyway…
because Granny found the Queen of the ants…
she was walking towards Granny
with the white flag to give up the fight…
and then she let herself catch on a branch
so Granny could walk her to the green bin
where she can live on furrever…
Now we finally have a little rest…
to tell you where we are
T H A N K F U L
for
our two coloured Borage…
so beautiful…
you can eat them
but let’s be honest
who wants to eats those beauties…
We’re also very
T H A N K F U L
for
the Hypericum
that was very sick because of the aphids, mealybugs
AND ants…
Granny treated her with another Homeopathic remedy…
and look at her now
this was the next day after the treatment…
and now she looks even more beautiful…
…see…
amazing isn’t it?…
And look at the stars now…
not above…
they came down…
and settled themselves between the other plants…
he’s back too…
so grateful for that…
what about our Sage…
and Chives…
this one even has a face inside of her…
and a bug…
and the Clematis has made furriends
with the Astilbe
that Granny repotted to another place
where she could breath again
because the Anemones didn’t want her there
overgrowned her…
and look who’s back too
The Flower of Light…
now better take out all of your sunglasses
because there’s a light…
in every Rose…
and when you listen good…
there’s a melody in it too…
can you hear it?
I really do…
they sound like a melody…
listen…
Sounds Like A Melody – Alphaville (1984)
There is a Light that never goes out – The Smiths (1986)
Heart of the Universe – Snatam Kaur and Peter Faber (2012)
and now it’s time for my
artwork and
Do you still like my puzzles?
then you find one inside of it too…
I think I need a little vacation now…
“Let’s float
with a boat on a river
with no distraction
and far away from the action
just a gondelier who leads us from here
singing “O sole mio”
under the stars at night
that are shining bright
in the Universe
of life.”
📚🌞🎨Have a Peaceful Week ahead my furriends🎨🌞📚
🙏Stay Safe Healthy and Yourselfie🙏

Oh those ants. They can be a pawful, for sure. Did you know they FARM aphids? Yup, they do. Did you know they will bit you? Yup, they will. Well not me, actually, but Peepers has disturbed a nest or two and been bitten. MOUSES!
Jul 17, 2021 @ 08:36:56
Wow. Your granny is really talented. Congratulations on besting the ants.

Your Granny’s persistence and homeopathic remedies definitely paid off. Such beautiful garden lovelies! Your roses are just pawtastic, Binky.
Jul 14, 2021 @ 02:03:08
I’m so glad the insect problems have been solved and your flowers are singing!
Jul 14, 2021 @ 01:33:47
OMGoodness, Little B. Granny is a lifesaver with her homeopathic remedies. That garden is the place to be.
Love and licks,

Oh Binky, that was such a wonderful tour of your grandma’s garden. I love it! I’ve never seen pink borage, only the blue. I grow some of these flowers, too. But not roses – I’ve given up on them. That blushing rose is so beautiful. So is the music – I knew the first two songs – not the third. And I can listen to Alphaville all day!
Jul 13, 2021 @ 18:48:03
Binky what a wonderful post and so glad Granny got that Queen to move. We love all your flowers but the Borage really grabbed us. We love it so much! Great Art and Wonderful Poem.
That said thank you so very much for the card. It was so sweet and Dad got all wet eyed again. Love you all!

Such a gorgeous garden little Binky! You have a lot to be grateful for and so does Granny because she has you!💖
Jul 13, 2021 @ 08:55:18
Oh wow – so much for which to be grateful. 🙂
Just keep on keeping on. The results sure are worth all the effort.
xoxoxo

Gorgeous pics of you Lil Binky and the garden is so beautiful. Loved the flowers. Enjoy the sunshine.
Jul 13, 2021 @ 06:59:43
Your garden is very beautiful, Little Binky, but it seems you and Granny can’t let your guard down with all the ants and other little creatures 🙂
Jul 13, 2021 @ 05:43:36
OMD, Granny is a hero!!! Savin’ all those FABulous plants from all the buggies! Sometimes the spiders are just not enough to gets rid of the bugs, huh? The ants are terrible this year! Here, it is probably cause of the drought ~ I thinks they are lookin’ for water like the rest of us, so it’s a fight! Anyhu, glads all is back in balance with your beautiful garden Binky! And, might I say, you are lookin’ FABulous yourself!
Kisses,
Ruby ♥

Wow I agree with you that you need a holiday after such a lovely long blog post. All those adventures with ants, apids and wasps are tiresome. Thanks for showing everything. My mum enjoyed every moment and read it twice over to me. Enjoy the rest of the week
We’ve got icy cold weather and stay inside. High paws and licks.
Jul 13, 2021 @ 00:08:06
Great post! Love the art!
We get loads of ants in our garden too.
Jul 12, 2021 @ 23:30:43
Your garden is looking so beautiful, Binky! Thank cod you and granny took care of all those pests that wanted to live in it. 🙂
Jul 12, 2021 @ 23:14:49
Great spark and poem. Beautiful blooms, but none can compare to you Binky. I love your art too and thank yo for the puzzle. XO
Jul 12, 2021 @ 22:28:14
You and Granny have had a busy time with all those garden pests. It has been so wet and cold that we haven’t had any invasions yet, just a few ants and aphids. It is forecast to get hotter from tomorrow and is always humid here even when it is cool. I expect that will bring the thrips out. We call them thunderflies because they like hot humid weather.
Your Astilbe is growing well. Only one of mine grew this year. I think it was because we had a very dry March, a cold April and a very wet May/June. The plants don’t like it and want some sun. Your second rose has my favourite colours and I chose similar for Eric and Flynn in the Remembrance Garden.
Your art is lovely and thanks for the puzzle.
Jul 12, 2021 @ 21:16:35
oh how I hate when “the ants come marching in!!”
Jul 12, 2021 @ 21:09:54
I always love how you are so talented that you can combine all those ‘themes’ into such beautiful posts!!
Your garden blooms are amazing, and its good to know that Granny knows how to keep everything in the kind of balance for the best prettiness and health of all the plants that grow there, and not to mention all the helpful buggies! Phooey on those bugs who want to take over…its sort of a backhanded compliment, your garden is so pleasing even the invaders appreciate it! LOL!
Does your Granny use the herbs for medicinal purposes??
Have a great week, and Little Binky, its always good to see you enjoying the garden and all the wondrous beauty around you…it enhances yours!
Jul 12, 2021 @ 18:53:29
Gorgeous garden Binky! And gorgeous pictures of you! Music and flowers and a sweet Binky, all in all a lovely post!
Jul 12, 2021 @ 16:42:07
You have such a beautiful garden, Little Binky. We battle the ants too. This year has been terrible. We just want them to stay out of our home.
Love your playlist. You and your granny do such a wonderful job
Thank you for joining the Awww Mondays Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Awww Monday and week. Scritches to you and my best to your granny. ♥

Binky,
Thank you for the lovely garden time. Your granny has a beautiful green thumb. The flowers are so pretty. That multi-colored rose is stunning. Is it called the flower of light? You were right to warn us to take out our sunglasses. I didn’t listen and I wished that I had – WOW! Your music was a perfect fit for your garden presence and then you wound things up with a nice poem. You’re such a talented furriend. Hugs to you and Granny! Thanks for hitting the dance floor with me this morning! 😘
Jul 12, 2021 @ 15:56:57
You have a lovely garden
Jul 12, 2021 @ 15:50:38

This is a beautiful post sweet Binky. My momma and I both loved every picture and every word. She mentioned that she had a lot of trouble with insects coming to eat and kill our vegetable plants. But we won, and she has a lot to enjoy now.

What wonderful flowers you have in your garden, such great shots from amazing blooms. You and Granny put so much effort in it and it shows. Absolutely lovely. I do love your puzzles and always wait for it to be honest. I shall do it now.! Take care and have a rest too!
Jul 12, 2021 @ 14:16:35
Oh Binky what a beautiful post with SOOOOOOOOO many gorgeous photos of you, the garden, the results of your Granny’s “doctoring” the sick plants with all the glorious NEW growth………and of course that GLOWING rose! You have such a pretty place to rest and nap and keep an eye on things!! Your poem for my Mom’s favorite city – Venice – is super too. My Mom dreams about Venice all the time – I think she’d like to go back but I won’t let her unless she takes me. HAHA Thanks for being our friend dear Binky!
Hugs, Teddy

Mmm, a friend had a sign in his garden: I thought of my garden as a retreat, but it’s more like an attack’ 😉 Good luck keeping on top of the things you don’t want and bringing out the best in those that you do!

The Flower of Light is next on mama’s rose list!!! But do suggest to your granny to find a Sweet Love…you will not BELIEVE the perfume….Beautiful post,s
