Expurrts of the invasion

Hi (Furry)furriends💗

…Rise and Shine…

Stippie…

it’s finally Summer…

and since she came to our Country

we had to do a lot again

in the garden…

…first we started with our Pear tree…

you won’t believe what the ants did…

they laid their eggs

in effurry part of our Pear tree…

and not just a few…

we found big, huge, small…

in short

an overdose of each kind of eggs…🙈

so we had to empty it all out…

and gave them a furresh dive

into the …err…sea…

but because all the roots of the tree

were full of eggs too

Granny had a lot of work

to get them clean again…

she didn’t want to lose her Pear tree

that she raised from when she was

just a little girl ♪♫♪…tree…

and so beautiful in bloom this year…

that we thought

she will finally give us some eggs…err…pears…

but unfortunately the ants

…and not to forget

the weather…

…had other plans fot her…

so now Granny is trying effurrything

to keep her safe and alife…

like Apple…once our appletree…

now in the hands of the ants and the lice too…

it was getting even worse

because effurrything that Granny did

lead to nothing…

because the rain didn’t stop

and the ants either…

and when it finally got better

and the leaves started to bloom properly again

…after the daily care…

all the new branches fell off the tree…

and so we’re back from where we started…

she looks better now…

but there’s still a lot daily work to do

because the ants are still busy

milking the few lices that are still in it…

so we have to be very observant

to take action immediately

so that the lice don’t multiply again…

and in that case

…more ants…

and despite how terrible Apple is feeling

she did her best to give a few new born apples…

…see…

…she was full in bloom before this all started…

and so sad that Granny had to take them away from her

but she told her

that she needs all her strenghts now

to get better…

and that she can try again next year…

it’s really hard work out here…

we spend hours in the garden to fix these problems…

…without poisoned stuff…

we know that we can do it without it…

it only takes a little a lot more time

and thus more patience…

but it’s not all doom and gloom…

look at this…

the clematis is full in bloom now…

without creatures that cling to her…

and we hung the curtains…

because it’s finally hot out here…

…almost 38℃ (102F) in the garden…

…the whole week…

…and we all love it…

…except Grandpaw…

we also had ONE strawberry…

and after we ate it

she now has two in the making…🍓

and we had only ONE raspberry

…none of the other plants didn’t grew well enough…

but Summer isn’t over yet

so maybe there’s hope for more…

and look at our French Geranium…

…nice huh…

and she’s doing well…

she keeps her eyes on effurrything😸

and our Hypericum is full in bloom too…

to attrack the one and only Bumble Bee this year…

not really…

there were two more yesterday morning…

but far too little this year…

we hope they’ll come later this week…

and the Butterflies too…

because we only had two of them

…so far…

and we need more activity here outside

because otherwise Granny has to entertain us

for the rest of Summer…😹

and now look

who’s having a Spa…

talking about a Spa…

we were a guest teaser

in last week’s teaser

with a picture of Spa Belgium…

click on the badge if you like to see it…

now it’s time for this week’s poem

for our furriends

Angel Sammy and Teddy…

on this picture

“There’s a whole invasion

of countless ants in nation

fixated on just one goal

milking lice to rock and roll

the trees have to pay the price

for the honey filled lice

sugared and sweet

like it was a treat

in this Summer heat

and if we weren’t there

taking care

of our beloved trees

and with our expertise

to bring them to their knees

they still would hanging around

piled together like a crowd

without making any sound

just a bunch of ants and lice

on their way to Paradise.”

We’re

T H A N K F U L

that we have it all under control

…now…

but it sure needs daily care…

…and with a little magic touch…🧙‍♀️

it will all work out fine

in the end…

look who’s taking care of her youngster too…

✨that’s magic huh✨

📚Have a Happy Sunday my furriends📚

fragile emotions mewsic…

I know you can fill the entire blog with it…

talking about filling

let’s get into it and fill effurrything…

1. Seven down,

and still

a few more

to go…

and we’re lucky

because the sun is shining

and besides…

it’s for a good cause…

because now Grandpaw can finally start to make the fences

catproof…🌞

2. It’s all fun and games

until

they put blankies all over effurrything the couch

so we can’t use it anymore as a

comprehensive scratching post…

next to our own big scratching tree…🙀

3. By some miracle, Granny I

found my ball again…

after searching

around the house for three times…

and looking in the same place

for three times…

where it surpurrizingly showed up

at once

…from out of nowhere…

that’s definetely a miracle…🧙‍♀️

When the garden comes to light…

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🎨🌞📚
