Description

This is a bud of my mom's bleeding heart that survived the freeze we had. I think it is such a pretty old time flower. I got my flower bed done and have been paying for it. Cried for 2 days with severe pain and finally ended up going to E.R bad as I hated to but thankfully the pain has ended. All my flowers are looking good. Got lots of zinnias, my favs, cock comb, bee balm, petunias and planted my morning glories and others. So glad all that is over and no more bending and digging for me. Today was a big day in Kentucky. Derby Day Hubby and I had our first date there 25 yrs ago today:) If I had bet I would have won $220.00, but alas no place to bet here in this ho dunk of a town, LOL and that would of been all of $5.00 something I could afford. Hope this finds everyone doing okay and in good health. All postwork done in PSP 9 Added border and frame. Love 'n' hugs Susan~

Beautiful capture Susan. My mother had these in her flower garden as well when I was growing up in PA, I always enjoyed watching them bloom, they are such a unique flower. I'm glad you got it all finished and that you were able to finally get the pain under control as well. I wasn't looking forward to the docs increasing my morphine level recently either but I too would rather not cry myself to sleep from the pain, that is when you can actually get sleep. I'll continue to keep you in my thoughts and prayers throughout the days, believing for God's healing deliverance in your life and that he blesses you with great abundance spiritually, mentally, and physically. Cheers ;o) Brian
