July 19th – Monday Magic – Seclusion 101 with AnneMarie

I hope everyone had a nice weekend! Dan went golfing yesterday, but while he was gone I had a couple of unexpected visitors. Son Mark came by with his son Dom. We were so busy visiting, and snacking, and splashing in the pool that I forgot to take any photos.

Our day is beginning a bit cooler and overcast today. I started my meditation outside in my special place under our big spruce tree, but it started to sprinkle a bit so decided to come inside. I got comfortable and we had the wildest crash of thunder! I thought the upgrader outside of town had exploded. Then it rumbled on for a bit and there were no sirens, so it was obviously just thunder. 🤷

I have a few new photos of our yard to share. I hope you enjoy!

**Between our cucumbers and our tomatoes, I almost need a machete to get around our garden.**

**Anything but portulaca fries in this planter on the east side of our garage, but, the portulaca thrives all summer.**

We have two lemon trees that we started from seed about three summers. They spend the summer outside and winter inside. They are both going nuts this summer. At some point, wintering them in our house is going to become problematic. 🙄

**First sunflower to bloom and it is twins!**

**I have no idea what these are but they are suddenly thriving. 😉**

**Our money tree finally decided to come back to life.** **Yay!** 👍💵🥂

**This begonia has been struggling but it is starting to come back, as well. 💞**

That is all I have for today! I hope all is well with everyone. There’s a full moon this week, so if you are prone to moonly disasters you might want to lay low and hide your electronics. 😉

Take care and see you tomorrow💞
