Oops, I forgot that today is the fifteenth.
I ran a half marathon this morning.
I’m now sitting in my new “office” on an ice pack trying to blog and not fall asleep in the process.
I am really not prepared for bloom day so I’ll just post what I have. I really don’t feel like getting up and taking photos right now, (Goodness what a whiner.)
Abutilon
Ajuga
Bacopa
Calendula
Calla lily ‘Green Goddess’

Coreopsis
Cuphea
Dahlias
Fuchsia
Gerbera Daisies
Gladiolus

And what you have is pretty darn impressive. I would be relaxing and whining a bit if I'd run a half-marathon this morning, for sure.
Thanks for participating in Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day.

What a wonderful list of blooms you have and in alphabetical order too, I'm impressed. ;-)
Love that pic of the variegated pelargonium, so colourful!
BTW my bloom post is up too.

Carol, Michelle and Yolanda Elizabet,
Thank you for visiting. You shouldn't be impressed. Here in California, if you don't do some sort of sport the beats the crap out of your body, people look at you funny:):):)

Some of my adult children run in marathons - if we happen to be in the same state I hold up signs and yell things like "Go, Go!"
Does that count?
Great list, Chigiy - love that passion flower photo.

Annie,
Cheering for the runners is a huge part of running a race. If there was no one cheering for you it would be sad and lonely:( No one has ever held up a sign for me. You are a great mom.
