Show and Tell Friday!

Yard Conservatory


Welcome to Show and Tell Friday!  

This is my busy week at work this week. Once a quarter we do global webcast meetings which means one day I have to be at work at 6:30 AM and then another day I have to work until 9:00 PM!  I'm keeping it easy this week and re-sharing my yard conservatory!  I love this thing! When you walk in my front door you can see this out on my patio.  

My Yard Conservatory

I wish my garden looked this good now but the fact is, it's been neglected this year. I'm too busy on the weekends having fun to get out and do yard work!  I'm hoping to get out there soon and clean it up. Now that it's staying light so much later I really have no excuse because I can get out there and garden after work! That's not going to happen this week though....maybe next week!  If only there were more hours in the day!!!

    Hi Cindy ~ I am in the same boat. So much to do and so little time especially when fun gets in the way! Glad to know that you are having fun too!

    Hugs,
    Susan and Bentley

    Hello Cindy, I love your garden conservatory - it is beautifully embellished - perfectly accents the corner. My garden is flourishing despite me lately - I need to get out there and give it some love - but, not till next week! I appreciate you being a gracious hostess,
    Kathy

    My poor garden is sadly neglected too. I'm dreading the process of fixing it up, there's so much that needs to be done.

    Thanks for another link party. I linked up a healthy and simple No Calorie Sweet Green Tea recipe (# 235) that's a great alternative to soda. Perfect for hot summer afternoons! Hope you like it and have an awesome week!

    I hear you! My hubby has taken over the sun deck with tools for the mantel re build. Problem is, it's the only spot safe from the deer! So I am really behind with getting all my Summer flowers potted.

    Have FUN this weekend! The yard work will all still be there.
    Unfortunately ;)

    Don't you just cherish past garden photos? They inspire us to get out there and tackle all that yard work again each year! (when we're not crazy busy, that is.) Your garden is so pretty. Thanks for hosting your party today and hope you have a relaxing weekend.

    Cindy I LOVE your home, your style, and your blog. "My Romantic Home" is like my own little romantic magazine that I can view whenever I want, and all the back issues are available instantly, lol! You inspired me to start my own lil blog. :) Think you may have heard that once or twice before. ;)

    You're the best truly!

    Hi Cindy! Love your conservatory! I'm in the same boat...working far too many hours while my yard suffers. Hopefully that will be remedied soon! :)
