Surprise blooms


 I had a few more blooms from one of my sunflower plants last week, They lasted about a week before the pesky squirrels got to them.

Do you schedule your posts ahead of time?  I often do a week to a week and a half ahead and I can always go back to make modifications.  Then if some days are busier than others I have posts ready to go as I post daily.

So pretty! I used to schedule posts when I did more blogging. Now that I only post once a week, just prepare it the morning of.

Awesome surprise! Getting cold here and the gardening is over. It depends if I have time. I love scheduling ahead. Sometimes, as I would write I could do this months ahead, but not these days. Still, I do like to schedule a few days ahead.

Beautiful flowers! I usually write my posts the night before but usually don't schedule them, just leave it in draft until I get up in the morning.

Lovely how nature tries to keep the flowers flowering as long as possible. To bad the squirrels thought these last blooms looked like a tasty snack.
I do sometimes schedule a post a day ahead of time 🎃🍂☕👻🍁🐈🌙

I do not schedule ahead. I'm pretty loosey goosey so when something pops into my head it gets written and posted. I admire people who have a schedule and can post every day.

Great idea Hilly, thanks.

Surprise blooms are always nice. I can't believe some of the thistle at the lake is still blooming , it should be done by now. I 've only scheduled a few posts earlier to be published later - ...it would be hard for me to do ..i'm too scattered ...lol

The flower is such a wonderful yellow, and yes, will make a lovely painting.

I usually have a few posts in draft form ...

All the best Jan

Looks good, I quite like squirrels though haha!

I only schedule if I know I can't post on that day. Probably should start as I get tired a lot with walking!

baili said...

glad you could have lovely blooms in your yard dear Christine ;)

they are cherishing indeed!

i tried few times but never could achieve it due to lack of time :(

Suz said...

I never knew squirrels ate the flowers; dang it!
I generally write my posts just before I share them....sadly, there is very little thought going into most of my posts. LOL!
