Tight-rolled jeans with rolled-down socks.
Also, aforementioned backwards clothes - even trained my Grandma to reply "jump, jump?" 😁
That's awesome! Good idea keeping mosquitoes away - I'm a friggen mosquito-magnet and get a new bite almost every time I go outside (and most of the lawn is kept tidy, but we don't clean up all the long grass in the "lily garden" - yet)
Very nice! They bounced back well! What else is in there with them? The bigger bushy leaves look kinda like geranium to me, but it's just a guess
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
It's great that you got to keep the original plan, once the trees got a little bigger!
But it's really quite amazing how well hostas do, when given shade. We have so many (in the back) that aren't even the same as any of the other hostas in our back yard!
We had a similar (but reversed) situation - had a giant oak in the front yard when we bought the house. We put hostas in the shade - our front yard was full shade, so they did really well.
A couple of years later, our oak got sick and full shade turned into part shade. Then we had to take it down, so the already stressed and crispy hostas - which had already stopped doing well - seem to be barely present in the front.
We don't have as many hostas in the front anymore.
Ya know, I think those are actually all volunteers - I think we also had only seen variegated, except for this one kind that are giant and blue.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Thank you, though! We also are loving how little grass can grow between/beneath them!
Thank you!
My spouse floated an idea that would double the size of this flower bed.
🥰
I'm all about that! I wanna split and scramble some of the colors around, now that I know what it all looks like!🤞
I'm sure they would have been great ~
Sorry to hear that your deer are jerks (and those beetles! Man - those guys suck!)
Like the Santa maggot guy
I kinda like the idea of it being Santa instead of Satan 😁
PAX - before there was PAX Prime or PAX East.

Is it an incoming begonia flower? Most of the plant is in rough shape, and I think it came with pests I didn't know about 😑
Created in 2016 - wow, I can't believe it's been so long!
I knit and crochet, so when I saw this amigurumi horror show on display I fell in "love" with the stitches (which are somehow both and neither knit and crochet)
(Sdxl with added details lora and maybe/probably the yarn lora, but it was generated while I was asleep, so I don't have all the details)
Used a details lora and a rainbows lora. Kinda looks like bioluminescence may have also been selected, but that's just a guess 😁
We did a series of "baby photos" (with a Lora for added details) and some turned out good enough that I thought I'd share!
(I don't actually know how much to include but I was really happy with this guy)

Just tried again today, even though I wasn't expecting any different results from the last few Imagine my surprise! I'm pretty sure nothing happened on my end (Sync settings or instance).

Some text...

This isn't from this year - no snow yet! - but, it seemed a fitting follow-up to the first pic I posted.

I don't know if or when it came back (there seems to be a 30 year cycle for fashion where everything old is new again) or if you are just your own individual who doesn't care if it's in, just doing it because you like it.
Or maybe you're rockabilly. Or too punk to care.
Or maybe I stopped noticing it and it never actually went out of fashion - it was me who went out of fashion!
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
