Patio tragedy

Something awful has happened! 

This is how my sweet gorgeous pansies looked yesterday morning. So I thought ok, they've had a bit too much water (???) so I'll put them in the sun to dry them out. This morning they look the same. I picked up one of the plants to see if they had rotten roots (too much water???) and it looked like this. 


The roots never even spread from their coiled up mess to begin with!!! I am so sad that they're gone! I don't think they can be saved anymore :(. 
These are the ones I lost. At least I got lots of pictures before they died. (Silver lining to every cloud, right).






They are survived by these pansies. The ones in the planter with strawberries (also not doing well, lol) and the pansies of the blue pot. Pictures taken this morning while enjoying my iced cocoa-coffee.








Oh well, I suppose life goes on. 
I must say, I like going in to work at 1:30 p.m. but getting out at 9:30 at night and having to be back the following morning at 7:30 isn't really my cup of tea. 
However, Tuesday is fast approaching!!! :)

And as an added bonus, I got my schedule for the next weeks and I have not one, not two, not four, BUT FIVE DAYS OFF IN A ROW! Woohoo mini-vacation for me! 
To top it off, if we can manage to find someone to watch the big boy for us, we might even take a trip to our relatives' cottage for a few days! Fingers and toes crossed!! 
So um, you wanna volunteer? ;)

Thanks for reading and happy SUNDAY-FUNDAY!
