I'll believe this when it really happens

“Florida to Buy Sugar Maker in Bid to Restore Everglades.”

I’m deeply curious to hear what JunglePete has to say about this. He hasn’t blogged about it yet, I think he’s busy photoshopping my head onto this image. Who the hell left him in charge of the reunion book in the first place? I mean, er, Pete is going to do a swell job on the reunion book…

Oh hell

Last night of my mom’s visit. I had a brilliant post constructed in my mind and a martini washed it away.

Oh wait, I know what it was.

I spent time with my mom today for Mother’s Day. (We’re not very good with schedules). We put in a new sunflower bed today and planted seeds for 9 varieties of sunflowers.

I carefully planned out the bed, taking into account size of plant, size of flower, color schemes, and the like. I carefully amended the soil. I’ve mulched around, but not over, the future plants.

Then, mom and I took stock of my handywork and imagined how lovely it’s going to look in a few months.

Then, we remembered that’s where my new sunroom is going.
