definitely not much going on here. my greatest delight lately is finding new homes for things. or disposing of them altogether. there was plenty of that going on this weekend. i did something crazy alright, but i’m not sure if i will tell. some artists would understand. some would not. but it felt right to me. i photographed them all first though. anyway, again, at the end of the weekend, the big alley trash was full and that felt great. then on monday to the post office to send out treasures to new homes. and that felt great, too.

i’ve been seeing this mullen everywhere this year. even in my yard. i did not do ONE BIT of gardening this year. i would like tomatoes and basil and i do love flowers, but i just didn’t have the right energy or even know if i would be there through the summer. i still don’t. i was excited thinking margaret was coming back this weekend but found out it won’t be until the following weekend. sniff. i don’t blame my sister for wanting to keep her!

what else? the plumber. the dentist. summer. the fluorescent prison. freecell.

could i be more boring? i think not!

    Lovely photo. As yours always are.

    When do you leave for CA? I stayed one week in Berkeley then one week in Tahoe. Now all I want is get back to Berkeley. Why oh why didn’t I sublet for the summer? Now my AC has gone out here = big bucks. Sigh.

    Yes, boring. But life.

    we leave june 28! it is awkward because i barely have enough vacation time to take a week. i *wish* i could stay longer, but maybe when both girls are in CA i will be able to. someday …

    oh i thought you were going to stay in Berkeley all summer!!! i am sorry you didn’t have a longer time either. yes. life. sigh.

    I was…I messed up and didn’t sublet (full of what ifs and what-will-I-do-with-my-cat worries). So I came back and found the broken central air situation and a sad cat. I’m heading to St. Louis for a while later in the month (take the cat, stay at a friend’s, go on day trips). Maybe Berkeley at Christmas, but definitely next summer.

    Have fun. I’m so jealous of a road trip with your girl.

    I can’t get motivated to sit at the art table, but maybe I’ll follow your lead and organize. It can’t hurt…
