it was one of those weekends that was good enough to make going to sleep on sunday night pleasant, even knowing next day was back to the grindstone (with the delightful addition of afternoon dentistry to look forward to). pretty lazy on saturday morning, then got LOTS done. the usual stuff and a trip to the nursery, then hanging out with traci, first to wander through the neighborhood with our plastic cameras to the Art in the Yard event, then back to my house for white wine, glueingshitdown, dinner, then more glueing. on sunday morning i was only partly lazy, as long as the coffee lasted, because there were plants to go into the ground and i wanted to work when it was cool, so i was out by 7:30. for three hours i planted and weeded, taking breaks to talk to my mother, text back and forth with betsy, still in ireland, and talk to margaret, still in texas. a BIG basket of yellow REAL flowers came from my small girl. what a surprise!!! by 10:30 i was dying of starvation, so we brunched on olives, spinach bread, mozzarella and strawberries. yum. some reading - “Little, Big” (i’m hypnotized). then we decided to take an afternoon hike to the Fitch Nature Preserve. i decided to take the jamcam. she has never been there. it was hot and green and smelled very fine and fresh. we saw a HUGE snapping turtle, a tiny flycatcher who sang on a branch right in front of us, a lady oriole, some deer and some finished jack-in-the-pulpits. it was good.

there are pictures here.

now. dentist. omigod. at least there will be nitrous.
