Just a note, yesterday I saw my first crocus.... not a day or two after the snow had melted back from the foundation enough to pop out of the ground, there is was... eager and waiting.. impatient as we all are here for spring. 

Years ago I kept a dream journal and wrote down details of my dreams. Going back and reading them now I'm mostly like WTF? but some of them still ring a bell in my head.

I've been having so many dreams lately that are very vivid, but I end up forgetting them by the time I'm fully awake or by the end of the day. So I have tried to write some notes ( Read more... )

I'm watching Six Feet Under. Ryther went to the movies and there is zero on TV, and since they took the Wii out of the system I have no idea how to watch Netflix. So I went looking for something on DVD, which thankfully I can still at least access. I really like this series. Good stuff.

Spent the day prying leaves off the ground. The sun was nice, ( Read more... )

The cold and wind have returned, but the winter is winding down. Just spotted the crocus on the side of the house trying to make a break for it, only to be shot down by the plunging temperatures. But that's they cycle, and soon it will be warm again.

Second burial this week tomorrow. Someone I know. Not a close friend, but someone I've known ( Read more... )

Spring seems to have returned... real spring that is.. with frost warnings and a reminder that you do NOT plant tomatoes before Memorial day, no matter that we never had a winter ( Read more... )

I woke yesterday to 55' weather. The windows were open all night. Last night was supposed to be cooler.. but this morning I woke to 62'. And the windows were open all night. WTF??? Someone near the cemetery said their flowering tree, a magnolia, is blooming a full month ahead of time. All the Daffodils are blooming and the crocus at the cemetery ( Read more... )

Well, the funeral went great. Everything worked out well. Funny the vault man was the one Biv was fawning over. He didn't ask about her though. Maybe he knows. Apparently his wife was someone who went to school with Biv ( Read more... )

The Bugleweed is flourishing at the cemetery. Some sections of ground in one are have a blue carpet. It's so pretty that it's a shame to mow or whip, but alas... Actually I leave bunches of it around the stones, as I do the buttercups which are also blooming right now. They are so sweet when they bloom, but they don't last too long. I may have ( Read more... )

I went to the cemetery today to do the raking I wanted to do yesterday before the funeral but didn't get time for. My rock garden was stuffed with leaves, and I need to get them out and off the plants before they really kick into high gear. When I'll ever get back to picking up the piles I'll never know, as we already have two funerals for this ( Read more... )

Definitely have a head cold. blah ( Read more... )
