Calm again...


We had an early morning thunder storm here today, but as I look out the window of my office, it appears as though the sky has lightened and the torrent has passed. Calm prevails again!

My hope, for the rest of the summer at least, is to devote serious time every day to some project or other in the house or in the yard. Yesterday, for example, WH and I dug up a disgusting old corner garden, including a gigantic ant hill, that we've wanted to tackle for a long time. There's still a little bit of digging to do and then we'll even out the top soil and seed in the fall. We'll probably also have to give a good dose of ant poison to keep them from simply rebuilding. Pesky little buggers.

I think that this afternoon will be for cleaning out our bathroom cupboard, and sorting our ever-growing inventory of hotel-sized shampoo bottles. Yay!

if you need an Attractive Basket to put your sample-shampoos etc. in -- Baskets R Us. One of our kinswomen keeps hers on the dresser in her guestroom. Just sayin'. Nice waterlily too BTW!
