I didn't realize so much time had gone by since I last posted. The weather has been nice, 70's and 80's and still cool at night. It's breezy enough to keep the air fresh so we can keep the house open all night. So far. But the time will come as it does every year when the breeze will stop and the smog will build up and the idiot across the alley will burn his stinky campfire every night so I have to close the house up.
I've been busy, putting stuff up on eBay and throwing stuff out. I filled up three grocery bags full of papers to take to the city recycling to be shredded (so much easier than one page at a time). I've been going through my violets, re potting and tossing extras that aren't worth keeping. I managed to send out quite a few to new homes a couple weeks ago. I also sent some tubers of the unusual iris I got from grandma on Lindbergh Street to friends in Missouri and Michigan. I have lots of it here but at least it will be shared so I won't loose it when we move (just in case what I bring doesn't take).
A type of Japanese Iris bought many years ago.
My daughter in Australia had a very sad day yesterday. One of her cats, Iggy, developed sudden and severe kidney problems and did not respond to medication. He passed away at the vet's on Wednesday (Thursday the 21st in Australia).
