I'm so happy your application was accepted. Best of luck with the move.

That is great, Andi! Photos, we want photos when you get there.

Andi - Yay on being approved! Now comes the horrible part.. the moving! As much as I would like to move out of my town (too WASP for me.. I'd prefer a little more multiculturalism for my personal tastes.. plus water! I would *love* to live where there's more water!!), I do NOT want to ever move again. It sucks!

Thanks. I am making a list of the plants that I am moving. I'll have to share it online to get ideas for combinations.

It has been too hot to dig, so I am packing inside today. I also made some mayo, deviled eggs, and 3 bean salad so that I would have some healthy things to eat on the go for the next couple of days.

I am heading out to water. I'll try to post some pictures later. I am trying ubuntu. this "intuitive' software isn't intuitive at all for me. I am still waiting for parts for other machines.

Running out to water and walk Winston the pug. he wanted to stay outside all day today. I read that pugs don't tolerate heat well, but he handles it better than I do.

Packing is a pain, but I am so happy to be leaving this place and looking forward to setting up the new place. It is amazing (and kind of embarrassing) how much stuff one has.

No water bill in the new place (or the old). I made sure I had well water.

I cut back some of the potted roses. Some are dropping leaves. Others are blooming away happily. It depends how much root I got.

We had frost warnings last week and record hot temperatures today. I am hoping for cool and clear weather the end of the month.
