Mary: house messes get worse the older the kids get Hurray! at least at my house. I'd like to run away! Or hire a huge dumpster and shove it all in and live lean and clean like I once did. Thanks for the skinny on the flowers. I will see what i can do with them. It's been pouring on and off this morning since 245 and looks like I might be able to head out at 930 if it dries off some.

AM: I need to go get the wagon out of the garage and haul up my dahlias and move them to the porch. I think I have 42 to haul up which will be about 4 trips to the front and 7 trips each way to the basement for that many. I can do 6 per tote ride up. But once out of the house I will be happy and hope they are on their way.

Right now packing garden mojo. Should work on 4h meeting stuff, moving those plants and figuring out my iris mess. When I started I never saved their names. Now that I'm older and wiser I'm trying figure this out. So I went through everything I have a name on (all the new to me) however a bunch of them that are new to me, haven't bloomed yet and some of them that have aren't as named. So I wonder about the other ones. I'm hoping for a ton of blooms. Not sure they will. I have a bunch on the southside readying to bloom. The rest are all just very tall leaves.

Once the bus goes I'll get my shoes on and go see about the move out. Enjoy your day of good!
Summer, after all, is a time when wonderful things can happen to quiet people. For those few months, you're not required to be who everyone thinks you are, and that cut-grass smell in the air and the chance to dive into the deep end of a pool give you a courage you don't have the rest of the year. You can be grateful and easy, with no eyes on you, and no past. Summer just opens the door and lets you out. – Deb Caletti: Honey, Baby, Sweetheart
