A Short Update

Research indicates that six out of seven dwarfs aren't happy.

From the Garden

I've heard a lot of sad and/or difficult news in the past few days. In addition, it's the anniversary of the passing of two people who were young and had so much life in them, and who are greatly missed by their families. So more for myself than anyone else, here's a reminder of some of the beauty that exists even in the midst of sad and trying days.

This is what's blooming in my yard these days (not including the annuals which don't lend themselves to cutting/arranging in bouquets.) I did this rather hurriedly this morning before work, so the light isn't the best. But even so, there's color and loveliness galore, which is soothing and healing. Ah.
