Things are a'growin'

Peonies, daffodils, mint, chives, bleeding hearts, tulips, hens and chicks.

Things I actually planted last year? They are coming back! It's beautiful.

I wonder if this is how my dad felt when the first of the winter wheat sprouted. Or when the sunflowers came up. Or when the oats poked through the soil.

Shampoo
Toothpaste
B's patience

Things That I Have To Do:

Wrinkle Release all my clothes
Lay in the sun with a good book next to a pool before I lose my effin' mind

Good night.
