I'm taking tomorrow off. I'm going to plant a new clematis. I'm going to haul some more rocks for my pond. I'm going to transplant some astilbe. I'm going to be hurting on thursday. It's supposed to be a beautiful sunny spring day tomorrow. Can't wait.

DH took today off and went fishing. He caught a salmon. I hope he has it cooked by the time I get home.

Toodles, cows. See yas thursday.

Cookie-- I think we only met briefly...I'm sorry about your loss... and re-gain. DH and I were talking about how we both eat for solace and comfort and even entertainment... And since it's our 2nd marriage we know better than to nag each other... but it is still hard.
Glad you are back -- I covet your avatar!

Wabby-- I think Clematis sounds like a disease. There's a knitted scarf pattern that also sounds "unclean": Clapotis (it's French, so the "s" is silent).

Kiwi/Chips Michelob!! Hope your sunburn retreats and that you enjoy the colleges. My alma mater has a free screen saver. I wish I'd been smart enough to appreciate the beautiful campus (and friendly profs) when I was there.

Cowie-- DS will have a blast with Japanese. If he wants to e-mail or IM my son, who went to Japanese camp there for 6 years and was a camp cook/counselor for 2 more... let me know.... Be sure to get the strongest mosquito repellant you can find!!! Mori No Ike rocks!
How is job interview process?

I need to go to bed. Maybe I can catch up during the DAY on Thursday.
Be well.

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome back.
