What A Difference A Day Makes
Oh man! How excited was I, when, sitting out on the back porch drinking my morning coffee, I look out over the yard and discover that overnight the Irises have all come to bloom. Just like that. Could there be a better way to start the day? Was it that last round of late night watering (like they need any more), or yesterday’s mid-day weeding that did it? I don’t know, but I appreciate the early morning ‘thank you’ all the same. Jesus, I think I’m getting old.
