Twenty posts . . . and counting

Wow, twenty posts so far (and this makes twenty-one . . . ). 

Last year, in the entire year, there were only forty-two!  In less than two months, I'm halfway there.

Of course, my posting attitudes have changed. Sometimes I post twice a day (like today).  I don't really care about having something worthwhile to say; I am more interested in an at least partial record of what is going on in my life.

At left, a deep, deep pink hyacinth photographed in the mudroom.  I love the rough look of the peeling wood.  The hyacinth are a color I don't think I've seen before in the supermarket (nursery catalogs have everything) and I just couldn't resist them.  I also have a blue about to pop and my old white hyacinth, now resting until next year.  The fragrance is so intense it fills the kitchen, where I usually keep them.

Andrew Weil recommends having fresh flowers in the house for mental health.  I can understand why.

One last jubilant comment - finally, one of my amaryllis is reblooming!  Huzzah and three cheers!!  Hope springs eternal.
