Well, most of my technical difficulties are taken care of now.

That means you have to listen to me gush about my garden.

At least right now, it looks like the garden is going to be gorgeous this year. The phlox my friend planted a few years ago are looking wonderful. Smelling up the whole yard with their lilac-ish scent. The Lilly-of-the-valley is also just starting to bloom. So those of you who know the song... Lillies-of-the-vally deck my garden walk!

It makes me happy.

The rose looks healthy and happy too.

The Japanese Wysteria.... I'm a little worried about. I keep reminding myself that it's only May, and not to rush things, but it's looking a little bit scrawny.

Oh! My holly bush has buds on it too! The one I thought I killed. (I know for sure I did kill the other one)

I can't wait to spend a whole lot of money on more plants. I've decided I love perenials best, because you don't have to put them in the ground again every year. Pay for them once and enjoy them again and again.

I sound like such a little old lady with a garden fetish.
