1. In a winter garden

One of the rose trees has 7 buds, one of which will bloom this weekend. The other has several new leaves sprouting, as its two blossoms are spent. I am so thrilled that they are both thriving! The other plants brought in from the cold are surviving so far. I am thinking of potting the snapdragons that seeded themselves, they are such lovely shades of ruby, before a killer frost or snow comes along....

This year I am trying to bring my home environment into the state of supporting my needs. I've been limping along for several winters in chaos and limited functionality, but this winter something needs to get better. While I am feeling better myself, I am still coughing and even sneezing, and have been doing so since the second week of August. Enough already! I have reverted to chocolate therapy, even. It does help with mood and motivation....

Found out today that I have been in my new gig for 13.5 months....thought it was only a year. Time flies when it isn't killing you minute by minute. I guess, if you can't remember when you signed up, it's a good job.
