July 1st

I got a cold on Monday, so I have been mainly "at home".... people don't appreciate you showing up with your kleenex at their gatherings!


Our apartment building has some agapanthus growing by the garage. I "borrowed" one bloom to enjoy in my home... there were lots of flowers so I don't feel too badly about cutting one for me. I do miss having my own garden ... it was always nice to go out, clippers in hand, to bring in a bloom or two to brighten up my home.

After being a little stir crazy by staying home most of the week, I took myself off to Costco and found some 100% cotton summer jammies. I had been looking for quite a while, trying to find some for Elsa. Most of the pajamas out there are very cheap with polyester and all these themed characters from Disney and other commercial products. They are really ugly and I refuse to have my granddaughter advertise a movie or entertainment industry.
WOW, a lecture!

Anyway, I was thrilled to find these simple basic jammies with very little design. It took 9 stores before I found what I really wanted.

Yep... I don't know what is going on... I have had so many colds. This one is not too bad and I am almost back to normal... I did miss seeing Elsa today, I was too pooped... hope to see her over the weekend.
