It's weird. I was a much, much better blogger when I was sad and lonely.

Then you turn your back for a second and they are all grown up.<br /><br />As for cats, I am owned by several, and there is no fathoming them. They like it that way.messymimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10649529601786689712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5265757842252897204.post-47574577287403207712010-05-27T20:22:35.008-07:002010-05-27T20:22:35.008-07:00Color riot outside.

I love that yard. <br /><br />Once upon a time I had azaleas all over the place. The first few years I was afraid to touch them (brown thumb syndrome). I killed a bunch of petunias once by fertilizing them, so these azaleas were just going to have to survive their own way. <br /><br />Then one year I had to move a few of them to make room for a bigger patio. Those came back the next year stronger than ever. Hmmm ... I read up on how to prune them (it's all about when) and in two more years, I was Mr. Azalea. No matter how rough I was with them, rearranging the yard, they always came back even stronger. I almost think they liked having their roots out for fresh air every few years for the glory of it. LOL. And last time I visited Richmond, they were all huge. Interesting to look at your own garden sometimes and realize every plant has its own personality. "Oh yeah, you never did like it in the sun, did you?"<br /><br />And roses like aspirin.

Such beauty abounds right outside your windows..seems a perfect setting to me..and if it grows that good without your interference so much the better. So you adopted an ingrate of a cat..does he not like fresh tuna..?? <br />Perhaps the hermit in you is like the hermit in him..you both need some tasty morsels before you will share. <br />Have a great weekend:)Far Side of Fiftyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07995757632158408442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5265757842252897204.post-68982667939615933522010-05-27T14:19:20.556-07:002010-05-27T14:19:20.556-07:00Lovely post Lo.
