Flowers....

I rarely buy flowers for myself.  In the winter I'm too cheap and in warm weather there's usually something blooming in my yard.  The flaw in that plan is that I hardly ever CUT flowers from my garden.  I just hate to do it.  One year I decided to grow a separate row of flowers in my vegetable garden just for cutting.....  Wellllllll.....they were SO gorgeous I just couldn't cut any. 

Every spring however I buy myself hyacinths.  The scent is intoxicating and even my scent-impaired husband can smell them.

and of course I've been enjoying the flowers that people have sent to Judi....they make her room bright and fragrant.....and give me something to take pictures of as well....

Judi seems to have finally calmed down is and is sleeping heavily.  Brandie from hospice should be here soon.  I somehow managed to wrench my back and it hurts like hell.  At least there are lots of drugs in the house.....
