OMG, menopause! PMS is bad enough. I would love to get rid of those troublesome organs that are of no use to me.
I mean, I love kids, as long as they are other people\'s kids. But, I don\'t want children myself. My sister has taken care of continuing the family line.
As far as I know, there is no such thing as an elective hysterectomy anymore. Doctors refuse to do it because of side effects like bone thinning, or something. I just turned 30. So maybe that\'ll make a difference. The doctor could think I would change my mind.
Yeah, fat chance! It\'s a Catch 22.
If the NGA format gives you grief, I\'ll chat with you here, Carrie. The transition at DG was a nightmare, but it looks like it\'s over. One format is as good as another to me as long as it works the way it is supposed to.
A deer came and dined on the foundation beds. She ate most of the foliage off a lily and broke the stem of a resurrection lily. (Lycoris squamigera) I need to make a deer ghost to keep them out of the flower beds. That is really only a fishing line strung up around the beds. It spooks the deer because they can\'t see the filament. Sarge moved his Naked Ladies, the common name he prefers for resurrection lilies. He likes the shock value of telling people about the naked ladies in his garden. lol
The first photo is a moss rose (Portulaka) and the second is an Elephant Ear growing in the asparagus bed. The contrast between the huge leaves of the Elephant ear and the fern-like asparagus really caught my eye.
Sarge and Kay took the day off. Smart move. 97 after all the rain we had really did make it a sauna outside, Ugh. It was one of those days when I think gills would be more useful than lungs.
