Teenager = Solution to a Screaming Baby

Elisheva came home from school and took him away.

Message from a nice Craigslister who lives nearby (I hope it's a SHE; her name's kind of neutral) when I told her I couldn't really afford to buy more plants right now:

>> Please come by later for a couple of clumps of forget-me-nots - a
>> little gift for your garden from me. I have tons of them.
>>

>> I will be in the garden from 4 to 8 p.m.

And then I thought - "in the garden from 4 to 8 p.m."?!?!?

What I wouldn't give to plan an uninterrupted stretch like that!

** 4 hours! **

In the garden!

She knew ahead of time! She planned it! Four straight hours in the garden!

That is like the extreme opposite of my life, where I steal five seconds for the garden here and there from the rest of my life.

So once the tuna-noodle is in the oven (it's shaping up nicely now that Elisheva took the screamy boy away) and once YM returns from school with "my" bike, I'm going to bike down there and pick me up a clump of forget-me-weeds, as one guy called them last year when he gave me a clump - that promptly died, I might add!! :-o

I saved out some plain noodles and plain tuna. Maybe Naomi will eat those, cuz I suspect she won't even look at the casserole.

It's Heart Month: 3 days left to save lives!

Dear Friends & Family: Hi, everybody! Sorry I can’t stop by in person... you're a bit out of my area. :-) We’re out walking up and down on our street on this beautiful afternoon to raise money for Heart & Stroke. This cause is important to me (I won't say it's close to my heart , because that would be tacky!). I hope you'll join me by donating online. Growing up, I watched as every single one of my grandparents' lives were shortened by heart disease and strokes, and my father had a defibrillator that saved his life on more than one occasion. Heart disease and stroke kill 1 in 3 Canadians and are the #1 killer of women. Please click this link to be redirected to my main page at the Heart & Stroke website: http://tinyurl.com/AtlasHeart Thus ends my personal appeal. Official information follows. :-))) ----- Heart disease and stroke is the #1 killer of women - taking more women's lives than all forms of cancer combined. But no one is immune. Th
