This photo just goes to prove that there IS a place for impulse purchasing. I wasn't sure about Dianthus 'Marble Garden Spice' but decided to give it a go. It bloomed all summer.

1. I have been married for 29 years. As a 19 year old bride, I have proudly defied the odds.
2. Not only hubby Steve, but our four kids have to deal with me. The oldest, a boy, is 26.
The other three are girls. The youngest is 17. Another has Asperger Syndrome, high functioning on the autism spectrum.
3. I love to annoy my teenagers by listening to rock music really loud. They're always asking me turn it down. I'm very immature.
4. I watch The Young and the Restless.
5. The older I get, the lazier I'm getting. My new computer addiction isn't helping.
6. I hate vegetables but I make up for it [I hope] by loving fruit.
7. I'm scared of Twitter.
8. I am working on a memoir when I can tear myself away from Blotanical.
9. One of my three cats is sleeping beside me as I type this. The other two are off making
mischief. I'm seriously in love with my cats.
10. I'm a budding wordsmith. I use closed caption on my TV. The dictionary is a good read and Microsoft research is my friend.
I think by now Honest Scrap has made the rounds. If you're reading this and you HAVEN'T been tagged, then consider yourself in the loop. But only if you want to.
I just hit the "Guru Blotanist" milestone so I'll be adding to my blog fave list. Be warned.
