Flower Power


So I was deadheading flowers yesterday - a marigold seed head was caught in a pocket corner - what a disaster in the washer. The (white) pants are totally ruined - dye all over in splotches and another pair is stained on the behind.

I did the pre-wash thing and added dry bleach - didn't touch it. I'm considering chlorine bleach as the slacks are ruined anyway - I understand now how American Native Indians used plants for dye. It works!

Good Morning to Me - - -


So, I opened the kitchen blind which "caught" the lamp shade which moved the coffee carafe which knocked a glass on the floor - breaking it.

How's your morning going?

On another note, fall is in the air even tho it's 30 degrees (90) during the day. When I look out at 7am and open windows, there is a distinct dampness which wasn't there last week and the bright blue sky has high wispy clouds. Have a great day, I'm off the find my long johns.
