Making Some Changes

It looks as if we might finally be starting on the renovation work. The stove is almost as old as I am, and so is the wallpaper. And did I mention the lavender toilet? No. Really. It's lavender. And the sink matches.

I've been doing some gardening. The back yard (well, the whole yard, really) is madly overgrown. So, I'm doing it in stages. I planted some bouganvilla (sp?) against the back fence. When we rolled up to the counter with 8 plants, the nice lady at the garden center asked "Who are you trying to keep out?" "The neighbors" I replied. They have two of the sweetest Golden Retrievers there. That's really why I go there, to play with the dogs.

We did some sightseeing yesterday, a drive out to the country. I'll post pictures later.

Thanks for your suggestions about newspapers. It probably won't surprise you to learn that they aren't available here. I'm determined to figure something out, though.
