When we bought our house in June, the yard was an overgrown jungle. We mowed it, but that’s all we’ve done by way of landscaping. A few weeks ago, neat surprises began popping up in the strangest places.
For instance there is a red camellia in the front yard, but two pale pink ones in the back:
There are snow drops just behind the front gate:
and Daffodils growing in the strangest places. Patches of daffodils, just coming up in the center of the back yard.
It’s beginning to look like spring here in Georgia.

Tags: flat hair
I have very thick hair. Very. Thick. Hair. So thick that when it was long, if I braided it wet (which was the only way I could braid it) it was still wet when I took it down at the end of the day. As a result, I don’t blow dry it when it’s long. So until I had my hair cut in August, I hadn’t blow dried it since sometime in 1998.
When I did get my hair cut in August, I lifted Jonathan’s art drying blow dryer for a few weeks, until smoke came out of the back of it. Then, I bought a new blow dryer. Knowing how I tax them, I didn’t get a $5 generic one. I got a pretty good $20 blow dryer at Target. Last week I turned it on and it . . . well the only way to express it would be lightly breathed on my head. AAAAGH.
So I’ve got flat hair funk, and I’m trying to figure out if I can afford $20 on a hair dryer every 2 months!
