Into Mulch
I got home from work to find that Management had mulched all of our gardens today.
I have seven, maybe eight sunflowers that survived the mulching. Two don’t look too healthy though.
I don’t know why I bother.

New Kitten.
The friend I went to Boston with has nineteen cats. I think I may have mentioned this in my diary previously. She’s an absolute sucker for a cat in need. The clinic where she practices at took in a homeless kitten while she was in Boston last week. They named it “Twenty” in her absence,…
More Energy = More Update
The first day went fine, though it was not what I expected. Working back in the pharmacy means working in your own little world. Based on one day’s experience, there is virtually no opportunity to meet any co-workers but the ones who work the pharmacy. As far as that went, I am apparently the only…
That’s Bartonella, folks.
The more things change, the more they stay the same.” Sometime I want to be the one responsibe for creating one of those witty bon mots that get so overused that they become abused and nearly invisible in the spoken and written language. Anyhow, here we go with another “different day, but same old entry”…
Aspirus … It’s just plain scary
I just checked in with my site meter, and nearly half my hits from today have been from various “Aspirus” searches. My diary floats to the top of the list of most of these searches now. I’m starting to think I’m tampering with powers far beyond my ability to control.

I was in a rush, heading from my office to a side door in the main building that opened to a room full of work waiting for me to attend to. There’s been a lot of construction going on in this section of the building, and the workers had just today dumped a couple of…
When the Squirrels Come Back to Cats in Windows
(Feel free to sing title to the tune of “When the Swallows Come Back to Capistrano”.) I remarked to the Prof several times this summer that with the old oak gone out front (see entry from January 17, 2011: Like An Oak On The Wire regarding that sad day) the squirrels on our property seemed…
bite your tongue! WINTER? oh no, give me warmth.
of course, my kitties are lounging in A/C. cacti in a window box sounds great!
What about a fruit and cheese tray? Lots of melon, apples, pineapple & grapes with a couple different types of cheese to off set the sweetness of the fruit.
OK, now I’m hungry.

How about a crisp as a goodie option? After reading your post earlier, I got to thinking about what might constitute unusual. I posted one of our favorites; Rhubarb Crisp.
Of course, given your heat wave, ice cream sounds good too. Oooo ice cream over Rhubarb Crisp. yummmm
I like allimom’s suggestion about the fruit and cheese tray. You might add some olives or something to it, also.
Sorry to hear about your pansies. They are fragile where the heat is concerned. Last year was strange though as I managed to get all of mine though the summer looking pretty good *shrugs*.
Well, to put it none too delicately, SHIT. I am assuming that you have asked them to advise you before they do anything like that?
Freakin’ flower killers.
Is this the garden up off your patio or the one with the Canterbury Bells?
Did they give any warning or explanation for why they did this? I would pitch three kinds of a fit to them if that happened to me.
