Wednesday, July 27, 2005 at 07:30PM … ok - missing you.
know where you are - know where you’ve been. want you to know that the
sun is shining somewhere - even if it’s cloudy in your own backyard.
say something.

not 9 to 5
Monday, July 25, 2005 at 05:46PM when outside of those hours, i have to admit that i am addicted to colourful, comfy clothes.
somedays the wizard suggests that it looks like a clown has thrown up on me.

i struggle with aphyds...
Monday, July 25, 2005 at 05:42PM … no, not in the office… in my morning glories in the rooftop
oasis. i grew those little devils in water and papertowels,
migrated them to their own pots, helped them climb every possible
railing on the oasis, and grinned when they let forth their first
bloom.
now they are sick.
insecticidial soap seems to be competing with the aphyds in sucking the
life out of my glories. i am at a loss. they got another bath tonight,
cool water, a good rub on each leaf, cleaning out the critters, with
fingers crossed. i swear, if there’s another yellow leaf tomorrow, i’m
going to jump.

rain...
Sunday, July 17, 2005 at 10:17AM last night - today - for the past 12 hours or so. I am thrilled.
The roof oasis is less so - flower blossom shrapnel everywhere.
The wiz returns tonight after excessive hockey shenanigans. I hope he’s thriving in this heat.

dog problem....
Saturday, July 16, 2005 at 08:44AM the small dog’s nose is a mess of broken blisters for some strange
reason. they flowered over the night - and on friday - we woke to
a very unattractive nasal protrubence… she isn’t thrilled.
neither are we. and she continues to display her ‘non-thrilled’
feelings by rubbing what remains of her nose all over the place -
leaving a trail of blood and gore.
my trick today - on what should be a ‘kick back and do all the
things i never think of doing when the wiz is around’ sort of day, i am
calling verterinary clinics in desperation - trying to find a suitable
- walking - distance medical solution for the beastie.
i told her she wasn’t that homely with all the gruesome ooze, and she hid behind a chair.
she didn’t believe me.

a view from the roof...
Tuesday, July 12, 2005 at 09:00PM looking across the lake, some days seeing hamilton, stony creek, burlington; but most days not seeing farther than the end of the pier,
like tonight… and it seems like we are in a bubble of haze and faded sunlight.
the patio is a warm oasis, with the oleander tree now in bloom,
dancing towards the sun every time i move her around. the
sweetpeas have grown up, and the smell makes me close my eyes and smile.
almost every rung of the staircase is dressed in morning glory, and i
wait for the morning when the railing is formalized in pinks and
purples and yellows.
even though i can’t see the other side of the lake, what i see inside
the corners of my garden seems to more than make up for it now.

So Wake Up Wake Up Little Susie
Three Cheers For The Red White and Blue
I’m Goin’ To Chicago Babe, Sorry I Can’t Take You
You Can Row Row Row Your Boat, Gently Down the Stream
And Let That Midnight Special, Shine Its Ever-Lovin’ Light On Me
‘Cause I’ve Been Workin’ On the Railroad, All the Live Long Day
So You’d Be the Proudest Lady in the Easter Parade
On the East Side West Side All Around the Town
Like that Bridge Over Troubled Waters I’m Gonna Lay Me Down.
