Here it is, my birth month eve day. Sound confusing? It can be, unless you realize that I celebrate my birthday all month. Doesn't everyone?
With the day off of work, I'm going to see how much I can clear up around here. The fire ants are trying to invade the house, looking for water (meaning they get in every so often by the sink) so it's time to do something about them. I think they've managed to build a hill under the house somewhere. I hate those things!
It's warmed up a bit, too, and is into the 70s. I have my plants back outside and my geraniums are going very well. I have one I need to repot. My cat ate my pixie lily, so I'm waiting to see if that comes back. She at the impatiens, too, but it's flowering again, happy to be out of her reach. That cat will eat anything!
I've been knitting happily along. I got a dishcloth done in variegated greens the other day. I'll have to dig out my flour sack towels and decide on some designs on those. I may draw my own and personalize a few. Quilting pens are very handy for that.
The Advisory Board sent me a book called Above Suspicion by Lynda La Plante. Looks good! I hope to get to that one this coming week.

We're planning our flower planting. We have a huge bed in the back that kicks our butts every year, but I hope we have a good enough plan to conquer it this time around!
We're thinking of building one of those simple outdoor "rooms" with curtains for walls and even a couple of windows built in. I wish I knew where a picture was so I could show you. It was on the cover of a magazine. It would be a nice place to be out reading.
