jennlkI have spent altogether too much time driving this week. And sitting in unfamiliar chairs.
I have driven every car we own for at least two hours, sat on bleachers, in doctors' waiting rooms, in decent office chairs. So now I want to stay home and sit in my own chair.
Monday J had LASIK, so I drove 60+ min east and sat in the waiting room; Tuesday was a school election, so I sat in decent office chairs all day; Thursday we had to go to Hastings (90+ min west) to settle some of MiL's estate; Saturday SR graduated from Central, so I drove the van to MP, sat on basketball bleachers for three+ hours, packed up a lot of the apartment, and drove her car home. This week I need to spend time on the house, not driving around.
In garden news, the bleeding hearts in the front flowerbed have been making up for lost time, and have grown 18" in the last week, and are starting to bloom. The volunteer plants (which aren't as big) are already blooming. The white daffs in the NE bed popped into bloom one day last week, and the red tulips in the side door garden are blooming, adding another color to that bed (there's grape hyacinth, bluebells, squill, species tulips, anemones, and windflowers flowering in there right now). It will soon be shaded by the sand cherry, so it gets the early spring bulbs.
