Even though I couldn’t delude myself into making my usual annual birthday declaration that “this year I’m going to write in my blog EVERY DAY,” I am feeling the urge to post more! Here’s a photo my uncle took of me and my conscientious security detail at my sister’s wedding in Colorado. (Okay, it’s me and my cousin. But he was conscientious in keeping stray raindrops off my hairsprayed ‘do.)

Now to the garden, to get beds ready for tomatoes, basil, and peppers. It suddenly feels almost too late, but it’s not, it’s just the first really warm weekend in ages.
