Time for roses!
Categories: Gardening, Uncategorized, Weather
After almost a week of rain, Friday the first sharp bit of yellow showed against the glorious dark green of the rose bush. Saturday, the bud had blossomed. Today, it’s already ragged. The first roses on this bush tend to go very quickly, especially if we get a hot day like yesterday. I always find it remarkable how quickly the color fades as well. Today is glorious, breezy and comfortable though. A perfect Sunday!
Yesterday was a great day for getting projects visioned. A trip to JoMar’s with alysten (thank you for hosting!), spinpsychology and lissa510 resulted in more fabric than I’d anticipated but I stayed under budget and got some good fabric for Fop pants. My find of the day was a bolt of purple-y wool which will turn into something happy and Norse. I also got a shirt pulled apart so I can adapt it for a pattern. It’s always more fun to do project stuff with people around!
Today is more mundane: laundry, house work, errands. The windows are open, the cat is ottering and calling the mothers is next on the agenda. Whee!
