hmmm....

I am up at 4:30 in the morning. Actually I was up at 3:45 a.m. Why? Dunno. Maybe I can snooze from 5 to 7 or so.

Yard work done yesterday: Moved some monkey grass and this other pretty ground cover I have, planted radishes. More stuff to move, but an hour of that and I'm tired.

Bridal shower at noon. I think we're going to have a beautiful, sunny day. YAY!

That's it.

Wow

I've been reading about the man who killed a guard at the Holocaust museum. He blows the theory that one mellows with age. I sure wouldn't want to be 88 years old and filled with such hate. I can't imagine living with it that long either. Hate destroys a person. How do people get like that? I don't know.

This guy was also a Holocaust denier. Good grief. How in the world anyone can believe that it didn't happen? That just boggles my mind. It's not like there isn't film footage, photographs and volumes and volumes of meticulous records kept by the Nazis - not to mention the survivors and liberators who have spoken out. What is wrong with these people? A bunch of whack jobs is all I can say.

I worked at a Zionist camp one summer and met a concentration camp survivor and saw the number tatooed on her arm. That was something to remember. I had so much fun at that camp and learned so much. I still remember the songs in Hebrew. What a beautiful language. Too bad I lost contact with the people I met there. It would be interesting to see them again.

That is all.

Garden, etc.

I FINALLY got all my veggie plants planted yesterday. Thanks to Amy for the use of her little rototiller - it was a lifesaver. And it's so cute. :) There are a lot of tomato plants. What was I thinking? Hopefully it will be a bountiful harvest so I can share and even can some. I have: red and yellow peppers, cucumbers, tomatoes, tomatoes, tomatoes, leaf lettuce, basil, oregano,tarragon, mystery herb,and this really cool sugar plant. My neighbor gave me the sugar plant and the leaves can be used to sweeten coffee, etc. How cool.

Of course, there is still cleaning up to do in the yard and the lawn needs mowing again. What I don't understand is why yard waste can't go in the Herbie. It's natural, degradable stuff. I have no place to put it and they charge a lot for a yard waste container and you have to take it for the season, not just one or two months. How rude.

I am totally addicted to the FarmTown on Facebook. Plus I found a new game called Zilch which is a dice game and is sooo fun too. That's what I need - another game to be addicted to. :)

No breaking news to discuss because I didn't want to think about it. The Red Wings won though :). I watched a little of the game. I like hockey.

I need new Eli video because I've watched "Music Time" 900 times. It's so much fun to see him and hear him talk. I just don't know how he can be 2 already. Sigh.

And that is all.
