This past week has been really hard, nationally. I know that some folks
think that the Supreme Court sending issues back to the states to handle is a
good thing. But not every state legislature has the best interest of people at
heart. With so much gerrymandering (I admit, it happens on both sides), I’m not
even sure that the state legislatures are representative of their states. But I
guess this means that we are all even more responsible for voting in all
elections – not just Federal.
On
another note, other than a couple of ridiculous pictures of me, this week is
all flowers all the time. Which is how the end of June, beginning of July
should be!
I roamed around the yard taking macro photos with my phone.
I possibly shouldn’t post this photo, but as you know #IHaveNoShame. I was listening to the latest Pendergast book and as usual something disgusting was happening. Later in the week I broke my rule about not eating while reading/listening to Pendergast books and I had Very Real Regrets. (But the book was excellent!)
I’ve started putting my eye makeup on first (because I saw someone else do it – in case any of the eye makeup gets on her face), and I was on my way to work when I realized that I completely forgot to put on the rest of my makeup. Ha! I guess you can’t undo 40 years of doing something the same way that quickly.
I just LOVE these giant
yellow daylilies!
Stopped by my dad’s house on
the way home & took a photo of his gorgeous blue hydrangea.
It’s morning glory season. For some reason I just love the white center. I find it a bit mesmerizing.
Well, see, I was just rather enthusiastically eating Cheetos at my desk at work, and somehow flang one into my cleavage. Sexy, no?
No photo.
More macro photos from around the yard. It sure is pretty around here.
That yellow daylily's a stunner. All of your flowers are beautiful -- and you have your very own morning glories! I agree that the white center's pretty darned cool. I laughed and laughed at the Cheeto photo -- but now I want Cheetos in the worst way. The grocery store is only three blocks away. Maybe I can contain myself.
ReplyDeleteJust remember that starting to eat Cheetos is a time investment because you really shouldn't do anything else with Cheeto dust on your fingers. :)
DeleteDay Lillies! They grew in the water zone.
ReplyDeleteI have some of those yellow daylilies. They are gorgeous. As for the 4th, we did not celebrate, cannot celebrate where this country is and is headed.
ReplyDeleteI totally understand.
DeleteThat Cheeto photo! LOL! You crack me up. Our day lilies have yet to show any signs of flowering.
ReplyDeleteHappy to entertain you! :)
DeleteI was not in a celebratory mood this Independence Day. As a woman, I have none, and as an Ohioan, my vote doesn't matter thanks to gerrymandering. It felt like an oppressive day.
ReplyDeleteYour lovely flowers, however, are the best fireworks show I've seen! Gorgeous.
Our flowers have definitely been "saving" us this year.
