I've dressed myself in butterflies today. I hope it helps me get through the time I will spend with Alex getting a cast.

Summer works this way: when I have time to water my garden there is plenty of rain. When I don't there is no rain and so much sun and heat the world wants to curl up in a ball. If my garden were closer to the house it would be easier but with no hose long enough (and having to cross the street) I carry the water down in watering cans. My poor peas are nearly falling over.
