randiland; seriously. We seem to be cut from an at least strikingly similar bolt of cloth..and you would be missed.
*~*~*
So. The yard got done. With a minimum of disaster, and in eerie silence, apparently, as I wasn't woken but once - and that was by my son, telling me it was finished. Huzzah.
It looks AMAZING. They even found more 'wild' rocks and added to the wall shoring up the hillock..AND Teh Man dug up some wild violets (love them) in the woods across the road, and potted them in a wicker plantstand..AND bought me some sort of blackish-purple four- and three-leaf clovers in a wee pot. THANK GOD, they left the raspberries alone, and the ivy, as well.
Yes, he was politely (and sincerely) thanked.

Somehow, it's all just dissipated. All of it.

Am taking my mother to the fabulous Chinese restaurant (that we went to, last night) for dinner on Monday. Yay.
While talking on the phone, she mentioned that she'd found this odd cassette tape under the seat in her car, and that, 'There were all these great songs on it!', and how much she loves it, listens to it everyday, etc, etc. She thought it was really weird, though, that sporadically throughout the tape, there is someone saying, 'Now, we will cut the cake.' and, 'Now, we will open presents.', and all sorts of stuff. Ha. It turns out that that is the recording (by my P) of the 60th birthday party we had for her years ago - People came from ALL over (from as far away as Japan and Pittsburgh and Illinois and Delaware) for it, and P had deejayed it.
What a neat thing - what neat memories - you can even hear my late Grandmom, talking in the background. I HAD to call P about it - it made his day, actually - and he wants to convert it to CD for her, so she can have it for always. SO cool.
