Iris seem to be the thing these days here in our Never Summerland otherwise known as Colorado. They are blooming late, but they, along with the poppies and the occasional peony are blooming. Storms come and go. Mr. Man is still thinking outside the box, which is frustrating, since all of his tests (and x-rays and ultrasounds) have come back looking stellar. So I am trying to join him in his thought process, and am planning to create a slate “throne” for him. We’ll see if that helps.
Berthoud, Colorado.

Daily gratitudes:
The light after a storm
Yesterday morning’s full moonset
The grape-scented iris that Carrie brought me
The big man skipping through Sam’s Diner with the little girl today
The light in MKL’s eyes when he looks at me

Hi Amy!
Is MM actively ill or having a “box issue” or both? At least we can be happy his labs are looking ok…

Just a sudden onset (continuing) of box issues, Maureen.

Do you watch “My Cat From Hell” on Animal Planet? I’ve learned a lot about the psychology and physiology of felines re: the litter box from that show.

I’ve thought about watching it, but that’s as far as I’ve gotten. Maybe I should give it a try.

So Does That Mean I'm Southern
What beautiful Iris – All of mine are lavender or purple – Maybe I need to consider an addition to my collection

I don’t remember seeing so many irises as we have this year, and never this late. I love the peach ones!
