Earlier I cut a buncha A** A*****s' daffodils (yeah, I still think of them that way) (she's the previous owner of this house), having heard on 'EMU that as much as 3"--7" of snow may accumulate by tomorrow evening. Then I bunched some of 'em up & took 'em to a few folks, and kept a vaseful for my dining room table. (Well, they're on the windowledge right now.)

As I went about town in LA & L's straw hat I had daffodils at my temples---two that had bent mid-stem. The scent was pretty grand. Maybe I believe in aromatherapy a little after all.

At the ReUse Center I performed my traditional relocation of an underappreciated item to the Fancy Stuff room. BTW, any of ya'll locals with a player piano: they have three big boxes of piano rolls @ $3 each. Including Humoresque & " 'Gimme' a Little Kiss, Will 'Ya' Huh?"

I started to deal with the mail & bills I've been putting off horribly. Good thing: I have only three more days to pay the car insurance & five days to take advantage of the best credit card roulette deal---the more recent envelope from that company offers a less appealing set of conditions. A weird thing happened, though, in that I found, in my car/tax stuff folder, H's car registration renewal notice from this winter, addressed to her at the address she moved to from here. I can't figure out when or how it got there, and what it's doing here at all. I've seen her exactly once since the date on which it was mailed, and she certainly didn't give it to me then.

Off to cook myself some dinner now---and not from a box in the freezer! How about them apples?

3-7" of snow?! Fer cryin' out loud! Good idea about cutting your daffodils. I bet they look and smell wonderful. We're just getting a bundle of rain over the next couple days over here. It's been a cold (relatively), dreary day, and David Jacobs-Strain (the slide guitarist) got canceled cuz of the weather. Bummer. But R&I got a bunch done today, so we can have a more leisurely Sunday. Trade offs, trade offs.

I left a fair number of flowers out there, just in case they survive, but yeah it seemed good to save some.

Glad you've been productive. I could've been more so, but I have all day tomorrow, right?

Yes, Scarlett . . .

You mean you actually live in a house where Ms. Ann Arbor herself lived? Our city's namesake? Cool!

Oops. One too many letters in the last name. It must have been her English cousin, Ms. Ann Arbour

All that snow outside is troubling. And more falling. It's just wrong.

But one thought for you. We get the same sunlight today that we get on August 18. It won't dare stay long.

Snow

I heard y'all got some April snow. I'm sorry. But surely this will be the last litle blast of winter for you.
