and ripped out the front half of the yard,
and replaced it with flowers. ❀

Strangers approached me at the grocer once to congratulate me on the completed job. ❤
It's like I had become part of their story, I materialized on their map, 回
by doing something odd like that.
But really I was just playing Veruca Salt about not wanting to mow the yard. ☯
The sunflowers came out a little ... silly
It wasn't supposed to!
I went outside with an almost-empty packet of seeds,
believing I had another full package inside;
alas... and then I forgot... until... eh heh
You know, if you're short an ingredient in a pot of soup,
it's no big deal, you can get it right the next night, right?
But in gardening, you have to wait all year for that second chance!
My mailbox is pretty shot, but the postman always has a big smile. So I think we're square on that.
Haha, it's like a pet jester,
wonder what she is looking at...
It's Tip the Squirrel! Isn't he cool! He always seems to be nearby, chillin'. He eats fruit scraps out of my compost and makes guest appearances. I've never seen a squirrel with a tail like that. When I realized his coat had a unique identifier, I started to see the unique identifiers on the other squirrels as well. One has a hole in his ear, and one's tail fibers appear invisible just before the tips, which are white, making her tail seem frosted/sparkly. And once I noticed the markers, I started to notice the distinctive personality traits...
but alas, the hour is late -- I shall have to return...! I hope that's a welcome idea! ✿

But now I know the name and can buy some seeds 
! The squirrels, from my study this summer, are easily as distinguishable in personality as humans are. Ok, we might be a little more complex. But just a little. 
A world without squirrels?! How is this possible!! Are you lost at sea? :O
