With a touch of Russian sage

I could have called this " no no don't do the iOS upgrade on the iPad"
I couldn't get apps because.......my App Store is based in Australia. I read it was a common side effect of the iOS upgrade.
Actually I am planning a trip down under (hopefully) in the spring ........how odd that my iPad apps got there first.
I fixed it after searching the internet. You know, you can find anything on the internet. Although I read a quote yesterday "don't trust everything you read on the internet".......Abraham Lincoln.

I worked on the. mighty jungle vegetation in front of my house. There are three monstrous mounds from hell shrubs on either side of the porch. I chopped most of them down. There is a wicked pile of branches and weeds wrapped in a tarp in my front yard. A trip to the dump tomorrow is in my husband's future. Actually they call it a transfer station. The people that work there are very very strict. They scare me.

So other than that, I am convinced that Mercury must be in retrograde. Nothing works for me. My wifi died yet again. I spent an hour on the phone with Time Warner cable. It's now fixed. It has severely effected my ability to respond to blips. So tonight I will catch up.

Thanks to so many of you who put my water flowers into the spotlight. I really appreciate it.
I am always surprised and humbled. Most people tell me they follow my journal for my writing so when the picture is well received it makes me happy.
That picture was suggested by Raven68 my friend Chris. Thanks Chris. It's always a great time with you and Linda.

And......tomorrow the house painting continues. Pete and Ryan are just adorable and I think I will blip them this week.
As of right now I hear a shower calling my name. The cats won't even sit with me.
Well good night to the north and G'day to down under.
