Perky Fleurs
Woke up this morning & stumbled on down the stairs to make a cup of tea, and what should I find waving at me through the garden windows? Bright, cheery, unashamedly perky flowers!
It seems that the gentlemen who previously owned our house left us a few pleasant surprises in the garden for springtime…now I just need to find time to get up before the bees to pull some weeds and do some pruning of the old stuff!
We have pink and yellow tulips, and when I went to take a picture from a better angle, I spotted this lonely little girl standing off in a corner by one of the garden lights…
Absolutely gorgeous. Made my morning, as I woke up with my back screaming at me and all sorts of other unpleasant girly things that I won’t go into. My back has been giving me problems for a couple of months now, and only just finally got around to making a visit to the chiropractor’s office. Since it’s been years since I last visited, they did a full assessment, and I’ll find out the results today. I got a pretty good idea from Dr. J, who made some pretty telling comments about my hip being so out of alignment that my left leg is slightly twisted & consequently shorter than the other by about an inch or two. Yeah, that will cause some problems.
So while I was waiting for all this to happen, I whipped out the Robinsock and did a few rows. Apparently they see quite a few knitters, and have to tell them to stop hunching over their work. I guess I shouldn’t be telling them that I’ve been spinning too… 
Yes, that’s their website address. If you need a chiropractor, I highly recommend them.
Finally…since it’s the weekend, I leave you with the following example of “Ur Doing It Wrong”.
I was getting ready to leave work the other day, when I noticed that the silver car ahead of me was parked rather oddly over the lines. Notice that there is plenty of space to park on either side of it. Little black car comes whipping into the lot, pulls up *proportionately* next to the silver car, and this girl gets out and hurries into the building (license plates have been deliberately blurred to protect privacy). You notice that she didn’t even stop to consider that maybe…just maybe….she was doing it wrong?
Maybe it’s just my sense of symmetry that’s affronted, but c’mon…
Happy weekend!
