I love Portland -- the tomato I have had growing in a pot is still thriving -- having someone come over to give me an estimate on building large planting boxes in my yard -- i am sad to think the buyer of my old house is probably plowing up my roses, but I dug one up and it just about did in my back -- haven't lost any more weight, but my clothes are looser

happy beginning of the shadow half of the year, all.

love, me
