This is Canada?
Posted on November 20th, 2009 5 commentsYou may ask, “Jean, what did you do today?”
Well, other than going out for a fantastic breakfast (second one of the morning and the better of the two), I watered my shrubs, etc.
“What?” you may ask. “I thought you lived in Canada. Shouldn’t you be up to your eyebrows in snow by now?”
Technically, yes. Or at least up to my ankles. However, it is so dry at the moment, I decided I’d better go out and water things so they won’t die.
While on my watering mission, I discovered two very interesting things. Things I don’t normally see in my garden in November. And thus, I share the photographic evidence of my discoveries.
Oh, look! A volunteer Johnny Jump-up. How cute.
Oh, crap. Those are my tulips!
Rescue mission time…
Awww… tulips for me? How sweet.

Christopher W., I do believe you were warned about that before you married me. Or maybe you were warned about my inability to live without kitties in my life. Hmmm. One or the other.
