It was after 3 o’clock before I got to my backyard garden. Two days since I watered and my Topsy-Turvy upside-down tomato plants had wilted. It hasn’t been hot but there is probably a big root system to feed the large plants (and the planters aren’t extremely large).  I gave them lots of water and liquid fertilizer.  ~~  I checked the Bluebird house and saw a little red object that moved. My first Bluebird baby!!  Thrill, thrill!!

I worked all day yesterday at the JAARS open house (JAARS Day).  I went to bed at 8 o’clock because I was tired!!  Today I’ve been documenting clothing items, hats, shoes, purses and jewelry going to the Second Chance Boutique.  (A total of 120 items.)  This was my Red Hat Society wardrobe when I was active in a Chapter in Southern California (2003-2004).  ~~  Why am I documenting each item??  Because North Carolina really zaps me for taxes each year.  I’m OK with the standard deduction for Federal Income Taxes but North Carolina isn’t as generous.  I document my donations in a software program called It’s Deductible (and you can access it on the Internet).  ~~  I have a one-track-mind!!  It’s almost 5 o’clock and I haven’t had breakfast or lunch.  I think I’ll fix some supper!!
