After t-storms, strong wind, and rain, everything looks refreshed outside, other than some broken limbs.  Plants have doubled in size overnight, and new flowers have bloomed.  Trees are breathing a sigh of relief.  I can feel it myself.

E continues to make house repairs and paint, while I’ve been chipping away at the paper mountain like a chipper-shredder.  I wish I had one!  But I think I’ve finally learned my lesson about saving crap and baggage.  I heartily recommend downsizing while you still can, so others won’t have to do it after you.

Here are some wet, happy flowers and tomatoes.
