Tile-Breaking Therapy

As you can see, hubby got me a new camera. However, it has been an emotionally mixed day. I got the camera this morning, then as I drove to the store to get a frame for a project I heard the dreaded words "License and registration, please." *&(%(@#$%(

Yup, got a $140 ticket today. I was looking for the store and was on the right lane to turn...and then realized it was really the next turn where I needed to go...well, I drove over five feet of white stripes (the ones that indicate a right turn)...a semi-calculated wrong-doing since there was not a soul around me...next thing you know, just like that, a copper is flashing its lights at me. The rest is history. $140, yup, a rather harsh punishment for someone with no ticket history. Oh well.

So I drove home, sobbing like an eeediot, used the frustration to break tiles (very Greek, right?) and continued my slow-going mosaic project.

UGH! Still mad about being so dumb.

Anyhow, below are some pics of what's blooming these days around the 140 buck-poorer home of ours.

I'll add the names of the plants tomorrow...too tired tonite :-)
