Tree Candles...

good evening!

before i pop into bed

just thought i'd write this.

today has been a busy day

getting all mr p's stuff together for his passport application

&

i spent way to much time in waiting for him

in a hot car with the sun streaming in

&

my patience being sorely tested.

the first application was rejected

as i hadn't realised my printer had shaved a tiny bit off the bottom of every page

of the application...

so after going to mr p's workplace to get the boss to sign and verify the photo

we had to revisit him to get the page filled in and signed all over again.

then the post office rang to say mr p's boss hadn't filled in the back of the photo correctly,

so we had to pay him a third visit,

then go back to the post office another time as well

to drop it in.

finally at about 4.30 pm

the application was ready and accepted.

thank God we live in a small town

and our house is only just up the road from the main street

so our running around was not much in kilometres

only in the time it still took

to get things right.

continuing the theme of garden treasures...

these plants kind of tumbled out of a tree last year

so i just put bits of them back in other places

and this year they've bloomed spectacularly.

i call them tree candles

but i'm sure they have a real name!

this plant flourishes just like spanish moss

on fresh air and sunshine...

no soil, no food.

very easy to grow!

bright pink...vibrant purple...

this girl is out there

wanting to be seen...

she' s no shrinking violet!

tomorrow is another day...

lunch out with the girls,

good fun.

i hope you've got something fun to look forward to as well.

cheers, big ears!
