Three, Two, One...

tighten the twine on the climbing roses so they're not so saggy*

To celebrate our recent marriage, J. and I are hosting festivities in three parts (Summer, Autumn, and Winter).  The Summer ado is less than three weeks away.  It should be a small affair, with a few out-of-state and out-of-town guests along with some local pals.

In addition to the final pieces of Spring planting, there's a lot to accomplish around the house in preparation for our little event.  I'm a list maker, which can be helpful in times like these, but I've found that to-do lists often make me feel worse than better.  I look at all that needs to be done and my stress level increases dramatically. For this reason, I've developed an alternative to the traditional to-do list.  I like making ta-da lists instead to show what I've already finished.

*In order to allow for maximum get-#@$%-taken-care-of time, I'm going to keep my posts pretty simple this month (or at least for the next three weeks) by focusing on what's done.
