RABBIT FUR

Every night I get the rabbit out of his cage and he sits in my lap. We visit and I give him a good backrub . He clicks his teeth and is so happy. Tonight he seemed to be shedding a lot so I decided to brush him. And I did, at which time fur took flight. The more I tried to get it in the trash can the more it flew through the air. It was up my nose, all over the chair, floating through the air, stuck on the table and love seat, stuck to my hands and arms, covering my clothes. I have a hand held vacuum, the more I vacuumed the more it spread. I found a lint roller and captured some of it, then got it all over myself again when I had to tear off the sticky part of the lint roller. I did that several times. I put the rabbit back in the cage where he shook and scratched, releasing all the fur that I had dislodged with the brush. It is still furry here and there. The next brushing will take place outside!

DIGGING IN THE DIRT

I've been digging in the dirt. I've planted more petunias than anything else, pink, purple, white, yellow, more pink. The rabbit loves them so he should haveey petunias all summer. They are easy to keep blooming and always look pretty.
I love herbs. Most of the old ones came up and are growing. Today I planted two varieties of sweet basil. Nothing smells so wonderful as basil.
Digging in the dirt is my therapy. Dirt doesn't tall back, well, not exactly. Most things I plant tend to grow. They do like water, lots of water.
I don't like weeds. They like me though.
