12 of 12 - March 2007
Once again, welcome to 12 of 12 day!
7:45 a.m. Not only did I wake up in the dark, but it was a bad hair day. New hair products plus Lynda equals crunchy yet stringy hair.
4:31 p.m. Not to sound like a broken record, but it was really busy at work today. So busy that I stayed half an hour later than I was supposed to be there. And I didn't get any pictures during the day.
5:28 p.m. I made some Rice Krispies squares to mail to my brother. He's still recovering from his broken leg. Of course, I had to sample some squares to make sure they were good enough to send before I wrapped them all up.
5:40 p.m. Squeezed in a little practice time for choir. We're learning this (apparently) famous song called Chili Con Carne, and it's quite challenging. I can't get my ears around it at all.
7:23 p.m. Went out with Michelle for a post-supper walk. Our first stop was this historical landmark.
7:38 p.m. Don't you think this building is lovely? I would like to live there. Maybe they have better soundproofing between units than my place.
7:43 p.m. We started to hustle back to Michelle's place because it was getting dark. The sidewalks were a little iffy, and she fell on some ice right here. Ow.
7:58 p.m. Then we decided to cut through this sketchy piece of land. You can't really tell, but there's a huge mass of melted snow in the middle of a field heading towards an abandoned train station.
7:59 p.m. We had to abandon our attempt once we discovered that the snow was mushy and up to our ankles. And the water was deep.
8:02 p.m. There was no playground equipment nearby, so Michelle made me get into this shopping cart. She made me do it.
9:21 p.m. Groceries! The checkout line-up was so very long. I was afraid we would miss our tv!
10:31 p.m. Back to my place for some Jack Bauer time and some kettle corn. Mmm.
10:35 p.m. Bonus pic: This is my mostly green plant. It seems to be terribly ill, and I don't know what I did to it. All the new growth is dying. First my "lucky" bamboo dies, and now this. Any suggestions?

Hey!
Maybe your plant is getting to much sun or needs some fertilizer?!
miss you!
Happy early st. pats day!

Great pics.
The plant looks like mine. Try putting some used coffee grounds around it. That seems to work on a lot of them.
Are you in a jazz choir? Even then, that song can be pretty tricky to sync up!
Great 12 of 12. I especially liked the shopping cart LOL
Great pics! I must be an old man because when I saw the shopping cart pic I didn't think, "How fun!" I thought, "Uh oh, she better be careful or she might get hurt. And where did that cart come from? Thugs stealing carts... THAT's why groceries cost so much..."

Poor Brother! Hope he's back on his feet soon.
And yup - quality control is VERY important! ;-)

That plant may be a cousin of mine. I really need to give up on the plant life....
Great pics!
fiona - I miss you too! We will have to get together next time I'm home! My working hypothesis re: my plant is that it wasn't getting enought light, so I moved it by the window. So at least if it's dying, it gets to see the sunshine.
beth - Coffee grounds, eh? I'll look into it!
bu - Not a jazz choir. We just sing whatever the director throws at us. Usually it's in Swedish.
Joy and condoblogger - The cart was just sitting there. It's quite far from the Zellers store from which it originated, so we're not sure how it got there. And I was a little wary about hopping into the cart, but, as I said, my friend made me do it. She even held the cart steady.
dogeared - Yes, I do pride myself on my QC. The squares were yummy.
claudine - perhaps we should consider genetic counseling for our plants ;)
Sun, water and fertilizer pellets for the plant. And music - seriously. I'm horrible with plants but since I've been playing them music, they've done great! Haha!
I want a shopping cart - and it's RED! Awesome!
