*Brushing away the blog cobwebs.....*
I've found that getting adjusted to a new travel schedule, setting up and moving to POE, and a seemingly heavier work schedule took some, well, adjusting. More adjusting than I thought but after a few weeks the schedule has been smoothing out and the psychic adjustments that DH and I have had to make are also smoothing out. We are continuing to make changes and find more time together, quality time. Maybe more than before, which is nice. We didn't know we were missing that. Anyway, I thought I would check out the blog and show you a few things that are interesting at Purling Oaks Central this weekend.
Lamb's ear has spread around my garden. I've been harsher with it this year to contain it but I still love it for the texture and color of the leaves and the pretty lavender flowers.
Lime thyme is flowering....along with all the other thymes. This one does have a citrus aroma, leaning toward lime, but I think the color of the leaves may have as much to do with the name of "lime" as the fragrance.
The black raspberries are just beginning to ripen. Fortunately for berry production, we've been getting rain. As I type this it is raining---of course, I am also wondering what the rain will do to my flight schedule today. No big worries though. I'm reading Nora Roberts' Kindred in Death in paperback and have a book or two available on the iPad.
Yes, iPad. I gave in to my inner geek and bought one with 32 gig - wifi only. I really like it and found that I don't miss having the 3GS service. My back up plan, should I need constant wireless access, is to buy one of the wireless access points I can carry in my purse or pocket so it can be used for multiple devices. I'm not at that point yet. I like that the screen is large enough to actually *see* something and I can stream Netflix over the wireless at the apartment.

Have a great Sunday and a very good week!
