Yesterday, Mom and I met Harmony in Lewiston and ordered the rest of the bridesmaids dresses. Check. We went to St. Vincent's Thrift (not my favorite) and then to The Hangar (always my favorite). I found two little owl salt and pepper shakers that I contemplated giving to Karen, but love too much to give away (sorry Karen! :)). On our way to lunch the hail storm hit and we ran for cover into an antique shop downtown which turned out to be a great find...two floors of booths!


Today I started my new job at Crossroads Nursery. Second only to scrapbooking, I love gardening and am so excited to be working with, and learning more about, plants. Though it was cold, my first day was great. I learned the ropes, moved some plants and tried to retain all of the information thrown my way. Not easy with the loads of common and scientific names, register procedures, closing duties, watering schedules, etc. Starting a new job is never easy, and it will probably get super hot and miserable, but I look forward to the summer ahead.

Congrats on your new job. That would be a fun place to work. Ryan and I are going to plant a raised box veggie garden this summer so we may come in and see you!

I love your owls! They are fun!
