tiny flower thursday
From my sun gold tomato plant. And now, a few words about what happened to me on Wednesday. So I worked a half day at work, because I’m working another half day on Saturday. After I got home I picked up my iPhone to check email. And there it was. A message from a deputy…

fake summer on a cold winter day
