Well, for starters, I'm stressing out about being on tv. I'd tell you when I'm going to be on tv, but I don't really know, exactly; the taping is next week, but the show won't air immediately. I'd tell you what I'm going to talk about on tv (the topic, surprise surprise, is homeschooling), but the truth is, what I'm thinking about most is what to wear. What to wear? WHAT TO WEAR?
What to do with my hair would be a close second.
Yes, I've already visited about umpteen billion fashion and media websites in search of inspiration, so I know not to wear white, red, or little migraine-inducing patterns, and apparently my hair shouldn't be shiny, either, which should not actually be that much of a problem, since I don't have the shiny kind of hair.
But perhaps I should be getting over myself now.
The garden has not these image problems, so let us spend some time with it instead.

Thyme not bad either

Zinnia, baby!
And in the regular old flower garden:
This purple coneflower reminds me somehow of those stuffed-toy dogs that are all nose.
Bachelor Buttons re-seeded this year.
Pansies hanging in there, thoughtful as always.
Someday I hope to be back with something thoughtful myself. Something passing as thought would be nice, but while we're waiting, the flowers are nice to look at.
