Got to replace those dead azaleas.

We craigslisted a bunch of stuff and then we took the money down to the local Rhododendron Society's plant sale and bought a bunch of plants, three of which are pictured. I always feel good about supporting local charities and groups - scouts or soccer teams or gardeners or school projects or whatever. Somehow or other it's all good for everyone.

It was my grandma's birthday so we had dinner with her too. Pizza. Mom wasn't sure of the phone number, but I assured her that if you dial 310 and then any combination of 1s and 0s for the remaining four numbers, you'll get a pizza place, and they'll probably deliver. That's how it is in Vancouver.

As I was telling her this though, she fell asleep in the chair. The annual conference has been on at her work this week, so she's been leaving home at 4am and coming home around 9ish. Yesterday was the last day but she hasn't recovered yet. She's been kind of spacey and her driving got really bad for a while there, so we made her pull over and surrender the keys.

I hope she sleeps well tonight.
