(In Canada it is the second Monday in October)) Then Halloween. Then Remembrance Day. After November 11 merchants can start to push celebration of the Solstice Season, but not before. Grrrr.

Still tripping over the dumb Phormium. I can't move it into the living room until someone (I will name no names) paints the window trim. Hint: not me.

Deciding which plants to keep and which to leave behind was a tough decision for me. Planning ahead and putting things in containers would have been smart. Why didn't I do that?<br /><br />CBChristine B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08335289758548637661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3462867846580440325.post-68759066713299717762014-09-18T19:24:58.567-07:002014-09-18T19:24:58.567-07:00Stores that do this kind of thing really annoy me....Stores that do this kind of thing really annoy me. Why they feel the need to compete with the likes of Hobby Lobby and Michael's makes no sense. A shopper expects holiday crap at those stores but Costco? Come on people! But nobody asked me. Thankfully I am pretty good at ignoring stuff I don't need or want in my life.<br /><br />At this time of the year, I really, really feel the need to live in the moment and inhale every last drop of summer before it's gone and I'm starving for sunshine and warmth. I think you should tell your hubby you want a heated greenhouse for Christmas so your peeps don't trip over the phormium.

We get a bit too much winter for my taste.<br /><br />CB <br /><br />@Missy,<br />I have only experienced one Christmas without snow. It was in Florida and it was divine. A little jarring and strange to see all the tinsel on palm trees, but absolutely divine.<br /><br />CBChristine B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08335289758548637661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3462867846580440325.post-71254011293082615432014-09-16T16:17:44.312-07:002014-09-16T16:17:44.312-07:00Here in Australia we are heading towards Summer wi...Here in Australia we are heading towards Summer with Christmas being in the hottest part of the year.

It's much worse for you in Alaska, and I really shouldn't complain so much as my garden succumbs. On the other hand, I would hate to live in a state without seasons. Gardening all year round must be very tiring. P. xPam's English Gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01359787694149174369noreply@blogger.com
