I got my second on Thursday and within a few hours had a bad headache and sniffles. By evening, I felt pretty rotten then had a fever, chills, and muscle aches overnight. Was better later the next day, but the arm pain persists. All worth it though. Those blooms are gorgeous... thanks for sharing!JoAnnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13691864361197071517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4083328248557950617.post-76919949973403982692021-04-11T16:12:35.946-07:002021-04-11T16:12:35.946-07:00Adorable family shot of your daughter's troops...Adorable family shot of your daughter's troops. So cute too Fred & George batting around the eggs. I hope you feel better soon and that it might just be from the shot? Perhaps it'll disappear soon. The flowers in your neighborhood sure look great now. take it easy. thecuecardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08870323589682197091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4083328248557950617.post-19135185748958281032021-04-11T14:14:57.427-07:002021-04-11T14:14:57.427-07:00I love all the blossoms you discovered.

We are slow to bloom here along the Gulf Coast of Texas after the big freeze, but what is coming back is richer than ever before.<br /><br />I do love poetry. I should buy Hill We Climb. I should support poetry I love with a little bit of cash. And who doesn't love Billy Collins? I remember my son giving me the Collins' poem, The Lanyard, one Mother's Day on a card. <br /><br />We have similarly brazen squirrels. One is sitting in my bird feeder right now, looking at me, daring me to drive her off. I just can't do it.<br /><br />Love the photo of your daughter's family. <br /><br />Here's my response to your challenge: Anything Billy Collins. Or Louis Jenkins. ("The Speaker" or "Lucky") Or Ron Padgett ("How to Be Perfect").

They do tend to be bold, but that's never happened to us (our deck is up on the second floor, so mostly just squirrels from the nearby trees).<br /><br />I am always impressed by your ability to enjoy poetry - I struggle with most of it. One April, I got huge compendiums out of the library, and I did enjoy some of Whitman's and Frost's poems, especially those about nature. My favorite was Celebrations by Maya Angelou, and I did love hearing The Hill We Climb on inauguration day. I should try Mary Oliver - I keep hearing friends' rave reviews of her poetry.<br /><br />There's a Hank Green sequel out? How did I miss that? Thanks for the heads up! I enjoyed his first novel.<br /><br />Sorry you aren't feeling well - hope this next week is better for you. <br /><br />And what gorgeous photos of spring blooms!! I wish I knew how people make those photo collages ...<br /><br />Enjoy your books and your spring weather this week, Anne - <br /><br />Sue<br /><br /><a href="http://bookbybook.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Book By Book</a>Sue Jacksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14532098225905355332noreply@blogger.com
