I’ve always wondered. You really need a side view to show his mane in its full glory - a pic I don’t have. And another one. He doesn’t weigh nearly this much now. http://cindy.blogsome.com/2009/08/09/well-does-he/ I had a wild dream last night in which I gave birth to twins, the first one born breach.

This is the second time that the lab botched my sample. I’m having a series of tests to find out why my IgM values are low. Yesterday the doctor called me to tell me that the blood lab in Utah ... http://cindy.blogsome.com/2009/03/31/blood-lab-pulls-out-the-big-guns/ I saw my pulmonologist a few days ago.

I didn’t garden this year at all except for the attempt to grow kale and broccoli. The rabbits are free range again and I don’t plan to garden while they’re still alive. They are past their life expectancy ... http://cindy.blogsome.com/2008/12/31/2008/ I came across the Egypt project report Garrison wrote in 6th grade on mummification. Its so cute I had to share!

But the wisteria pics are really an excuse to try out a new technique I learned for rounding image corners. Here’s our ridiculous ground cover, winter wheat and hairy vetch.
