Post #6653451

Yesterday, wasn't suppose to be cold and rainy; I wanted to spend the day in the garden. There are a few bigger plant moves I need to make and the husband was going to help me. He's good about that kind of stuff. It was our anniversary and we had hoped to spend a sunny, warm day outside.

At one point during the day, when we were talking about the garden I mentioned that I needed some clematis for certain spots, and also mentioned how many I had. The husband was stunned and didn't believe me. He thinks I'm a little obsessed, which I'm not, but I understand why it might seem that way sometimes. Oddly enough, it had stopped raining, and he insisted we go outside so I could count them for him. He was almost speechless that I had inconspicuously fit so many into the garden, and there was still room for more. Almost immediately after the count, it started raining again. Those few rainless minutes outside counting clematis, and his realization that I have a long way to go until there were visually "too many", made up for not being in the garden all day.
