Snapdragons


I am a
Snapdragon


What Flower
Are You?




"Mischief is your middle name, but your first is friend. You are quite the prankster that loves to make other people laugh."

I always thought I was a flower! Somehow being a snapdragon seems really appropriate lately! I have felt a bit snappy lately. I wouldn't go so far as to call myself a dragon, but don't ask my husband what he thinks!

I actually like snapdragons. I saw some today and pointed out how pretty they looked. I've already been thinking of my gardens for this year. It's still too early to plant any. There's always one last frost before Easter. I still should start getting my flower beds ready though. The ones in the front yard need to be cleared of dead leaves. The one in the back yard needs to be doggy-proofed. Jake thinks it's his job to water the tree in the middle of that flower bed which makes for some unhappy plants. I've tried yelling at him, but he just looks at me like, "What's with her?" That'll make you want to snap.

Wicked!

Wicked banner

Olen and I have been wanting to go to a play. I love going to the theater. My brother, Matt, was over last night along with another friend of ours. We all decided that we should go together. We looked up and saw that the play "Wicked" was coming to Houston. Now, Matt is going to be out of town for around three weeks so that limited which day we could go. The date we chose was a month away. I pulled up the site to see how much it would cost us. I discovered that the whole show was sold out...already. It's a month away!! I checked other dates. Same thing. So, being the resourceful person that I am. I thought, well, I'll just get on ebay and see if there's some tickets available. They started at $400. I'm starting to understand why they would call a theater production "wicked." $400 could be a car payment!
