If this is Saturday, it must be laundry day. <grin> Cloudy, warm and humid weather settled in today. The rain ended overnight after over 24 hours of precipitation. The iris has three blooms today -- only one and a bit last night. The weight of the blooms bent the stalk so one bloom was lying in the grass. I found a bit of binder twine and made a loop to hold the stalk upright anchoring it to a spindle on the porch stairs. Three blooms at once is precedent setting for this plant. So wonderful to see these large blooms together. I swept the porches and sidewalks around the house. White flowers from a tree in the area blew in with the winds yesterday. It is pretty to have a petal covered walkway but once they turn brown it isn't as delightful.
It was great to mix in some non-routine activity on a day usually filled with mundane sameness. A song about the day of the week seemed apropos. The sound is gentle and relaxing, while the lyrics note a need to feel free. Keep safe. Enjoy!
