Thanks Betty. I called a friend who is an architechtural landscaper and asked him to come give me an estimate on designing a xeriscape for my back yard. He hasn't called back yet but I hope he does soon.
We're to get another inch of rain today. I sure hope it happens. Even though we got some nice rain last week it certainly wasn't enough to end out awful drought.
Kathy, it's so strange that you are sooo dry and my sister in Carlinville is drowning this year. It's a looooong state.
Tink ran out in the mud this morning (from my watering and filling the bird baths) and made an awful mess on my carpet. Into the sink with her and a quick bath. She is sooooo mad.

Too bad Tinkerbrat!
