I think you meant to give me these words yesterday. And hey..............I have a tip for everyone. I am slowly getting rid of the dandelions in my yard. I won't use chemicals because of the birds and other creatures, so after using dandelion pluckers for the past two years, picking the flowers every morning when they bloom and mowing them when I can, I came up with a real winner. You know when the flowers go to seed and all of those little fluffy umbrella like seeds go flying in the wind? Well, for the longest time I've been diligently going out in the morning with a paper sack collecting them before they fly off by grabbing them with my fist and plunging the bunch of them into a paper sack before they can escape. That is until I got the brilliant idea of taking my Dust Buster out and vacuuming them up. I go from seed flower to seed flower and zap them into the dust buster. They come off of the stalk easily and when the dust buster gets full I take it over and empty it into the garbage can.

Works like a charm!

Good trio of words today, Naomi. Employing creativity can sometimes bring forth clarity and rejoicing, I think.
