I feel them sigh with relief when they are in the out of doors

It's raining today, so instead of getting out and walking I deleted around 137 photos from my repository of pictures that badly needs cleaned up. This made me feel productive. I stopped at 137 because there is no need to go overboard on a first pass. 

Here are some photos I did not delete (yet).

These lilacs I snipped from beside the road. I always have a vase, bottle of water, and clippers in the back of my car for just this reason. Don't you?

The Japanese maple I look at when I sit on the front porch. It makes the light there sort of a soft, glowing, pink/red. In a most pleasing way. 

This bouquet of peonies I went over and clipped from Pam's garden. At her insistence of course. She lets me come every year to harvest. It's a treat. 

After I deleted the photos, I went through my email and unsubscribed from 22 sites that I never signed up for in the first place. How does this even happen? Whatever. Again, it made me feel like I had accomplished something. 

Inside plants have been repotted and moved outside. All plants like it better outside. At least mine do. I feel them sigh with relief when they are in the out of doors.
