My humble place of employ, and roses
The aftermath of Mother's Day in a floral shop is a tired and tedious affair. Mostly you spend the day cleaning up, removing abused and dying flowers from the public eye, and opening and cutting the boxes and boxes of stock that arrived to replenish the depleted numbers. I did a lot of cutting this afternoon, and a lot of replenishing. The 2nd, 3rd and 4th pictures above are of the Safeway Floral Department. It's a nice space, though cramped at times, and I'm really getting to like it.
The top picture is of one of the roses I brought home for Gramma. She really likes them.
Three days of work-less bliss begin tomorrow, though I'll be driving Gramma to the airport tomorrow morning as she leaves for Toronto at 10:30 am. It will be strange living alone in this house, in a city I don't know very well. I think I'll catch up on my reading.
