. . . excuse me . . .
. . . but this is not the kind of weather
i signed up for
as a {nearly} lifelong resident
of mesa, arizona . . .
. . . four nights in a row
of below freezing temps? . . .
. . . un.ac.cept.able . . .
{utah friends are hysterically laughing at me}
. . . annual bedding plants
{aka geraniums and alyssum}
don't really do too well
in below freezing temperature
situations . . .
. . . desperate times
call for desperate measures . . .
. . . my dad always said
to "make sure
plants are well hydrated" . . .
. . . so i watered thoroughly . . .
. . . then "cover them
during the late afternoon
in an attempt to trap
some of the heat of the day" . . .
. . . then "cover them

. . . so ~ i busted out my classiest
{read: raggedy and very colorful}
blankets and beach towels . . .
. . . you might've seen this ↓
souvenir from mexico before . . .
. . . this ↓ would constitute
a slightly less glamorous
application . . .
. . . i also dug out these
old personalized fleece throws . . .
. . . those shown here
belong to "dad"
and the mesa high jackrabbits . . .
. . . thanks to @tkroit . . .
{is it okay to mix blogging with instagram names?}
{i could not for the life of me corral that one rogue bloomhead}
. . . i'm seriously hoping
this spot on the back porch
will provide a little more shelter
for these coral beauties
than their usual spot
by the pool . . .
. . . i did reserve
one special blanket . . .
. . . it's the one i'll be cozy under
{possibly drinking hot chocolate and i don't even like hot chocolate}
while watching last night's episode
of elementary . . .
. . . have you watched
that show yet? . . .
. . . we love it . . .
{which may or may not have something to do
with the smart aleck banter between holmes and watson}
. . . stay warm! . . .
