Camp mail (could use more)


I started flipping though old posts on the blog for ideas and this was fun to do again. I wonder if she will even realize that the scribbles are the letters in her name.


This style came from an envelope from Janet. I know I've seen it somewhere - maybe Pinterest - my version is pretty rough.

What does (could use more) in the title - mean?

That note to self yesterday and today - was supposed to alert me to add on something interesting - and I've been forgetting to do a final edit on the blog posts. 

Sadly - I have turned into Leiningen vs the Weeds. That is my version of Leiningen vs the Ants - a story from when I was a kid. I need to revisit it to see why it has stuck with me all these years. I do not recall anything specific - except a guy and a hoard of ants. Apparently my brain was imprinted with information about doing battle with things.... and some battles are futile. Although I have no idea if he lost his battle.

At what point do you figure out that you can't win.

But, do we stop. No - we keep going. 

Current battle - a patch of those nasty day lilies that are technically an invasive weed. Then Virginia Creeper AND Creeping Charlie invaded from the neighbors - and I am not sure what direction this battle is going to go. Part of me is thinking about black plastic and bricks. I'm pretty sure that plastic wins.

To be continued.
