Maybe it's because I'm on the recovery side of the bug which made me miss most of Conglomeration, but every time I saw "plot" I was thinking of my cemetery plot, in my Mother's home town.

Her father was on the board of directors, so the family has a pretty nice location, on a hill overlooking a wooded valley and some farmland. I just hope it'll be a long time before there are any more residents in our section. :-)

Anyway, I think part of the reason I got sick late Friday is that Wednesday afternoon I worked hard to get my flower bed ready, partly to beat a storm and partly because I had other things to do the next day. I dug and spread dirt then planted seeds... and was so tired as things progressed I didn't completely weed. Oh, well; the stuff I planted will hopefully be taller than the weeds. (One of the things I planted was a packet of "Bee Mix.")

Then, Thursday, after lunch with friends and some grocery shopping I baked cookies and bread for the con.

No wonder I dismissed my tiredness Friday as a combination of all that work plus allergies.

In re. the SS overpayment, the worst part of bureaucratic mistakes is that it's usually us who wind up paying for them! :-) Hopefully, they'll be reasonable.

Finally, good luck with your garden!
