My sympathies. I know pretty much how you feel. Someone has stolen the lovely odd orange-flame tulips from my yard just before they bloom the past two years. I'm thinking of digging up the bulbs and moving them closer to the house so I can protect them.

I went for a walk today too - needed beans for chili and figured that if I drove there and back, I'd probably spend more on gas than on the beans (which is kind of a weird combination of ideas if you stop and think about it and it's better not to). It's raining down here, what I think of as an Irish rain - cool but not cold, gentle and misting. Which is why I took the walk. The local continuing adult education program is offering a class in Irish ceilidh dancing and I really want to take it. I'm just worried about whether I have the stamina for it. Walking, otoh, I can do.
