You know I got something better than a swimming pool

Rabbit, rabbit! Happy May Day! I slept an hour and went to another doctor's appointment!

I recognize it says nothing for my botanical competence that I didn't realize we had a lilac in our back yard until it started to bud, but since I had been desperately missing the lilac that used to grow in a second-story tree past the back deck of our previous apartment, I am extremely glad to see this one.

So glad you have one.

I love them. I associate them with the arboretum and my grandmother. This one already smells headily sweet. And most of our back yard is kind of a wasteland, so it is especially nice to have something so important growing in it.

A wasteland should definitely have lilacs.

It does say so in the second line, good point.
