Clematis


I like the blue color of clematis, like the picture on the package, so I bought the seedling two years ago.

It didn't bloom last year.

鐵線蓮屬

Last week, I was excited when it started having buds.
The flowers are blooming, but the flowers are different than the picture on the package.
Ah, the tag said it is clematis 'Belle of Woking' blue, but the flowers are white. Oh well.

Flowering weeds


風在等 
耐心的等着 
年幼艷黄的蒲公英
已展現她可愛的一面
Wind is waiting 
Patiently
Dandelion is cute while young


再長大長高後
竟神奇般的從黄小鴨轉成白天鵝
She is growing up
From a little yellow ducky she is transformed to a beautiful white swan
Kind of a miracle


亭亭玉立
風開始瘋狂的追求
Wind is crazy dating the beauty


帶着她的種子
隨着風
到處享受戀愛
She is just following Wind with her seeds
Enjoying the dates and love


最終 
落地生根
Eventually grounded


我的童年没遇上蒲公英,没關係。現在我也可以拔一朵,向天空,吹一吹,回到小孩般的純歡樂。
I didn't see dandelions in my childhood but that's all right. I can pick one up now. Blowing it into the sky, like a little child having pure fun. 


屋子草地到處可見小小的野花
Our yard has a lot of flowering weeds


在相公未割草前


為它們拍拍照吧
Take the pictures now, before Steve mows.

Re-take driving exam


Steve needed information of my driving license to file the state income tax, and found that my driving license is expired (I didn't receive the reminder). Steve checked online, and it couldn't be renewed if it was expired more than 6 months or 184 days. 
Mine is expired 185 days!
Oh noooooo!

I need to have a driving test again!
Ahhhhhhh!


Today, I went to take the driving exam. The written test has 25 questions, and if 6 or more wrong answers, you fail. The test can be taken twice per day. I got 6 wrong and failed the first time.  Luckily, I passed the second time. Then we waited another hour until my turn for the driving test. I felt relieved when the examiner said I passed.  After that, we went to the DMV and waited another 30-45 minutes to get my new license.  From arriving at the testing office until I had my new license took about 4 hours.

I have my driving license again. 
Yeahhhhhhh!
