Happiness is being non-profit

primsongI've been hard-put to keep up with everyone this week - had to choose between that and writing and decided it's been too long since I took time to just write. (the new tale, Stone of Erebor, is now underway)
Happiness abounded recently when we finally got the papers from the IRS that make One Small Garden an official non-profit. Now we can pursue donations to replace the benches, get the deck properly stained and sealed, etc. and set up the organization to help other potential charity gardens. My kudos go to the three ladies who put so much time into getting that paperwork through! They are with me here - along with a special visitor who came back to see how it was growing and to lend his support.
On another note, I bought a catnip plant to put in my own garden, for Pi. It was left on the kitchen counter when we went to bed, ready to put in the ground in the morning. In the middle of the night, what do we hear? *bonk bonk thump whack*... Pi found it. She was lolling on a branch of catnip, rolling around on the countertop, surrounded by all the things she had knocked over and totally buzzed. It went up on top of the fridge, she went outside. Somehow I don't think it will last long out there, lol...
