Countrygrl - I typed your name wrong in first post...that is someone else, I think. How are you doing and how is the college kid doing? Are you just lurking these days? Miss your posts. Jeanne S.

Here's a flower for you to enjoy today...the "lotus bloom" from my pond...second yr. I've had this plant...lasts just a few days, but beautiful!

    Hi Jeanne! Thank you for my flower, it's beautiful! Yes, I lurk for a few minutes every morning, just to keep up with what everyone is doing. I haven't made anything in a lonnngg time, except for this old shutter that I painted, and have yet to hang on my porch! I've been doing a major overhaul on all the gardens, trying to downsize, so I'm not a slave to it anymore, because I've developed a bum hip. And it seems that whenever anyone has gone on vacation this summer, they ask ME to take care of their gardens! Well, our daughter goes back to school in 3 weeks, and I'll miss her terribly, even though all I saw of her this summer was her back, as she went out the door to see her boyfriend. She's in loooovvvve!! Oy!! I'm looking forward to Fall, because I really miss playing with junk, and I can start participating here again. Looks like there's a ton of talented newbies on here! Well, hello to everyone, and have a great weekend!

    Susie, I always enjoy your posts! You are so supportive of everyone! How are things going up there in Northern IL? We FINALLY got some rain just now, and it looks like another wave will be coming through. We really need it! Thanks for the advice about our college girl. I guess all that really matters is that she does well in school. Who knows, maybe it won't be as hard this second time around!
