~lol~Oh thats to funny! I always wondered if they would grow. Reminds me of a little fib my older brother convinced me of when I was little. He said if I swallowed a watermelon seed it would grow in my stomach. ~As I was eating watermelon and accidently swallowed one. Needless to say it scared the heck out of me...For months I would stand in front of a mirror each day and open my mouth real wide so I could see the vine growing. ~lol~

Caren you just put a lot of joy in my aching heart. I can just SEE how great this family get together is for ALL of you. THANK YOU SO MUCH for taking a brief moment to share your happiness. We needed that ! Hugs and continue to enjoy Lucy P.S: just in case you can not come back on....HAPPY THANKSGIVING to you and your family

laag, I didn't mean to be rude. You read too much into it. I was venting because this is my first experience with needing this type work done (my first home). I realize this is the busy season, but I just don't understand anyone not taking a couple of minutes and just calling and explaining why I shouldn't be waiting around for them to show up. It's just rude...no matter what type business. Don't accept the job or say you will show up if you have no plans. If you get busy, then pick up the cell phone and call your other appt and say you won't be able to make it and would like to reschedule. No, I don't have a 20,000 job for them, but that's no reason to be ignored. Word of mouth should mean something and I would think they would want to make potention customers happy too....even if not large dollar jobs. I'm just venting because of my experience. I wished it had been better. I'm not linking all landscape people/professionals into the same group. I'm just venting and telling what's happening to me. I know there are some good dependable ones out there and I'm still looking and will find him.

(((Kat))) this is very weird. I posted to this thread yesterday and also to Clairedo's painted door. There doesn't appear to be any postings from me showing up. weird.
