Well I have been missing in Action. I need to start with thanking Lucy... You are a doll. I havent been here in @ least a week. I have been so busy with my new kitchen. I have been taking pictures of the process and will post them soon. Im hoping to have running water by tommorrow. It got to late to finish the plumbing today. BOO HOO. But the transfermation is amazing. Im imbassred to show how bad it got before we saved up enough to do this. BUt I LOVE IT. I got my gas stove up and running 2 days ago and it is awesome. It cooks so much faster. Anyhow I gotta run for now I hope I havent missed anything to good. Brandy

Hey Brandy,
Glad to see you back.
Nice to hear your kitchen is getting close to being finished.
Don't worry about how bad it was just enjoy the new kitchen!
Can not wait to see the pictures.

Brandy I am with Dorothy. EVERYTHING in life cost money and not much is for free. If it was, I am sure we would all have the greatest gardens....best looking houses etc etc.

But being just a normal regular person, I am too trying to fix up the house, the garden and ME slowly as you have money for it to do. If one does not like it, they do not have to come and look at it lol

Glad that you get a new kitchen. ENJOY!!!

Lucy

Yes, I did! I called around to a bunch of local plumbing supply and kitchen and bath showrooms. I just called every place that showed up on google maps. One place had one left in another location and through phone transfers I ended up getting one directly out of a Moore Supply warehouse in Dallas and it costs me less than the showroom quoted me. I've seen people on here start getting some Kohler sinks so I thought they were back in stock, but I guess not much. I did find some in California, but got lucky I didn't have to pay for that shipping. good luck!

@Barnes, I did what you suggested and think I located one! I’m holding my breath until it’s delivered to my door. A couple places said they had one but ended up being inventory error. If this doesn’t work out one place located a couple in California I can have shipped, but at a higher price. Thanks for the idea! And keep your fingers crossed for me :)

Joeywyoming, Calico Gal has a light scent. I have to put my nose right into the rose to smell it. But our air quality is bad. At this point I don't really recommend Calico Gal but I'm willing to give her another year. My strongest smelling roses include: Neil Diamond. The flowers are huge and fragrant. Much prettier now. They were a darker colored stripe first thing in the spring. Now they are a stunning red and white stripe. Also Pretty Lady Rose is strongly fragrant. Amiga Mia is more sweet in fragrance but when she flushes she perfumes the whole garden. She stopped me in my tracks again when this flush came out. However if I stick my nose in both Pretty Lady Rose and Neil Diamond are stronger. Not sure why Amiga Mia wafts in the garden so well. All pictures are from today.

I think I went about two sizes up from the container it came in. It was only about 2 or 3 months ago. The plant grew really fast. Should I repot it now? To be honest, I may have only fed it once just after repotting it the first time. Would a fertilizer high in potassium and phosphate be appropriate?
