PlantmastrM - The hubby does inhalers for his asthma, with the indoor plants I think its more the dirt that attracts moss and mold. Mold really seems to affect him. And of course the pollen, I've tried to bring all kinds of cut bouquets and living houseplants in and he has a flair. We dont even open our windows b/c of the outdoor triggers. I really miss the fresh air blowing through the house, I think thats why I enjoy the gardening so much. And he is extremely flexible with whatever I want to plant or do to the yard, its our compromise. :-) Beachgrub, I love the sound of the "gold dust alyssum"! I have a spot picked out for some already, but I've only seen white, of course, and purple. I will be looking that one up! I went out today and found 5 more of my pots sprouted. I worry about the weather and will be researching their hardiness. I made a big rookie mistake....I planted 100+ pots without a clear understanding of hardiness and tenders...somehow I knew it was too soon for the veggies though. One smart thing I did was not to plant all the seeds, only half or less, so it will work out, ill replant if necessary.

So clean and pristine looking... they're all beautiful....don't think much of your decapitated shake though....I know, what else could you do, you certainly couldn't pull him out! Well at least you had the courage to handle the situation yourself, I would have gone screeming for someone else to do the dirty work.... Donna

Wow Celeste!! Soooo beautiful!! All your hard work really shows. So glad to finally see some pics of your beauties this year. Your roses and gardens are always stunning. Never can get enough of them. I know the meaning of outta control!! My husband tells me that quite frequently. hahaha! I took a few years off from buying lilies when I found this forum looking at roses. Then last year I looked at the lily forum alot and went wild myself ordering new daylilies. I love allllll my new babies but have been soooo lazy this year and haven't posted any pics. Its so funny how yours are really getting started and mine are almost coming to an end. boooo hooooo!! I am going to look for some more late bloomers in hopes of extending my bloom time. I don't really see alot reblooming like lots of folks on here do but when I do I get ecstatic. My roses are starting to vamp back up though, despite the deering nibbling here and there, so now I will be focusing on them. Always something though isn't it! I have decided no more roses, unless their purple. I went wild getting lots of purple daylilies so that should feed my fix for a while! lol! So glad everything is doing great for you but I knew it would. Now, go download us some more!! See ya, Judy

Silly Me I did not see this thread when I posted Monday night LOL!! I am having to log in everytime I come here now I wonder why??? Lynn what are you having that is 0 pts?? I might want some:) How can you count 0 pts in with the 35 if they are 0??? Good for you and your DH doing this together must make it alot easier for you. I like Core best I have always eaten all of the Core foods anyway, I wanted to do Flex for awhile to get some weight off faster or so I thought~~~but I have trouble since I have done Core for almost a year now (March 1st it will be 1 year). I think I will just do Core and that will keep me from switching almost daily back and forth which is a no no! I am still having trouble getting the water down in the winter and how do you all get in your dairy??? I have about 1/4 of milk with my oatmeal unless I have berries in it then I have none~~and I try to remember to eat a thingie of string chesse for a snack at work. I did run to a shop and bought some soy yogurt and I will try that. Milk products make me ill:( What about the oil?? I never use oil except for salad dressing and I always use fat free?? How improtant is it to get all of that in your daily diet???
