Super! Thanks so much! One more question, I swear. I pulled plants previously and they look rather sad since we get such cold weather here early. Should I pick large plants or divisions for the swap? I don't want to be the only one who brings "wimpy looking" or sad plants, ha-ha! Also, pots, my amount of pots are sparse. I have pots but I don't want to get rid of them all for the swap. Can we bring plants in coffee can containers or I also use old 2 littler bottles cut down, with holes in the bottom to promote drainage as a way to recycle what we use in our home. Course, again, I don't want to seem "cheap." Thanks so much and sorry I seemed frantic before, I was just hmm, frantic. I also bake so I'm planning on bringing chocolate no bake cookies that are more like fudge, and new miracle grow feeder bottles with the garden hose attachment and some other goodie bags I made up. I was going to give them at Christmas to encourage family members to start a garden and decided against that because it will be snowing around that time. Thanks and I can't wait to be there!!! Katina Plants I have to bring are: Stonecrop Sedum: Autumn Joy Daisy: 1 Hybrid variety, Orange/Brown, Red & Yellow they change colors Hosta: Lg (Wu) variety Hosta: Lime Green variety Hosta: Green Variety Hosta: Dark green and white stripped Dianthus Red Hot Poker Liatris: Purple, Gay Feather Succulent Ground Cover (For containers only) invasive Celome Seeds: Invasive (but pretty!) Apple Mint Chocolate Mint Garlic Chive Butterfly Weed Orange Swamp Milkweed: Pink Some other Ohio Native Plants Some rare plants. House Plants

Hey guys! Well, another gray day on the island, but Peg's post has got me thinking that I'll take a break and get some fresh air on the roof. Glad you are getting out of the hole the contractor dug for you! We had the contractor underprice our house by so much that we have been struggling to hang onto it. At the end of this month, we will know whether we can keep it or put it on the market... The office is kind of closed today since I'm the only one here, so wore trainers (tennies?...sneakers?...whatever everyone calls them...) to work, a tee shirt, and a hoodie. It's pretty amazing how clothes determine the amount of movement I do. I am all energized to file, clean the office and get things in order! ---Uh, wait, since DH is gone today, it MIGHT be THAT too! lol. Besh....((((((((((HUGS))))))))))))) Wodka - HUGS! Hope you are getting your walks in. Maddie: Keep on truckin', girl. I am planning a trip to another island. Getting away - even to another island - is a break from routine and work. And an excuse to explore and WALK! We're coming up on the weekend - WHAT ARE YOU DOING THIS WEEKEND?

Good afternoon, almost evening! It was a little cool and windy here today, with rain early this morning. Everything is glistening and green. So pretty. I had my first official workout today. I managed to do all the machines twice and lightly jogged in place after every 2 machines. I have to admit that I had to pop some tylenol and take a nap late this afternoon because I did feel the burn and was achy and tired. But, it was fun, and I'll definitely return tomorrow for a light workout. Hubby has a sleep study tonight way over in Houston, so I'll be on my own here tonight. I haven't spent many nights here alone, and it's been since Thanksgiving so I'm a little nervous. These lovely woods start feeling very dark and lonely when it's just Lucky pup and me. QOD: I think I'd like to return as Sweetpea because that little one leads a beautiful life on Suzanne's farm! Jen, so glad to see you posting and that y'all were safe even though you were frightened. BJ, reading about your windows getting washed made me look hard at mine, and I know that I'll be getting around to them sometime very soon. I hadn't realized how rain-spotted they'd gotten until I really looked. McPeg, that washstand has such good bare bones. Can't wait to see the finished product! I'm happy for you to be getting new furniture! This weekend, we're getting a new propane tank for our grill, and I'm thawing out chicken and steaks to rub down and grill for next week's meals. There's just nothing better than grilled meat - and I love the smell of it cooking on the grill. Hope everyone has a restful weekend!

This is one of my favorite things here on the Table ! I love all of the pictures posted so far today ! They put a *Smile* on my face this morning !
