My favorite motto,"Don't do today what you can put off until tomorrow"! That's why I'm sitting here playing on the computer.LOL Well,I did take a shower and do my hair and just finished doing my nails,so I guess I DID accomplish something.LOL

Need to go find something for lunch but I have to wait until my nails are thoroughly dry.
Have a great afternoon Stacy! I know I'm going to.Can't wait to meet Nita.

Blackberry rednecked cane borer control / leaf spot
Q
Comments (5)
I had septoria leaf spot on my bosyenberries pretty bad in late summer and just a little bit on one of the marionberries. I think my watering practices contributed to the problem but have read that boysen and other trailing varieties are more susceptible than other blackberry / hybrid varieties. I sprayed them with a copper solution before they leafed out and plan to use drip irrigation this year.

Maple Tree Problems
Q
Comments (3)
I'm not cutting anything live off of them. I am just taking off the dead branches. As for the top of the sugar maple, I just took off what was dead on the top down to a point where there was a three way Y. I cut all three shoots off because they were dead. I waited until the tree had leaves before doing this to make sure it was truly a dead limb. Same with the Crimson so far I have not cut anything other than dead limbs. Since I wrote the question the Red maple that had so many seed pods is looking much better. It's just later than the other two Red's. When we planted it, it had a really huge ball which probably means more root loss than the others. The trees did not sit long at all after digging them out. The ones I got for $50, were not dug and balled like the more expensive ones because he was clearing an area and could not get his equipment back to them. I knew I was taking a chance on them, but the Red's and the Sugar's were really good looking trees and dug up properly, and other than the dead on the top of the one and the seed pods on the other they are doing fine. I have not done any pruning at all yet.

HELP !! Adult Child with a Manipulative Controlling Stepmom
Q

Briley, this post was written a while back but I hope you still read the comments. I can so relate to you. My dads wife came into the picture and acted nice as pie at first..then she slowly drove a wedge between my dad and I. Her jealousy of your relationship with him and concern for $$ after he dies I believe are her motivating factors -as are my dads wife's motivations and concerns. I truly feel that if they don't care about the adult children -they really don't care about their spouse. Caring for your spouse is being cordial and welcoming at the very least to your husbands children-no matter what age. My dads wife has wrapped such a web around him-he cannot even see what she's done to us and our father daughter bond. ): and the grandchildren. My advice to you is to make plans often (3x) week to see your dad outside the house without her-quick coffee, dinner, breakfast, a walk on his lunch break -keep your bond strong before he retires. Once retired, the talons get even stronger. I am so very sorry and I can relate more then you even know. It's really really important to not let her keep you from having one on one time with your dad. My dads wife would call and talk to my dad for 20 mins when I was out having a special lunch with him. She would tell me as they left my house"they were going home to have some fun". It makes me want to throw up. She would exhibit naked statues around the house when we came to visit with young children saying it was art. She's highly jealous and suspicious if I am talking alone with my dad like I am the other woman. Some people are really mental. I wish every day that my dad had never married her and ruined our family.

How do I handle relationship with rude 13 year old stepdaughter?
Q
Comments (8)
Maybe she needs to see you as a real person, not just something that is occupying her father's attention. When my husband and I married I moved into their home, my husband's and the children's. It was the house that him and his ex-wife lived in and it was the only home that the children have ever known (not pleasant for me (ugggh!!) but at least the kids didn't have another change to cope with in addition to our marriage, which was already a significant change). My oldest stepdaugther had assumed the role of being the "woman" of the house and I could tell that in some instances she felt that I was stepping on her toes. I didn't want to give her too much power given that she was 12 years old at the time but I wanted her to know that her opinion mattered and that I was listening. When we decided to decorate the home the girls and I went shopping together and I showed them what I was looking for. It may not have been exactly how she wanted to decorate but both girls helped pick out decor and we were all happy with the outcome. I have used this as a guide with everything, from decorating to rule making to discipline. I always ask their advice, their opinion. They are free to express how they are feeling on all topics and often change my mind (which happens often!!!), however, my husband and I make the final decision. And even when its not in their favor they know that I fully understood and respect their point of view and they do the same for me. I personally feel that I have exceptional stepchildren (okay, so I'm a bit biased!!) but I think that all children would like to know that they are important and that their thoughts and wishes are taken into consideration. Have you gone shopping with your stepdaughter? Most girls LOVE shopping and that would be a huge icebreaker. Do things with her that interest her, get to really know her, her likes and dislikes, her fears, etc. My stepdaugthers sometimes do things that I don't like or they may hurt my feelings unintentionally but I've gotten to the point where I can go and plop on their bed and say "hey, I'm feeling...".

Hey, we all need one of those 'R & R' days now and then. I took one yesterday. Which means today, I had to get up and get myself moving to make up for lost time--LOL. Started early and got the car packed up. On the way to the country house, I stopped in at our lawyer's office to leave him some paperwork he needed (he's handling a family mess for us), then I got here, unpacked the car, planted a shrub I'd brought down, chatted with the next door neighbor, put in some vegetables I'd started from seed, watered, got rid of a few more bore bees. Taking a short break, and will be getting back to work on the quilt I'm tying. Might head out to see what farm markets have opened up for the season at some point. And if I don't put gas in the car, I may not be going home after the holiday weekend--LOL!

So hey, kick back and enjoy your day--just spare a thought for those of us who have used up our quota of days off for the week!

Me thinks, you like procrastinating. ;)

Get off your tush, and do something, before your parents get there and your regret it!
