I'm with your DH on this one. I can't stand the smell of brugs in an enclosed space. I don't even like allowing them to bloom in the garage. I swear the scent still gets into the house. The only way I'll let a brug bloom inside is if it's one I haven't seen and is very close to opening or a variety that I'm just dying to cross pollinate, otherwise I chop all the buds/blooms off and let them go dormant.

Ahhhhhh :)! I am putting my feet up for a moment now! Visited Carol in Joshua this morning and enjoyed the visit SO much. Carol's gardens are so welcoming and pretty, she has put a ton of work into it. Thank you, Carol for all of the wonderful plants. It looks like everything made it home fine. Even the 4 foot tall Indigo Spires, lol! I have a perfect spot in mind for it at the project site. It will be beautiful. After seeing your gardens, my want list has increased considerably....but not for the project, LOL I mean for me :). Your place makes me impatient for some shade at my place. I love the high, high canopy of your trees. Anyhow, one of my projects for tomorrow is to organize all of the potted up stuff I have here for the project in order of height :). Then I'm going to take a pic and post it. You guys will not believe your own generosity! I feel like I have a mini-nursery :). I am so looking forward to getting it all in the ground. I have used potting soil with fert in it so everything is looking really nice and I have every pot mulched for that little bit of protection. They all get a good drink every morning and seem to be happy. I know the master gardeners are not going to believe their eyes when I deliver all of these plants :). I know I've said it before, but thank you again everyone for your incredible generosity and caring. This garden can't help but be a huge success. Kristi

Let's keep this one on the front page. I hope more people save money/pay into a good cause at the same time ;) Getting my moldings from there and going back to check on some doors. I did not see wallpaper at ours, but may have missed it. The tiles they had were mostly very large lots. I bet it varies each time you go. Mine may have small bunches next time and yours may have a ton, lol. It is definitely hit or miss. I was just so grateful to hit on my window! I also sent the contractor/flipper there and told him to buy all the pale green subway tile because if he does not use it for his investment house, I will save it for our family bath that gets renovated in a few years when our budget allows. I have my master bath all planned and bought and much of our kitchen stuff, but the next projects await and for pennies on the dollar, this may get us there sooner!

wow wow wow!!! that's a tremendous bargain! good for you. that would make my week!
