I've had enough of Cloris!

Really like Brooke.

Hope that Rocco can hang in there another week or two to see what he's capable of....

I like Rocco. Don't see why they are so down on him. He's fun. Hope he stays awhile too.

Hi Beverly, To answer your Q?, I did go to Darby Creek Nursery,me and my friends went there after the swap. But they didn't have a good sale like they did last fall.We left there almost empty handed.But we had stopped at Shroders off of 71 on our way to the swap and before we got to the swap. They have some really good sales on their plants.That's where we bought most of our plants that day. On our way home we stopped at Seely's. I ended up buying 4 Hostas and Jacquie and her sister Bobbi bought 4 or 5. And we were loaded for bear.LOL I was in so much pain I couldn't hardly stand it. But It was fun.I couldn't unload my car and lucky for me I have some very able friends who don't mind helping or doing for me.Oh!! If I only Had My Legs Back!!! What's this Beverly about you having a Hosta Sale on the 30th? Did you sell them for a business or are they your own??Diane had emailed me with the info and date, But I didn't get the message till after the day of your sale. Sorry I missed it. Hope you did a good business!!! Hope you and Betty had fun at the swap.Fill us in on the Goodies you brought home!! Keep in touch!!

Are you quilting this weekend? June 29-30
Q
Comments (12)
Got home from TN RV trip late Sunday, was a 13 hour drive home, got lots of crocheted/ribbon bookmarks made that day, a good trip though. Yard guy came and cut grass earlier this week and he weed-whacked one of my daylilies, but thankfully it had already finished blooming for the year, oh well it will come back from the tubers next year. I cut grass and weeds inside my large back yard flowerbed this week. I collected cosmos seeds, took some flower pics, then bent to collect some canna seeds and darned if the cosmos seeds didn't fall out of the small cup I had them in in my pocket, so now I have cosmos seeds scattered in amongst some of my daylilies and as wet as it has been this summer who knows maybe they will grow and bloom by this fall. Thursday started hand-quilting Christy's grandbaby quilt and have gotten about 17 hours done on that in the past 3 days, plan to take it on our AR RV trip. I did not work on crocheted lace yet on last trip, I decided to wait until after I have it fully hand-quilted and binding sewed on so I will know my exact measurements for making the lace so hopefully can do it in 2 to 4 segments and then connect them all when done, I was hoping I would have her quilt done by beginning of August, but at the way things are progressing and with RV trips looks like it may be September before I finish her quilt. Hubby got a new RV temperpedic type mattress yesterday, so hoping we sleep much better on future RV trips. Once this new mattress airs out next week, I gotta start packing and loading for our AR RV trip. Hubby is wanting to go, go, go RVing this summer since he had surgeries last 2 summers, so I am only getting to work on quilt projects in short spurts. So I plan to spend most of Sunday afternoon hand-quilting Christy's quilt. Hope everyone enjoys their weekend. Best to you, Sandra

Sept week 4 "I wish it would rain"
Q
Comments (56)
Amy, we have not been too fond of dry peas either, but Madge will cook them from time to time. We have a few pounds of PEPH seeds, and have more fresh peas in the freezer, and still some on the vines that should be dry by now. I would have already cut them down if it were not for the added hot wires we strung over them. I have deer problems, but this year they were worse because of the dry weather. The deer would jump the electric fence to eat the peas. My neighbor and I bought over a mile of electric fence wire to discourage the deer. Moni, does your rain gauge ever freeze? I have bought many, only to forget about them and let them freeze and break. I have had a new one for over a year, it had beveled sides. I bought it thinking that maybe the ice would slide up the sides as it expanded. Madge tells everyone that keep it under my bed to protect it, the truth is, I have no idea where it is. We have not done much today. Madge's older brother died this morning. We did go out to eat, but nothing tasted good. I need to go to the wildlife garden and repair the fence. I doubt that I will pick any peas, because we just had another shower, and I dont want to fool with a bunch of wet peas.

But, but, but ... is Kim sooo bad that Cloris should stay???

I feel bad for both Mark and his dad. Mark because he got booted, and his dad, because he wasn't let off the hook.

Who is Mark's Dad? I'm sick of Cloris too. They should get rid of her before she breaks a hip! Also, who is phyllis? I love this show, but I must have missed some of it somewhere along the line.

Dee, Mark's dad is Corky(?), the gentleman dancing with Cloris.

LOL about her breaking hip!

Is is just my jealousy or is Jessica Simpson a horrific singer?

I'm not a Jessica Simpson fan. But, I thought last night was one of her better performances. LOL!

If Cloris doesn't go home next I'm not watching it again.

I cannot believe Cloris is still there. She should have been gone the first week. Just as Gayle said, if she's not gone next week I won't be watching again. She is really an obnoxious person and there is absolutely no entertainment factor with her. I feel sorry for her dance partner for having to put up with her.

Corky is a real trooper and has been famous in the Ballroom Dance field for 30 or more years I didn't know his son was dancing thanks for the info
And I didn't enjoy that hip hop dance troop with the lights on their costumes. And I wish they'd play real recognizable Ballroom dance music for these dances. I don't care if they play the same piece for each couple

Remember how long they kept that (c)rap clod on a season or so ago, because he was controversial. I think thats why Cloris has stayed so long. I also think the results are partially fixed for ratings. I still enjoy the dancing and the efforts that go into learning a new dance or two every week. Dottie

I agree about something being fixed, as to why someone might stay. Although, I don't know why that should be, because the show will be fun without the dopey stars. But remember, it's not about the dancing.

I think if Cloris doesn't go next week I'm going to throw a great big tantrum....but I'll still watch. Actually I didn't see her last night as I was taking medicine and then she was done.
Deemarie, thanks for the info. Corky has never been on the show before has he? I don't remember him if he has. I don't think the couple eliminated last night should have gone either. My dgd is probably devastated as she loved the girl...Kim Kardashian? Is that her name? Man, I think I've had too much sugar today. I can't get anything straight!
Dee in Michigan...yeah, I got that right!
