West: Suggestions? You want suggestions? Tiffy and I would fill the front garden area with beautiful flowers, and we shamelessly lure unsuspecting victims to our obsession. Wintersow flowers for next to nothing. Required are empty milk jugs or other plastic containers with lids, potting mix, some cheap seeds (and we can direct you to some free seeds too...) In Tenessee, I start with things like echinacea and Black eyed Susans, gaillardia and agastache, salvia, melampodium... Email me or Tiffy if you're interested- we'll get you on the road to a beautiful flower garden by summer. And you can wintersow veggies, too. Karen

Thank you for your thoughts - very well taken too, honestly! :-) I originally thought to do an all LL at first, then I wanted to find AB so badly as a neighbor for LL, but got caught in the color lures of QF & her earlier bloom time (just a mo. after Peonies!). So I thought perhaps, to alternate LL & QF ... even AB as the 3rd then prune them to similar size ... not convinced, I stopped! I finally found AB, as you might have read - posted in May ... decided to plant her elsewhere to take advantage of her potential stature. So now back to square 1! I have several foundation beds & patches/islands with textures, colors & staggered bloom time . I liken my piece of soil (my 2nd-childhood/playground, really! LOL) to a grandma's quilt ... not an award-winning quilt, but a comfy, soft - even perhaps, sloppily-stitched-together utility quilt, full of warm memories!!! The part/shade, other half (separated by steps) of the retaining wall top came out wonderfully with different plants (3 are Hs) punctuated by my grotto at the N end! The wall that collapsed after our '100-yr-flood of '93' was rebuilt - now Baltic Ivy covers it well. I'm hoping that the sunny half, will also be completely covered by H petiolaris in a few years. I'm not rushing with this hedge-like row of paniculatas, but will dig up 2-3 Peonies & prep a hole. Would love to read others' thoughts & ideas too! MTIA!!! <:->

Justgot2beme - I'm almost embarassed that you saw all of those pics! Shows my decorating (or paint) indecisiveness! Thank you for the compliment! Hey Red - The Waverly Vintage Tea Stain is close but still a diff. pattern. The one that I have is Waverly La Petite Ferme'. The Tea Stain looks a tad bit more on the brown side but still slightly green. I've been playing w/ SW samples again and I'm 99.99999% sure I'm painting over the BT w/ BM Strathmore Manor. It's so close to the BT (but a bit more on the brown side) that DH hasn't even noticed that 1/2 the rm. is brown & the other half is green! I tried to paint leftover BT over all of my spackle patches and it just looks bad to my eye. I even had it professionally shaken before painting. It just dried noticably lighter so I figured - 'What the hey' a sample is only $5 - I have to repaint the whole thing anyway. The hall went BM Ivory Porcelain, the office BM Jonesboro Cream (KMCG, if you're reading it does look FABULOUS w/ Bosp. Toile in Flax). The DR is going SW Irish Cream. The hall and DR ceiling are going SW Cavier and the walls in the kitchen (which the hall leads into) are going black w/ Jonesboro Cream or Irish Cream cabintery. I'm pretty sure I'm moving the LR toile curtains into the kitchen since I've been unsucessful in locating the additional 2 pairs that I need. All of the colors except for Irish Cream and Caviar are off of the same BM strip. Fingers crossed I can go buy all of the paint that I need in the next 2 wks. and knock it out. I thought I was making a compromise when I decided to go all brown to sell the house but these colors are really great. I think becuase of the green tone that seems to be in the BM colors. The black ceiling is my unexpected twist and I think that since primarily all of the walls in the kitchen are covered in cabinets that will be rich cream, that the black peeks of wall will be pretty cool but not overwhelming to a buyer.

Two control boards are the standard for frontload washing machines, and probably some toploaders. One has the cycle programs and user interface buttons/knobs, the other controls the motor, pump, water valves and other machine components according to the cycle programs. Apparently Bosch uses a similar design for their dishwashers. Older Fisher & Paykel DishDrawers (double-drawer units) have three boards (+ two if the little LCD panels are counted), newer versions I believe have four.
