Been busy as usual, how about everyone else?
Comments (1)I still have been picking some hot peppers and beans from the garden. My winter squashes are just starting to come in now (I've picked two so far.) I've been saving LOTS of seeds this past month. I'm slowly getting my dining room table back. LOL! It was an off year for tomatoes & melons (lets blame that on the weather!) I loved the display the petunias and cosmos put on this year. I would have never grown them if it weren't for this forum. Zinnias and marigolds put on a good show too. I plant flowers for my Mom too. She loved how showy the daturas were. Cosmos, calendula, bachelor buttons, balsams, variegated nicandra and marigolds all did well for her too!...See Moreeveryone's too busy gardening to post messages
Comments (63)I post on the Fruit and Orchards forum and the people over there are forever taking about the best ways to net blueberries so the birds don't eat them all. I know that when I was first looking into bird attracting berries no one ever mentioned blueberries but the birds go nuts over them. Anyway, before I planted the 12 new blueberries I already had about 20 in my yard but many of those are not mature so only afew are giving fruit. I just kept planting more blueberries so that there might be enough for everyone. When these two newer batches of Blueberry shrubs mature, there surely should be enough. I like to go out in the morning and eat ripe blueberries straight off the shrubs. So far there has never been enough to actually pick some to bring inside. Good timing on my planting as it raining today so they should get a good soaking, along with the hardy and fragrant lily bulbs I planted this week and lots of rose shrubs because they are pretty....See MoreIs Everyone Busy Today?
Comments (11)Too busy! I had to haul out the dreaded ironing board and iron clothes to take to Charleston. My iron decided to spurt water all over the clothes instead of steaming and I had a devil of a time with it. I finally got all that done and everything is packed and ready to go into the car tomorrow. I made a reservation yesterday for the Baymont Inn in Harry's hometown in Georgia yesterday morning, but hadn't received an e-mail confirmation so I called. They couldn't find it and then I got cut-off. Called back later and finally made the res over the phone. Got the e-mail confirmation for a Baymont in Savannah. Arrrggg! Harry finally got the phone number for the right place and I called and got the reservation. Some days things just don't work easily. Did the usual daily cleaning and made a pizza for dinner. Still have to e-mail our girls and my SisIL with our plans, so I'd better get to it before I fall asleep at the keyboard. Harry took the car in for an oil change, checkup and car wash but they couldn't wash it because of the way our scooter lift is on the back. So after he got home he called a place to see about getting it washed and detailed ($100). He decided just to go for the car wash!! DSis will be here tomorrow and I'm really looking forward to kickin' back with her for a while....See MoreIs Everyone Busy Today?
Comments (12)Took Makayla to a mall that has a LLBean and got her a new bookbag. As we walking through the mall, some girl came up and tapped me on my shoulder. I turned and looked really funny. 'Like I am suppose to know you!' Come to find out her and went to high school/ cosmetology school together 35 years ago!!! I just cannot believe she knew who I was! Then I met with a Myspace friend at Starbucks. She is from Alabama and I know her daughter. Makayla and I then went to Toys R Us to look at what size bike she to get. We found one and I will pick it up after she goes home. Since it is for her birthday which is the end of September. Now, she is watching cartoons while I am on here and finishing up my homemade crab soup. Deb...See Moreglenda_al
