Comments (150)LeapingFrogLady...can I please please please get one of those hibiscus plants? I have toying with the idea of tomatoes, I would love to get one of those toos. As for vegetables from me; I have some Purple Tomatillio seedlings that came up last week. still small but should be transplant size soon. Nasturtiums can be used an herb (real spicy). I tend to throw them in my salads to liven it up. I have plenty of those. Columbine seeds just germinated this week as well. I have a list of more stuff locate up top.

Comments (28)I guess I'm a "Lady Realtor" (*snicker*) and I've been having to show after dark far too often since the winter darkness usually begins before people get off work. It's something we have to deal with. What I've been showing is a really nice vacant townhouse to people who find it off Zillow, usually. Not a great scenario. So what do I do? I do not carry concealed and believe that most Realtor scenarios (narrow hallways, stairwells, in and out of rooms) do not lend themselves to be able to protect yourself if you are relying on digging your weapon out of your handbag. I talk to the gate guard after I go in and get the key and turn on the lights. He has my card and knows which unit I'm showing, and usually wanders down there to chit-chat with me because he's bored and I'm friendly. I meet the prospect in the parking lot outside the gate, and take pictures of their ID and license plate and text them to someone who can help me (my husband usually, but if he's at work, my teammate) and they know the address where I am. I am required to call them in 30 minutes after sending. This meeting in the parking lot also gives me a chance to feel the person out. Most have been women and many have brought their kids. Nobody has balked at letting me check their ID. If I know I'm meeting a man, I bring my 17yo son. He hates it because it's boring, but too bad for him. I make the prospect walk ahead of me into every room, up the stairs, and never get between me and the door. It's not that difficult in a small condo to wave people ahead and point stuff out from the doorway. After they leave, I lock the door and then go around to turn off lights and text that I'm fine and how the showing went. And I take a few minutes to talk to the gate guard before I drive off. (Bringing snickers bars to the guard has helped our relationship as well, but if someone doesn't rent this place soon, someone is going to start wondering what's going on between us!) And, I'm getting a FirstSign to hold in my hand. Wish I had one a month ago, when I was checking on a vacant home and found the back French doors wide open, but none of these products that I've wanted have been available yet. (I specifically wanted one that called 911, not just one such as the Cuff that merely texts your friends) Here is a link that might be useful: First Sign product...See MoreBacksplash planning--Eam44 and other experts please help!
Comments (51)Thank you, smm5525. Love your kitchen and am thinking about minuet. Kitchen designer is recommending Chantilly Lace, but it seems too stark, so I'm glad to know Minuet works so well with Simply White....See MoreDo you have any fun, interesting, exciting, different plans for 2019?
Comments (69)So many great plans here! I'm so jealous! I have the next five months of intense work to look forward to and no time off at all. This summer, I'm contemplating taking my mother and my daughter to see Mom's people in Indiana. My daughter has just a few short weeks between grad school terms and she has this sweet relationship with my 88 year old aunt. It feels like I ought to make that trip happen. My spouse and I discussed a New England trip this fall and I might have to start making plans for that, just to keep sane over the next few months!...See Morejshore
