My wife knows I'm cheating...
..and she approves!
For the past 14 years we've been vendors at one of our local gardening clubs and the bulk of what we bring are of course hostas. When we started out it was the first Saturday in May but with a change in venue about 8 years ago came a change in date. It's now the first Saturday in April and of course we'd be hard pressed to bring much in terms of leafed out product. Last year I decided it might not be a bad idea to bring in some pots to give them a head start and bring a decent looking plant to the sale. That worked out really well, best results we'd had in a few years. So this year I've brought in a few more and some of them are going gangbusters already. It's so nice to see that bright green again in this dreary weather!
This is a 'Ray of Hope' doing its best to impress.
And here's the lot of them...
Under the grow lights I have started some lettuce and spinach, they'll be ready to go into the cold-frames by mid-month.

Cheating Wife - need HELP!
Comments (16)caityross that is brilliant! I love it. After all, we have Mother-In-Law's Tongue, so why not Cheating Wife? I would buy one for sure. In fact, I am going to get hybridizing. (Should it look like the wife or the bastard she's cheating with? Or the two of them, together, on an old bench in the potting shed? Lots of legs and hair. A tangled mess. Rapturous.) tapla, so glad that the scale cleared up. Thank God it wasn't Mealeybug. And I hope the others joined in to rub off the scale rather than you having to use poison that can accidently spray in the wrong direction, up peoples' noses....See MoreScore!, otherwise known as: my wife thinks I'm nuts.
Comments (3)As long as you can keep the coils working, these will last you a long time. My current trimmer is an 88 LB that I picked up for free. It is beat up but runs OK. I will look into its throttle issues this winter. BTW, my wife KNOWS I'm crazy....See MoreCaught my wife cheating...
Comments (48)I also have a cheating wife and I went through all the above. I would not give advice to anyone, but, I can share what I have found. The actual hurt diminishes in time. It doesn't completely go away. I made the mistake to immediately forgive my wife out of love, and according to her friend she took it as "I didn't love her enough to be mad at her". Your going to hear a lot of bull about it being half your fault. Unless you are a real bad guy, the problem is in her head. After time you will resent her. Not resent her for cheating, but actually resent having to "help her through her problems". If you don't have kids, dump her now! Life is too short to waste it on her. If you have kids, then do the counseling thing. Where am I after 4 years? I am tired of hearing about her being lonely. Her life is no different than mine, and I don't get that option. I am tired of compensating for what going on in-between her ears. I am not her mother or babysitter. When we have sex, in my head I still see her giving head to her first boyfriend, bouncing up and down on her second boyfriends lap, oral sex on her girlfriend, and going down on the last guy (friends boyfriend) for 3 hours because he had whiskey dick. Yes I made the mistake of asking for details. I used to love sex, now she repulses me. She is in a depression now and lives in bed when not working. I now have to live in a pig sty. Her nick name from her girl friends is "Fat, Drunk, Slut!" "Her" friends feel sorry for me. I am trying to figure out a way to leave her without effecting our kids. If I find the right woman, I'm outta here! F... Her!...See MoreWife cheated Entire Marriage, do I stay? - Help
Comments (11)I think a new councellor is needed as this one seemed to side with your wife. A councellor should not side with anyone. I'm hesitant to say you should leave. I don't know if it is because I am siding with your wife (because I am female) or if it is because I can imagine the things she says are true. Yes, I suspect that many an affair could be like that between your wife and her ex-boss (the fact that it went on for so long). Yes, us women need (maybe not straight away but sooner or later) to feel beautiful and desirable. So, my thought is that perhaps a new councellor should be found and see how you both feel about that. And, yes, I think that your wife has to start seeing that she is 50% of the equation (not nil) but perhaps she feels guilty and this is her way of handling this guilt....See More

In this batch of hostas I brought indoors is a 'Golden Tiara' and it's very confused by the looks of it: a scape before that particular shoot leafs-out...

A great many of the ones I 'forced' indoors have now been moved outside. We've had great weather, temps into the mid-teens C during the day and while this will somewhat slow down their growth it will harden them off and get ready to be planted in someone-else's garden come April 6th.

Okay, just had a peek. Indeed the lighter green one is clausa, just look at how it circles the 2-gallon pot, and there's a 'Ray of Hope' in front of it. Having said that I really should be referring to RoH as 'Rollercoaster Ride'. Why you ask? It's like this, I received it as RoH about 8 years ago or so but over the years it has gone from streaked to variegated and that makes it RR. Much better results than the 'Ice Age Trail' I received in the same shipment, it's pretty much all reverted back to 'Big Daddy'...Pieter
