A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion The Banter Hall 2134 ~ coming back for more

Good morning everyone!I finished cleaning my room.Next is the kitchen.

Hi everyone! It's a slow sunday at work today and I'm trying to get back into being a "regular" here again. I gotta get my posts up, I've been here over 2 years and I'm not even at 4000 yet! Ha ha, hope everyone is having a good day today!

Hi Cheryl. I didn't know you worked on Sunday. Is it usually slow?

I work every other Sunday and Sundays are usually slow and quiet.

I just got back from a Walmart run. I expected to park way out in Timbuktu and have to walk in but it was very easy parking up close. It never is on a weekend at noon. That is worrisome for the economy in general.
My day is about done already. Just have a sprinkler or two to move around. I slept in and woke with a headache. I am still trying to shake the headache. But my laundry is done and my mowing for the day. Next on my list is pinning Ted down and cutting the hair out of his eyes.

hope the headache eases quickly.

we are going to ellie's for dinner i don't have to cook.

although, i'm not sure how much i'm going to eat anyway. not real hungry

laundry is getting done, i still have one more day to finish it

Is laundry ever really finished though? My empty hamper isn't empty any more.
I will need to take meds for my headache. I was trying to avoid that. But driving out in the bright sunshine nearly killed me.
I hope you are able to eat something, Jiffy. And then when you finish, send me a doggy bag. I seem to be always hungry. Or at least have a craving for some unknown something.

well, if i don't eat, there will be a doggy bag, but if i do, there won't i love jeremy and ellie, and they are both good cooks, but jeremy believes in portion control. so there is rarely seconds if they are doing the cooking not that i don't need some of that, but you know, when something is good? sometimes just one more bite would finish the satisfaction

so, you are right about laundry not ever being quite done either. so i'm not really sweating that.

yea Jiffy, just wash what you want to take with you--the rest will wait--drat it any way !!!

I wish you a safe and happy trip!!!

thank you carol. i'm sure we will have fun. it is just nerve wracking to wait for it to start :wink:

your welcome, Jiffy---and I am sure once you are on your way all will be well.

I also think it will be a relaxing time for the both of you.
Good times ahead---

That is a bit scary about walmart not being crowded today as far as the economy goes. if I could run this country I could fix it! it's not hard. it's not rocket science here. get some of these people that are on welfare or unempoyment and send them to areas of need. down here where people are still living in shelters and out of their cars since the hurricane or out in california where there is fire damage. how bout putting some of the welfare and unempoyment people working some extended hours during the week and saturdays at the D.M.V or similar places????? anyone try to get their license renewed lately???

Ok.....cricket had her soap box moment. I'm off now!

How is everyone enjoying the last bit of weekend?
I now have all my fall seedlings transplanted or thinned out. I've watered everything this afternoon except two flower beds. and got everyone at least a pile of clean laundry done. also did supper and just gotta clean up before bed time.

I went to school today for the first time in a few days.I'm feeling better now.I have a lot of work to do but thankfully it's not due until Friday.

i'm glad you are feeling better enrique.

Wow, shocking. I'm up and nobody else is here!

Just had some chocolate chip waffles for breakfast! Hello out there!

Hello, Loz. good morning everyone.
it's cold here this morning. there was frost on my windshield. it is supposed to be in the upper 60's later on this afternoon though.

I want your weather!

Mark said when he got to work a few of the vehicles had an inch of snow on them, the ones coming from the higher elevations.

What do you have planned today?

I'll be leaving for work in about an hour.
an inch of snow on vehicles, huh? BRRRR!

Ah, the W word.

I hope you have a good day!

We don't have snow at my house, but we're supposed to get flurries today so they say.....we'll see. But it's COLD out there.

It is supposed to get in mid to upper 90s here today but considerably cooler tomorrow. And maybe rain on the weekend. I look forward to rain.

Oh yes, Good morning everyone.

Ah............I would like that heat back so I could swim in my pool, I miss that.

I hope you get your rain Tina.

I might lay back down, I've got up way too early--my eyes are burning now.

good morning everyone.


we had a cold snap here--but it is supposed to get at least back up into the 60's by the weekend--
I too hate that "W" word.

ooohhhh.....90's sound good.
good luck on that rain, tina.
have a nice nap loz.

What has happened to Floweringchild "Stephannie"? Anyway, I haven't seen her around. Has anyone else?

My mom bought some candy yesterday and I ate it! I couldn't help myself! I also got in trouble for running around with scissors. My brother made me angry and I found the nearest pair of scissors and began chasing him.I learned my lesson

was the candy supposed to be saved for halloween?
that name floweringchild rings a bell. no I have not seen a post by her any time lately.
I just got a shower and got my warm jammies on. mmmm...mmmm....so comfy!
I have been eating like crazy lately. anyone else? I swear I should have been born a bear. all I want to do in the winter is hide under a blanket and eat! ha ha

The candy was for halloween.I don't feel sorry at all for eating the candy.

I haven't seen Stephanie in a while either,,,, Stephanie Where did you Go??????? Maybe I can find her address and send her out a "Where the Heck Ya been " card!,,

Is it Friday yet????

I know right Cricket are you having a bad day or a bad week

I'm actually having a good day and a good week so far.
I'm just 'dead dog tired' already!

holy comalie! we just got our first freeze warning for the season! it is expected to be below freezing for a couple of hours in the morning. I'm glad I brought my 'delicates' in on sunday. they are safe and sound in the garden tub! geezzz! I can't ever remember bringing in plants in October before! it seems WAY too early.

killing frost here last night, and now it's suppose to warm up again

We got a killing frost here a few days ago--now it is warming back up again----

the weather lady said we could take our plants back out again for a while if we wished--yea right---I don't think so. I do wish I had of been able to properly clean them up though. Just not gonna happen this year.

II did prune back my citrus 'tree' and take alcohol dipped QA-tips to it for the mealyu bugs---it is downstairs in quarentine for now--since I may not of gotten them all yet.

so what is everyone up to today???

boy she must like to work, on ce mine are in they are in

I usually take my plants in and out at the beginning of winter and towards the end, but I'm seriously thinking about not doing that this year. I have so many plants now, and last year I almost killed some by accidentally leaving them out during one on those 'ify' nights.
I had a nice peaceful shorter than usual work day today. I sure needed that. I went to early voting this afternoon. am I a big dumb dumb? I didn't even know you could vote early unless you had an extreamly good reason and documented proof of being out of your county or something?? I highly sugguest the early voting thing. there was 20-25 people ahead of me in line, and that was at 3:30 when most people are still at work!
I like your pumpkins, belinda.
