A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion The Banter Hall Coffeehouse 2285, who wants to see me jive?!

Good morning/afternoon!

Geeze, Merme! She didn't look? You are so right about people not taking responsibility for their own actions.

Well... the water came back on late last evening. And now it's off again. The road is blocked (pavement failure, I think it's why the water is off), so we have to go the long way into town. I need to bake some bread, and the recipe doesn't call for water, but I think I'll wait awhile so I can clean up as I go, rather than stack dirty baking things everywhere.

I just hope the water is on before John comes home. Off to jump on the ATV and evaluate the damage done by the storms.

Happy day to alll!

Hi Marica..hope the damage is none.

so if you are here at 7am--that is still 5am here--yep time difference is awful. But when Rod was working I was on at 5:30 ish--that is when he would leave for work,

Yea for us, Sheri !!!!

mine too, Sheri---and both kinds are coming up.

I thought I posted that someplace else--I will need to go and check where

I'll be waiting for Rod to get called back to work so we can have our morning chats.

DH got moved to another garage today for the summer...

Hi everybody!

Well, today has just felt so fractured, I can barely tell if I am coming or going!

The storms in the area just increased the humidity. Thanks a lot!

Waiting on more news of my niece. She is having an MRI at this moment to see if the cancer has spread elsewhere.

She must be scared outta her mind & her husband is being a ninkcompoop! And I'm 500 miles away and can't go down & sit with her OR smack him in the head! So what's an auntie to do, I wanna know?!


Gotta go make supper before my kid starts crying!

Can't believe I missed Shirley! And I've had that freaky spider here/spider gone experience also! And I don't like that one bit!

Bless you child--
but I think he has given up getting called back & is seriously thinking og finding another job.
what is bad about that you say?? well what is bad is apparently welding jobs these days pay about $4--to $5 less an hour & that is the good paying ones.

ok done complaining--I can't wait to talk to you in the mornings either

Where is everybody tonight?

I'm hiding.........

Cindy! I've been thinking of you, good to see you here.

Hide well if you need to, Cindy. Love ya and miss ya.

Merme-- I've been away for a while so pardon me if this is wrong-- but you seem to be a little more fiesty than I'd remembered. You go!! Smack 'em up side the head. Especially if they don't turn to look behind when they back up!

AFGP-- you are always hiding when you are not hiding. Geeze.

UPDATE from the last coffee house. The flashes of lights we saw were instances of St. Elmo's fire (not the movie, the real phenomenon). You can find more about it at wikipedia, but bascially we had a really charged atmosphere, and some pointy objects (grass blades) and kapamomlama... out very own light show.

In other new, our main thoroughfare road is out of commission. Some of you will remember that we moved from Cincy to MIss. for a reason. We have not been disappointed.

Off to do some emailing. Rest well!

Gee, I seemed to have missed everybody, AGAIN!

I'm still here. Just reading more than typing because I'm waiting for my nails to dry.

I should have gone to bed an hour ago. I was just too tired to get up and get ready.
Today was Teddy's birthday. My baby boy is 16, old enough to drive. It won't happen but he is old enough. It is hard to believe.
Good night all.

Happy Belated Birthday Teddy

Good morning all, in for a sec..errands to run.

Good morning. I woke a little early today. But I can always nap later.

Good morning.

Rod got me up early--he forgot that I go to ceramics an hour later now--

So what is up??? anybody home yet???

I am in but getting ready to take Ted to school. It is going to be another warm day today. I like it but am not really ready for summer heat yet. I will try not to whine about 80's.

Well Tina--it's like I say--
it isn't ice & it isn't snow.
in your case it isn't fires nor floods either.

I figure we must be thankful for small favors sometimes.

Yes, I am on a constant search for those silver linings.
Ted is up, dressed and breakfasted. His lunch is packed. He just needs his shoes in a few minutes and we are ready to scoot out the door.

I am hoping Thorny is well. And not too affected by the floods and tornadoes and things. It has been over a week and a half since he posted.

I to am concerned.

well I too must be on my way--i'll cath you all this afternoon at some point/

I hope your ceramics brings you all it usually does, Carol.

I'm at work trying not to work. I'm nervous about my appointment tomorrow, I have a headache, and the nerves are going to be there until next week when I get the results. I'm such a neurotic mess that Aros asked if I was slowly going crazy. Well, I better get some work done. We're having Mother's Day tea this afternoon and I have to help bring people up. Hope everyones having a better day than me.

well everyone--I am back form ceramics. a visit with my mom & then a visit with my brother.---(Mom had lunch for me)

Then when I got home I re-potted my water lily--apparently I left the nnetting on & I was not supposed to. Ah well ya live you learn. I managed to get my water all muddy now but hey it will settle right???

Good to see ya marica I hope things are back to normal around your house.

Cheryl, I hope your Mother's day Tea goes well.---Try to not focus on tomorrow so much... after all, I say why worry until/if there is a reason.

This afternoon I am going to begin cleaning for my upcoming company.--so I will cath ya'all layer.

Carol - have you taken any pictures of your water lily set-up? Would you please start a thread in the water plant forums so we can all follow along to see how it does? Thanks!

I was wondering about doing that, but I didn't know if I should.

So, OK I will--

Of course we'd be interested in following it - and thanks for doing so!

to Lynne


sweet dreams...I think I am going to call it for tonight---
'
Good night everyone---

Good night all.

Good morning all.

I was so busy yesterday, I worked the morning then had to go with DH to town for the afternoon and evening. We only got home at 9:30 pm last night.

The sun is shining, calling for a shower this afternoon..hope it holds off. I still have sods to pick up and throw away.

Good morning, everybody!

Morning Merme, sorry I was off in the p.m. section for a few.

Me, too!

And, getting Maxi off to school.... he leaves in a few minutes.

Time to chat in a bit? or do you have a busy morning?

Hello...I can hear an echo..

yea well, it happens.
People likely have a lot to do to prepare for this weeekend. (Mother's Day) Not to mention the weather has been very nice & we DO love to garden, or getting ready to garden, after all...

Checking in friends. I have been doing allsorts of yard stuff. I vowed to not buy any more things that dont come back next year. I think I will plant myown hanging baskets this season. I saved three pots from last year. Any suggestions? I figure this way they wont be root bound by July.
How is everyone doing? I am so out of touch.

Hi, Kim. I think I am fine. I had a busy day today and not in my garden. But tomorrow I should be able to put in some hours out there.
