when I went to Lowe's and got 2 big pots of yellow snapdragons for $1.00 each and another flat with 6 gigantic, red Gerber Daisy's in it for $6.00. I finally got a great deal!!! They're gorgeous now but will, of course, die back in the cold but will be beautiful in the spring.

Yep JunieGirl. They return every year. They don't multiply like daffodils or iris but they come back in the spring.

Turned out it was only 4 Gerbers for $6.00 but that's still a good deal.

Have to relate a story 2 yrs ago. There was no snow at november 6 th the day we were burying my husband. When we went inside to eat , it snowed a couple inches. Were leaving the hall, And my 4 year granddaughter started snowballing. I had on a vneck type coat an she threw it an it landed right in my v........Her parents were so upset, You hit grandma. Probably the only time I laughed that day.
We get lots of activitys here , thanksgiving, Dec........8 we celebrate both grandaughters birthdays......Together , have to hurry cause christmas is coming.. Then we have christmas, and new years......Helps break up the winter for sure.
Janurary is our worst month for show here......
Said too much .....have a nice day ladies in carolinas an florida.......I have a neice in carolinas near Nascar.

I remember you telling me the snowball story dodge. It seems time goes so fast - for me anyway.
Where does your niece live dodge? My area is all about Nascar.

Mooresville is an hour away from me. Not far at all. Does your niece go to the car races?
