Drove in with the girls this morning..wouldn't have taken much tostay hope, sit and enjoy (but I wouldn't have)..lol..

Had a restless night worrying about my sister, tried to reach her this morning and no answer, but I'll not panick..

Liz, I was finding garden like patterns for my faux windows for the back shed near the DG friendship garden I'm attempting..they are calling for rain Fri./Sat. so if I get it sketched out, I can at least paint my inserts..so today I brought in the 2 front panels and will decide what to put on them, then I want to purchase some nice lace so I can use it as part of my curtain design, use the lace as a stencil.. so that will be my day..Paul and Suzanne downtown at a convention and I'm on my own filling in my day...

Went in and watered all my seedlings, do hope they survice the next month, some will be extremely leggy..but I'm going to make paper cups and fill them with soil and put the sunflower seedling in a cup of their own, that might help...I've so many seeds that I got from my plants last year that I was thinking of making a paste of water and flour and brush it on strips of newspaper then drop my seeds..and plants...see how many take..

Carol, bet you have a place to set that lovely birdhouse..how lovely..I sent to my birdhouse swap a birdhouse - quite primitive that I really liked, now I want one and must go shopping on Friday...your friends look as though they certainly have enjoyed their visit..OMG that's a good deal on geraniums..I looked out at the big frame in the back yard and so want to go purchase a hanging basket for it but I'm afraid they are calling for cooler temps coming this weekend along with the rain, so, had better be patient than sorry...

Vicki, is it far to Walmart, seems you are often shopping for extended amount of time, is that because you've a long way to travel? Do you purchase 'compost' rather than creating it? I should check that out..I don't have a composter, guess I should but my knowledge of it's process is very limited..I know, I could learn right..but if you can purchase it, why not...what are you doing with the drywall..

Jeannine, driving thru those conditions must be much like our blizzards...makes for a long trip but bet FIL loved seeing you all..

wow, almost went back to look at your photo Gita, thank goodness I didn't press click or this message would be floating in cyber space...

Well, off to look at my patterns and try to reach Sharon...

Hope it's a gardening day for you all...

Carol, here's the birdfeeder I want to go pick up..Susan 51 says she likes hers...
