Good morning all,

I don't think I've a prayer of catching up, but I'll try. I thought you were all gonna sleep in this morning.

I've still got the cold - it's a dandy. Didn't do anything yesterday except work at the computer and go out once. I post a pic of my car and my NEW indulgence - vanity plates [my old plates were probably 12 yrs old and getting quite rusty] . They came yesterday and I went out to get them activated and installed. But as far as getting anything useful done, no. I spent the evening watching TV and tyeing in ends of afghan pieces. Even cancelled out on attending a practice of one of my students and his accompanist for the Kiwanis Music Festival. Told them I didn't really want to share the cold. (Hope I haven't already shared it too much around my bell choir - I need tham ALL next Sunday[30th] both to play in church and to play for a massed bell concert in the evening.) I'll try to get the rest of my seeds planted today. As to whether I join the family to celebrate DD's birthday which was yesterday, that remains to be seen. I'll see how I feel a bit later.

Sarv, if you know which of your hostas are too big, at this time of year, you can just take a spade and cut the clump. Check out the Hosta forum. Last summer we compiled a long list of sun tolerant hostas.

I do my potting mostly in the porch but it's on the floor. I think I'm too old and will bring the rest into the kitchen. But my DH will probably complain. LOL

Welcome Stacy. Dunno how there's time to do more than one coffee. Just this one is a challenge to keep up with.

dmc - funny how some things NEED to be certain colors. We have the same furniture up here, but here they call it Muskoka furniture. I suspect Adirondack was first though. But maybe 'cause I spent my first 9 formative years living in the Adirondacks.

Kooger, sad to say, but it sounds as though Kandyce has some serious growing up to do. prayers for all of you and especially Kayleigh who's caught in the middle of it. I hope you are able to resolve everything, but I don't expect it's going to be easy.

Sheila, actually it's raining here, but we need it. It's been glorious all week, but gardens are dry.

Hi Julie - nice to have you stop by.

Lauri - Salsa is certainly lucky to have landed with you. Glad you're able to cheat a bit with him on the walks. Ignore the neighbour.

I'll drop by later.

Ann
