Suzy, wonderful stuff you've got going!!!!! Glad you caught up with the thread . . . it is fast becoming one of my favorites. And here we are longing for SPRING when it's only November 7th!!

Seedpicker, guess what - I overwhelm myself so badly that I about come unglued! Can't seem to stop myself, though. I hope by next spring I can cut my workday down to three which would leave me with one complete day to myself for my gardening. I'm sure I will still have two with my folks in town and at least half a day at church and spending time with my stepson. Speaking of my stepson, here's a pic of him after he and I finished our project of changing a sandbox (inherited with the property - really solid!) into a flower bed of sorts (June 2003). A lot has changed in the backyard since then - there is a garden along the fence (the one with the Shasta daisies) and the picnic table has been moved over towards the deck. The little garden itself has evolved several times and I completely changed it last month as it was overgrown and I had put in some Hellenium which got way too tall for it. The fountain has quit working and I have to decide if I want to try to fix it, replace it, or just leave it as a statue (maybe with flowers growing in the basin?).
