Happy weekend everyone! I've been busy with work and it took forever to get caught up with you!

Hello posyblossom! Welcome. Your bud looks great! Louise I am soo glad it sounds like you have a big success so far! All right! I just wish I was closer to be one of your clients.

I've already told Beck, but as of tomorrow I am changing my shift. No more 2-3 a.m. Now I get to sleep in until 5 a.m. LOL! I will have to get my body clock changed, but I think this will be much better for me. I might actually get to stay up later than 8. And hopefully, I can keep up with everybody better! Catching up is hard.

Okay, I've got something going on with Dr. Suess. It looks like a possible Y, but if it is, it is the tiniest one I've ever seen. And it's on the lowest branch of the whole 5 ft. plant. The little leaves are different levels. But in the middle of this, is a little bitty yellow-looking thing. ( Used my reading glasses and a magnifier, almost down on the ground, trying to keep my bottom from sticking up in the air.) Cannot call it an okra yet, but I have not seen this before. I'm prolly just dreaming, but, hehe, I would like to have one bloom this year. :)

AuntB, I would transport your yard to my house in an instant. You have such pretty things and such a variety. You still have irises coming your way if I can ever get busy and get it done! Audrey, your package is being mailed out Monday! I did not forget you, we just had a solid week of rain.

Okay, don't laugh, but here's my babies in my new brug/hosta bed. They are, from left, Mon Amour du Mariel, Puppy Love, Miss Emily Mckenzie and Pink Marble (noid). Pink Marble has been in a pot all year and just did not like it, so after two weeks in the ground, she is growing like crazy. I know everybody has these big, beautiful brugs, but mine are just getting started, so be patient with me. :)
