Sorry I've been gone. Lisa was here from Arizona and I really didn't take the time to come by here.

It will be so good when she can relocate here. A couple of days a month together is just not good for a marriage.

Did you see this one in today's DG newsletter? Nice play on the gardening theme.

That's a cute one KC!

So many great thoughts for the day here that I'm going to have to make myself a list of them.

O.K. I've been lurking enough, had to put in my two cents worth. Love the thread.



It's never too late to have a happy childhood. But the second one is up to you and no one else.

I sometimes think I skipped most of the first one, so I'm making sure the second lasts. Good one, Sis!

Mom's doing the same thing, still keeping it going at 95!!

Finally have a quote to share!

We are not human beings having a spiritual experience. We are spiritual beings having a human experience.

Wish I knew who to attribute it to!


Angie

We'll just attribute it to you then.

Teilhard de Chardin....

I had a rather strange experience with that quote years ago. We were on our way up to Idyllwild and there was a VW bus ahead of us and there was something written on the back in a hard to read script. We weren't close enough, coming up on it, and I couldn't see it to read it, but all of a sudden I knew what it said without reading it....gave me goosebumps

Hyperbole is the best thing ever!

"I have six locks on my door all in a row. When I go out, I lock every other one. I figure no matter how long somebody stands there picking the locks, they are always locking three."

Cottage....garden.

Good morning all. May each of us find peace in our garden today.

Tuesday Thought for the Day:

My green thumb came only as a result of the mistakes I made while learning to see things from the plant's point of view.

I'm coming out from being a by stander, and take part on this thread. Thanks all for wonderful sharing.

DP, I especially like that in which you've just shared.

Dale, I'm still laughing!

There can be no other occupation like gardening in which, if you were to creep up behind someone at their work, you would find them smiling.

When one of my plants dies, I die a little inside, too. ~Linda Solegato

OK one more I giggled just thinking about this one.

Earth is here so kind, that just tickle her with a hoe and she laughs with a harvest.
