Gypsies and Well-diggers....oh my

hhhmmmm....I don't know I think it's better to try than do nothing at all

Hey smiley do have fuzzy socks like these?

or shoes like these?

Hello? Is there anybody out there?

Trina, my fuzzy socks like that are purpley-pink striped.

I don't have those sneaks but I like them!

Trina, I am here! I didn't last too long without a pain pill and then I just took the wrong kind. I pulled up only one tomato plant and I have so much more to do!

I had that tomato plant branches all tied with twine to my fence. I must have tied it in a dozen places.

I quit for the day. Sun went in. My sunroom is officially full. If I put anything else in there DH won't be able to walk around & water everything.

And in the process I must have broke one of those little blood vessels on the inside of my finger, on the knuckle joint. Ever do that? Hurts like the dickens, even though it's a stupid little thing. It's all black & blue.

Ouch, and you had to undo it all, Venice? Then dig it up & put it in a pot? That's a chore!

No way could I put that thing in a pot. It would be laying all over. This photo doesn't even show the top and I doubled over the bottom branches. And that is a 31 gallon tub it is laying on.

The other plant is not that long. The branches went through the fence and the ducks ate the tomatoes and branches on that side!

My bad. I thought you said you were putting them in a pot. Re-read, Julie!!

I said I could put them in a pot or put them back in the corner. One is now hanging back in the corner. Since you can buy tomatoes at the grocery that are on the vine, I figured even though they are out of the ground, they would be ok.

Hey every one. I have been looking at little dwarf goats. OMG,cute,cute !! I know they breed the mini. horses. But didnt know about the goats.Thank you Moon. Probably cant have one though. Would have to build something for it. And we have a critter over load already. Got to take care of the poo babys now. I'll be back in ,in a while. Poo shoveling and raking is an art with me now.Grin. Just a walking,talking dictionary on poo.

I am simply overloaded, overwhelmed, and severely under funded!

I could tell you why you are underfunded!

Cause I pay all the bills with my disability check for the whole house which leaves me with 138 bucks for personal items, like shampoo, deodorant, and my want items.....

Meanwhile running around with 2 grand in his pocket and gives me grief when I ask for money to do anything

Oh, I see. The problem is that he is being tight wad!!

I'm saying that all HIS bills, needs, and wants get paid for every month on time without fail. Meanwhile my bills continue to go unpaid (except 1 & he doesn't know about it & its on autopay!) So yeah I pretty much have to bug him to get money for stuff

Where is moon with all her good advise?

It seems like both of you need to see down and work out your finances in black and white. Put everything on the table.

ahhhh once this stupid house thing is settled it should get better

What do you mean?

He had been behind in his house payments and he couldn't figure out why no matter how much money he paid he couldn't catch up, well according to cancelled checks we had eveverything was caught up, we asked them to please sit down and go over this with us because the math doesn't make since somewhere, and instead we got served for foreclose

What are you going to do? Or what can you do?

Trina, I don't know where my head was when you were talking about Syngoniums (arrowhead). I have had this one growing in the yard for a couple years....Have always called it Nephthytis....it has been in deep shade, so the color is faded, it is usually a rosy pink color in more sun. Not sure which one it is.

Another shot

A little pic for Venice...Oxalis triangularis....

those are blooms leaning to the left.

Wow Moon love the arrow head!, and my oxalis like that, well I must have 2 varities cause some bloom white and some bloom pale pink

Venice the house stuff went to court and will be settled by friday. The judge was not impressed with thier case or the fact that twice they sent payments back

Is any body home? Hello, hello,helloooo I'm hearing echoes again.

Just want to tell every one have a good night. Husband and I are going out to dinner and a movie. Although we will probably watch it at home. Trina hope things get better soon for you and family. By Moon,Trina,Smiley, Dave and all. Catch yall some time tomorrow. Hubby and my little outing is long over due.

We's is here, Dixie!

Well, I won't be for long, it's almost family time. Yes, my sunroom is officially full. We put everything in there that could go in there, no room for more.

So I have (Trina close your ears) some coleus that is going to stay outside and go black if anyone wants some cuttings. They are called Needlepoint, Kiwi Fern and Witch Doctor. I did take cuttings for next year, so I don't have to buy them again. Or by some miracle they survive in the basement (we bring the pots inside so they don't crack).

whatcha seeing, Dixie? I love movies.

Don't worry smiley I had to let mine go black too!

you can only do so much, ya know?

I know, I just threw away 4 brugs and 2 dats (yes I got everyones cuttings first) and I am about to throw enough rose clippings to redo my entire fence line twice!

Smiley, that Kiwi Fern coleus is really cool. If you have a little start of that I would appreciate it. I have never seen that one before. I think that would be a nice texture in may garden in the spring.

ok dumb question here, but uh how do you get the seeds out of chinese lanterns?

I had cherry tomatoes fall of the vines when I pulled them up and hung them. Some might be ripe in 4 -5 days. Then others are green to dark green. I have read what to do with large tomatoes, wrap individually and put in single layer in a bag. I don't think that will work for these little ones! What do you think I should do with them so they ripen and not rot. Didn't both Smiley and Moon grow tomatoes this years? I don't know who else.

I assume you let them dry out completely then see if they will open at a seam.

Are yours dry yet?
