I think we are going with cheese and crackers. I have had enough food for one week. We are having a turkey dinner at a friends house after we help another friend put up a green-house. We have not unpacked yet but we have planted every Hosta that Dee sent and Maggi is sooo excited. They looked so good and should put on a real show the first year, thanks.
Xcandida

Ken
it sounds like you're going to be really busy, I am glad you made it home safe, I bet you're glad to be back,
Dee does send nice plants, I love hosta's I have them everywhere
Elizabeth
Just want to keep my buds smiling, as they do for me..
Dee
Hey, Ken..where are the pics?
Elizabeth, did you see that I'm getting a Doosie Cutting?
Dee
Elizabeth, as soon as I get my seedlings potted up, I am gonna try to start the seeds that you sent..
Dee
Dee
I did see where you got your doosie, you go girl, I think you'll like the seeds, I may have to break down & buy what they have at lowes, it's a 72 pack peat pellets, with a seedmat only thing they want $32.00 for it, I have to wait till my friend is at work so I can get itmarked down
Elizabeth
Oh, Elizabeth, it sounds great! Use every connection, you have girl! My seedlings are beginning to get fat leaves.They are growing fast now. I'll post a pic after I get them transplanted ...this week-end hopefully. I am transplanting to pretty small pots. I know I will have to trasplant again soon, but it will save on room, for the time being.
Dee
Dee
I do very little transplanting in winter, did you check out the forcast, it's suppose to be low 28 degrees, I have to check the GH, may have to bring a couple more plants in, I brought Superspot & Rosalla lillaXWilfire in the house, it has buds
on it, I found 2 more when I brought it in, it's in my kitchen window, I sure know what you mean by saving space
I think our cold weather is here for awhile
Elizabeth
Yes, I saw the forcast, but it is supposed to warm back up the first of the week here with lows being in the 40's.
I think it is wnderful that you still have blooms. I know you will post pics for us when they open.
I am trying to talk my oldest daughter into taking the queen size bed out of one of our spare bedrooms...I am still planning on having a grow room, next year..lol
Dee
I bet Charleen went to bed on us..Did you see the pic of Charley in the racing cap I sent him..lol He has to be one gentle critter, letting
charleen put things on his head and posing for pics..
Dee
Dee
that would be wonderful to have a greenroom, it's just what you need, I did see charley, he's such a cute fellow
I will post Pic's when, my special plant Blooms, you know I love Pic's, I have an amaryllis blooming on the kitchen table
I will also get a Pic of that, Saturday night I am putting my tree up, I think Charlene has gone to bed, she's early to bed early to rise person, I have a cake in the oven for my MIl's Birthday tommorrow, it's one of her favorites
Elizabeth
Dee
did you see Mike's greenroom, he has it set up like a GH
Elizabeth
What kind of cake are you baking for her Elizabeth? That's so nice of you.I'd love to see the pic of your amaryllis. I love any and all blooms in the winter. Do you know if we are supposed to have a mild winter, Elizabeth. I know it has been so far, but what is the prediction?
Dee
Yes, I saw it Elizabeth! Isn't it great?! I'd love to have something like that.But,I don't think my spare room is near as big as his, but I would be very happy with it, even at this size..lol
Dee
Dee
I am making her a watergate cake, I bet since we had a hot summer, then this winter is going to be cold, but we always get the worse of it in Feb. that seems to be when we get the really cold & a lot of snow, it has been nice hasn't it
but Tuesday it's December, I remember last December we had some days it was 50 degrees, & I was still getting cuttings & plants
Elizabeth
Elizabeth, I think I'm gonna get off of here.My daughter is wanting to check her e-mails. I'll talk to you to tomorrow..Good night, elizabeth.
Dee
Dee
our windows aren't plant friendly either, the only good windows I have are all on one side, so I have to have the basement for most of my plants
Elizabeth
Dee
have a good nights rest, talk to you tommorrow
Elizabeth
Morning everyone.I went to bed early, so I'm up with the chickens..lol Still trying to rested up, after the holiday.
Dee
Good Morning Dee. It is a beautiful morning and I think I am getting a cold. If it isn't one thing it is something else.
Yep, went to bed early, Dee. I went to bed with the chickens, hehehe. My pillow is giving my neck heck. I don't know
what is going on. DH says I'm "getting old" Ain't going to listen to him, at all.....
Charleen
Tell you husband to just hush!..lol I do know what you mean about your pillow, I used to have one that I loved, but it wore out and I haven't been able to find the right one since.My husband has a super soft(thin) feather pillow.And I have a super thick feather one, but it's not thick enough...lol
Dee
Maybe that's what I need a super thin. I know I sure don't like my neck hurting.
Even when I tun to look at something. It is a little better. Thanks to the Ben-Gay.
Charleen
I hope your neck feels better soon, Charleen.I know how bothersome that can be..Dee
DH says I just have "to work it out"
Got my litle horse and buggy put up. It's small but I love it.
Will have to take pic for you. Want to put lites in dogwood tree.
nice today.
Charleen
Are you girls Ok, eat to much turkey?
Lol, Ken...I think we are all trying to get rested up...Good morning, to ya!
Dee
Godd morning Ken, Dee and Elizabeth and anyone else who visits.
Beautiful day today.
Charleen
Mornin' Charleen, how's your neck doing today?
Dee
It is better. Still had to "doctor" it up last night
but lots better. How are you all today? I better enjoy today
rain coming in tomarrow.
Charleen
Charleen, have you ever heard of Soltice? It's an old fashioned creme that comes in a small jar...that you rub on pulled muscles etc...Good stuff!!
All is good here today...a beautiful 47 degrees..
Dee
DH found some Rollon that smells of methal
and does a fairly good job. Neck is feeling better
every day. Not Near as sore as it was. I don't know what I did, but still
think it was the pillow. Swapped out pillows, AGAIN.
Says 45 degrees here.
Charleen
I transplanted my seedlings last night, then went to bed early.How's your baby doing?
Dee
It looks green , don't know how it looks down below.
I hope the little fella is striong enough to put out roots about the problem.
I have a new seedling up, but it is not a brug. Have cinnamon sprinkled in the soil
on the plant everywhere. I hope it makes it. It looks like it is growing.
Charleen
What is it Charleen? I am going to be ordering my wave petunia seeds soon...Last year I grew "flag mix" which is red white and blue(purple). This year I think I am going to grow a mix of white, pinks and purple/lavenders.
Dee
It is a Fuzzy seed I got from Lazlo. You know in one of his surprize packets.
I think (hope) it is a Morning Glory. Don't buy any I'm in the MG trade too. should get
all kinds of MG. Seed.
Charleen
Oh, cool! I just left trade feedback for you and Elizabeth. I always forget to do that.
Dee
what's trade feedback?
I guess I don't do that.
What brugs did you all want, Mr. George is calling me to come over there to get some.
I'll check out the doubles for Ken. Let me go see if Robert wants to go.
Charleen
charleen, is he going to just give them to you?Do you still have his list. I think we are all double crazy...lol
