Dang! I have to vent! Moma had my brother arrested again Friday night. She violated the court order by letting him come stay with her. He violated it by going to her house. He threatened her again, so she had him arrested. To make a long story short, she borrowed my vehicle to go sign papers against him yesterday. They told her to come back Monday. She tells me last night that she may not sign the papers! What? I went through the roof! I told her that my sister and I can't take any more of this. Talked to my sister and we are putting up a united front by posting "No Trespassing" signs.(He has to walk down my driveway to get to Moma's house, which is on my sister's property). I am so resentful of him. My sister and I will do anything for Moma, but he is her "Prodigal Son." He is so self-absorbed that he will buy groceries, but tell my Moma that she can't have them (he gets food stamps)! Any money he makes is spent on booze (never pays her a dime when he's staying there)! He takes the remote from her and watches what he wants! UGH! I'm mad at him for the way he treats her and mad at her for allowing him to do it over and over again! My children know that I will never put up with them if they act like this! I raised a stepson that put me through hell and I divorced 2 alcoholics! Plus 35 years of my brother's alcoholic and drug problems! I'm over it!

OK, on to better things! Fly, Robin, Fly! I'm guessing it will be after Christmas when I get it. But I will be ready! ☺

Mount Sterling, KY(Zone 6b)

Julie, you are next after me, so I will try to get it out ASAP, But coming at Christmas is a gamble. You know how the P.O. is around Christmas! Good luck to both of us!

Ocean Springs, MS

Nanny, don't rush! I'll be here when you're done! ☺

well afternoon or evening about I guess been busy cleaning another raised bad & Planted 30 Packs of seeds .
all of them were perennials & needed cold treatment so thought what better way then to plant them out over the winter months ,Don't worry I saved some seeds of each back so if they do not come up in the spring as I Hope they will then I will replant them:)
#1 still have more room to plant yet
#2 is My thyme Barrel with the Solar Angel from Julie
#3 is full with New seeds &
#4 is one of my Primulas in Bloom today this is Lacy Lady.
Yes those are little White tags in the Dirt I Just Hope the cats or chickens don't pull them out I will be in DEEP S!!!! If They do . well off for a Bowl of chili its cooling off out side :)

Very nice, Susie! I have so much cleaning and weeding to do, but I'm trying to get all my Christmas sewing done first. I will be cleaning plants next weekend to get them ready to come indoors for the first frost.

My boys just left. I cooked chili for them! They ate it up! Two teenage boys eat more in two days here than my daughter and I eat all week! LOL

My week is filling up again. Sewing tomorrow. Tuesday??? Might have to make a trip to Gulfport and make a couple of stops at Home Depot and Lowes! Wednesday- dog getting groomed, grocery shopping and my doctor's appt. Thursday- making and canning jelly and salsa with Destiny and Angele. Friday- pottery!

Y'all have a good night! Julie Hmmm! Think I'll clean and bag some of my seeds tonight!

Natick, MA

Looking good, Susie!
Do yourself a favor and for each bed, take a piece of paper and make a rough drawing of what you planted where...as a backup in case those labels get pulled out.
Looks like you did ALOT of planting!

Greensburg, PA

Best wishes on those seeds, Susie. I have some in need of cold, too, but will have to refrigerate them because I mulched all of my gardens this fall with mushroom compost to enrich the soil. Seeds don't germinate in the stuff, so they'll have to be germinated indoors in the spring. I'm looking forward to germinating indoors, as this spring will be the first time I've germinated a bunch of stuff indoors, aside from once a couple years ago I successfully germinated thyme. I've created an indoor "garden" area for myself this year using a 48x18" six shelf wire shelving unit and have attached GE closet sunshine bulbs to each shelf. I've been having a lot of fun extending my gardening season this year. I've successfully rooted cuttings of lantana, petunias and coleus. Aside from the coleus, I've never rooted cuttings before. I'm experimenting with a lot of other things, as well. Have you sewn these seeds in the fall before?
