Coffee Break!!

Southern, CT(Zone 6a)

Good day gardeners! Last night I had a dream that I was at a local nursery, talking to another customer, only to find out it was someone I new at DG. That's all that I remember from the dream but it took me a while to realize that it didn't really happen!

Appleton, WI(Zone 5a)

Probably was me, just about had you talked into buying that $300 Japanese Maple too.

Southern, CT(Zone 6a)

One thing I rember was that it was a woman. What are telling me?

Appleton, WI(Zone 5a)

I present myself in many forms to perform my deeds - woman,dog , piece of pizza - whatever it takes.

Southern, CT(Zone 6a)

The shaman gardener!
You were cute!

Fairfield County, CT(Zone 6b)

bigcityal - you paid how much for the Japanese Maple? They grow all over my back yard and I pull them out before they take over. I'd pot one up for you for half the price you paid. :) Dave47 - you aren't taking that sleeping medication that causes people to drive cars and eat in their sleep - are you? You know that sleep shopping can cause major credit problems.

Southern, CT(Zone 6a)

No Yankeecat. I thought I was OK. Al scared me though.

Appleton, WI(Zone 5a)

Yank - no I bought a cheap one, but I do get a kick out of the 're'landscaping shows that always add the most expensive one they can find to their project.

Long Island, NY(Zone 6b)

she was cute??? must have been me!

Long Island, NY(Zone 6b)

and if you decide to do any shopping in your sleep - feel free to buy lot's of stuff for us!!

Southern, CT(Zone 6a)

Will do dear.
Our daughter's Commencement is tomorrow morning. We will be parents of a high school kid.

Long Island, NY(Zone 6b)

Southern, CT(Zone 6a)

Long Island, NY(Zone 6b)

How much does clear thinking cost??

Appleton, WI(Zone 5a)

If you are truly thinking clear there is no cost.

Long Island, NY(Zone 6b)

darn!

Ronkonkoma, NY(Zone 6b)

How am I supposed to know if its a reasonable price? I can't think clearly!!!

Long Island, NY(Zone 6b)

Well, I see they have space to rent - is that brain space?

Appleton, WI(Zone 5a)

Gram - I think I found a house for you not too far from me. How do you feel about gravel?

Long Island, NY(Zone 6b)

Travel for gravel?

Appleton, WI(Zone 5a)

This is the nice one around here. There is a larger one that is 2" Mississippi pebble - yikes.
The weeping cherry growing on the ground always bugs me when I drive by this one.

Long Island, NY(Zone 6b)

Why don't you just adopt that garden just like you do your neighbors?

Windham, NY(Zone 4b)

OH MY GOD....that is horrible. it looks like a gas station. what were they thinking. i have never seen anything like that in my life. do people do that a lot by you? guess i'm lucky to live in the country.... up here in the sticks we use gravel for driveways and thats about it.

Appleton, WI(Zone 5a)

Well I buzzed by the disputed zone for a driveby photo

this one is 7 or 8 years old and weedy now.

Who lives in a home like that???? Thoughts come to mind, terrorists, relatives of the Munsters, zombies...

Appleton, WI(Zone 5a)

I was thinking lazy nonconformists ?


once I'm ready for a divorce I'll bring that up with the Mrs. "honey - no more mowing or watering the lawn - just think of all the free time I'll have"

Long Island, NY(Zone 6b)

and how much trouble you'll have time to get into!!!

Appleton, WI(Zone 5a)

No - I would spend that time complaining about my neighbors and the government.

Long Island, NY(Zone 6b)

HMM..would we see your picture in the paper or perhaps posted in the Post Office???

Appleton, WI(Zone 5a)

Are you saying people with gravel lawns are felons?

Long Island, NY(Zone 6b)

I never said that...lot's of people have their pictures posted...people running for office

Windham, NY(Zone 4b)

i am barefoot in my yard from may to september. that gravel would kill me. not to mention all of the kids playing in my yard. imagine sliding into home plate on that. i would need to buy stock in band-aids.

Long Island, NY(Zone 6b)

and a bigger homeowner's policy for personal injury!

Appleton, WI(Zone 5a)

Southern, CT(Zone 6a)

Very funny. The Onion strikes again.

Wheatfield, NY(Zone 6a)

Mystic, CT(Zone 6b)

That was hysterical.

I thought I was the only New Englander reading the Onion. I went to school at UW.

Southern, CT(Zone 6a)

I dug way back to find this thread! I wanted to share some good personal news. Friday, I received my state association's career achievement award. I feel very blessed.
My wife surprised me by bringing my 2 younger children. (My 7 year old thought it was great that he got out of math to attend) It's a good life.
