Good morning, Celia. I'm up early too, only you are an hour behind me so you are up even earlier! I have clean -up to do in the yard, too. The weather here is
just beautiful--heading for a high in the 70's, hopefully, and sunshine. Yesterday was a perfect Spring-like day. I went to Wall-Mart and bought 60 petunias (10 of those 6-packs)--30 yellow and 30 purple. I'll set them out today.
I gotta go get my 2nd cup of coffee and a banana....have to pick my DGD up at 8:30 at her church. This is spring break week for our local kids. Her church youth group had a lock-in last night for the girls. She probably didn't get much sleep--LOL--but unfortunately she can't go home and sleep because she is helping this week a couple of ladies with their "Pony camp", teaching younger children how to ride. She is earning riding lessons by helping out at the camp.
Y'all have a good day. Be back later.
Mau
P.S. Pau used to have a motorcycle but he sold it several years ago, thank goodness! He said there were too many crazy motorists on the road these days!
Stop and visit, talk all you want. Pt. 20
Good morning, Mau. I had a boyfriend who had a motorcycle. (D had one once, too) He came home from a bar one time and said, " Did you know my bike will go 120mph in teh canyon?" WHAT!?!?!?!?! 120mph after going to the BAR!!!!!!! We broke up shortly after that.
LOL, Celia--you certainly didn't need a boyfriend like that!!

Nope. Nice and stable for me! ☺
My DH bought a little Suzuki motorcycle a couple years ago. He drove it just a few times and decided he didn't want to die. Now it's been sitting in our barn covered with dust for two years. What a waste of money. Men!
☺ They never seem to outgrow the bikes, do they?
I haven't outgrown them, just don't got one! LOL
Mau, Shaun says he concurs-there are still MANY idiots out there today and prob more!
Morning all!
Good morning all!! Janice I was so glad to see you posting. My birth mother is exactly as your mom was. Men were always chosen above my little brother and I. I have been blessed with another mom. She has passed away and I felt sorry for her because her choices were often really bad one. what matters now is that you are a good mom and you know your priorities. I want to see a picture of the new Tat please d-mail when you ahve them.
I have been so busy with family stuff there seems to be no time to keep up with all of the threads I am watching.
How is every one's gardens? Mine is going gangbusters right now.
Here is the latest picture of our kitty babies.
Marie, your Ammie is gorgeous!!!
Marie was just rubbing it in cause she knows I love Ammies, too! Σ§:oP
Did you get your flower IDed, Marie?
Oh no, she'd never do that! LOL Go ahead, I love the pics!
Marie, I just read your gopher story, you get a gun yet?!
No but I will soon!!
LOL I think I would if it were me, that was horrible what that little buger was doing to your plants!!!
I think that looks like a variety of Calif. poppy!
This is a constant in my life a plant will be fine one day and dead the next. I really need my dh to irrigate and I have to find this contraption we had that you poke it down in the tunnels and it leaves poison in there for them. They used to sell it at HD but they do not carry it any longer!!
You are correct Celia. My first plant to grow from seed!! I have several colors happening right now.
Okay. Need, want, must have!!!! LOL
If I get seed I will be happy to send you some.
Thanks, Marie!☺ It's light enough now I can work outside.

Been out working in the yard-pulling up Lamium! It is invasive here IMO!!!
I cut down some of the reed. Yuck!!! I attacked what I thought was a new clump but what did I discover? Tulips!!! I didn't plant 'em where I found 'em! Yea! Can't wait to see what color they are. Or even if they bloom. Do tulips bloom from seed the first year? Or maybe the bulb was underground and found that conditions were right?
COOL! Can't answer your question, though, sorry. That is why I was pulling the Lamium cause it was interfering with all the bulbs we planted last Fall.
Everything is waking up out there. It's so nice. Buds all over the place.
Wow I had to look that one up Tammy. Nice plant youhave tog et rid of. Congratulation on the Tulip find Celia. I just found on coming up that I do not remeber planting. I am sure it is a species of some sort as none of the others could survive here.
Isn't it a shame, Marie! It really is pretty, but when my Bulbs can't come through it, then its gotta go! LOL I didn't plant this, but it is everywhere!!! I have one in a pot that is pretty cool, but I am giving it to someone else that really likes them after pulling all this out! LOL
I'm just glad I looked closer before I cut! It looked like the reed when first coming up. Lamium is good in small quantities, huh, Tammy?
Sometime I wish Ilived in other climates. youa ll can grow some pretty cool stuff that does not stand a chance here.
Yup, in a pot it might be ok, but when its everywhere, NO! LOL
Marie, what is it you like that we have that you can't? If it is small enough you could put it in a fridge! :)
Yes. What is it you want? ☺
Tulips ,Forsythe (sp) cherry trees, Azeleas (sp), dogwoods,Acers,silenes,trilliums, iris fulva (this one might make it here) red buckeye,paw paw Columbines etc....
I might have some Columbine seeds left, Marie. :)
They only grow here as an annual. I would not even be able to try until fall and my luck with seeds is not very good.
