I function pretty well off of 6 hr., but no less than that!!!! at least not for more than two or three nights.

between 5 and 5:30
sweet dreams all
wow! Good night.
Sleep tight!
I could do okay with 6 hours, but only now and then. Too many nights like that and I'm getting too drowsy during the day.

I actually woke up 15 mins before the alarm... but refused to get up until it went off
I'm trying to get up at 5 or 6 but cant stay awake until 10 to do it.
Glad there are some early birds to keep me company.
yeah Sherrie is usually around as well
I'm usually up by 5:30-6, and go to bed around 10. I like to sleep too much.
Wow - cool find, Allison!
Karen, I've found rabbits eating my crocus flowers and the tips of the new shoots. Lilies too! I don't have deer so I'm not sure about them.
I'm not sure who started the poppy talk and all the beautiful pictures but a pack of poppy seeds fell into my cart yesterday at Lowe's. Not that I needed them, all but one of my perennial poppies from last year look nice and healthy with lots of new foliage. I wish I had the space for that Poppy pasture, Celeste. Please post pictures when they come up.

Its nice to know Christmas shop isnt just for the holidays. I'm there.
Did Pixie say something about the christmas shop?
I went and conqured with 6 new planters. The big ones 22"-18" $25.00 each blues are real clay light one is fiber and clay. Little ones $6-7 cant remember.
I was good and didn't say anything about the other things I saw! lol

Those are nice pots...did you see the ones with the sun face on them?

yes the sun face is on the small ones, i wanted a pair of the big ones and they only had one,those suckers are heavy.
They were heavy! I do love the sun face...it's so happy looking!
Nice find!
stopping to smell the flowers during the 5 min. of sun.
Looks spooked!
ears are down, not a good sign.
Great cat.
Her ears are flat by nature. But, since she not an outdoor cat, everything that she finds is a completely new and unknown "Thing".
Never seen that.
Love her color Mmmmmmmm could be you have a hair theme going there?lol
Me neither. Here's my Crash yesterday AM.
Thought y'all might like a small seedlings update, here. Everything is growing faster and faster. Everything has sprouted save the old seeds I found hidden in the basement.
Sprouted already includes: Broccoli Raab, Swiss Chard (two kinds), Cilantro (or, coriander, if you prefer) Brussel Sprouts, Garlic Chives, Leeks (Musselburgh Imp.), Sage, Acorn Squash, Spaghetti Squash, Winter Squash, Rhubarb, Kohlrabi, Parsley, Summer Savory, Marjoram, Mediterranean Oregano, Basil (5 kinds), Eggplant, Red Pepper, Hot Pepper, Tomatoes (5 kinds) .....
and, that's not even to mention the flower seedlings already sprouting.
I am going to cold frame in the veggie garden to get a head start on things, in the next week or two.
Here is a shot of the Basil Mammoth that is really going crazy. You can see it has really outpaced the Basil Aroma 2 (there is Aroma one showing bottom right), which was planted the same day.
Guess what's going to get cut and eaten with this evening's dinner!
Showoff!
Is the cat a Scottish foldear? My daughter used to have one.
Moi?!!? ne pas!!
Don't know how to say 'show off' in French--but!!!!!!!!!
YUMMY!!! Crappola I don't have Mammoth. Any reason you don't direct sow your parsley WNYwillie? Also curly or flat-leaf?
Deer damage on the arborvitae - which will be going.
First new JM to go in - Akita yatsubusa.
White hellebore.
Giant miscanthus.
While resting near the pond after working, this hawk flew overhead - four shots.
Next.
And.
And finally this. A Cooper's had landed on the tree near the bird feeder earlier. Is that what this is?
Victor Is your ground thawed enough to plant the 'yabadabadoo' JM already?!?!?!?
