Good morning, the dogs got me up way too early again.

Tonka got a shower last night when DH got home. He rolled in something (I have my suspicions), and stunk to high heaven. Max was in the bathroom, pacing like a nervous father while Tonka was in the shower. It was pretty funny. . He doesn't like water OR bathes!

Work today, should be entertaining.

Bought five heirloom Tomato plants from a friend yesterday at a fund raiser. Nothing better than real tomatoes from the garden. Fargo Yellow Pear, Amish Paste, Kellogg's Breakfast, Pineapple and John Ciochetto. I can almost taste them now!

Have a great day everyone!

MWs, do you have a clear field of fire around your garden spot?
Fresh tomato's from the garden are the best!

Thanks, Berts.

'Pre Hump Day', that's good - gives me time to get ready. Wiggles if you see any 'Mortgage Lifter' heirlooms, give them a try. They are my all time favorite.

Mornin' all! Coffee smells great today!

I wish you bountiful harvests, MW. Critter tried growing some heirloom varieties a few years ago; I think we got one small Brandywine tomato before all of the vines collapsed and died. Apparently, we have every pest and disease known to tomatokind around here; I've learned to look for the alphabet soup after the name when considering what to plant.

Morning! We got rain yesterday as well and any snow melted, so there is just an inch of fresh overnight snow on the grass. Yeah!
Still flaking but melting again. No babies, no bears, pretty boring this AM....
DS# is off to the doc to get his stint removed and then he takes his friend to Wheelchair Rugby. He is the pit crew.
I liked it better when they called it Murder Ball but I guess that is not very PC friendly. Don't know....
Guess I will wander over and feed horses here in a bit.......

Hi BL, We have the same problem with the wondrous red fruit.
They get just about ready to ripen up and start dying right off.

I appreciate that.


I Have this program that does grammar and spelling check and each week it tells me what my percentages are.
I use a better vocabulary that 97% of the grammarly users, I have a more dynamic style than 93% of the grammerly users...
But I am at 18% for spelling and grammar.

I discovered that it is our forum names that are destroying my stats.
Every time I quote someone their name counts against me as well as my own.
Any of their mistakes count against me as well as my own.
However, our collective vocabulary and writing style is winging me up there.

But the most annoying thing about this grammar programe is that it does not work on capitalization.

 

[Mtn Margie]

Maybe you never capitalize incorrectly and so why bother keeping stats on that? I think you should just roll with that one.
It is a balmy 34 and fog, no precipitation at the moment. The lambs are loving it! They are just a couple of springs bouncing around the paddock.
