Snork.... Um Buff, I can barely find the garden for the weeds right now... and the tomatoes are only just about 8 inches tall... you don't want my garden... either one.

wondering why I had 3 years of perfect gardens and this year its all gone to heck

But the weeds are doing really well... that's something, isn't it?

My grandma told me last week "if you pull it out and it grows back you know its a weed." lol

If it's easy to pull out, it was a plant you wanted. The weeds fight to stay. Maybe that's the problem; We've bred the fight out of garden veggies?

Anyway, my Roma tomatoes are scarily awesome this year. I will be buried in the tasty little red guys in a few weeks. I will dehydrate a LOT of them, since my spaghetti sauce herbs wimped out on me. Then I can grow the herbs later and my sauce will (hopefully) be less runny as well

Opinions please:

I'm supposed to be getting a tattoo covered up on Saturday. Have been waiting for this for like, 3 years and finally found the perfect cover up. It's scheduled for the day after my bday, a little gift to myself.

Issues:

#1, DH seemed totally ok with it till this week, when he suddenly started ranting to anyone who will listen about how I'm going to let some greasy dude be "all over" me (the location of the tattoo requires no top, and the boulder holder to be unhooked)
#2 I might be getting laid off, but 90% most likely NOT, every hour the news looks better and better. And if I do get laid off I should save the money.


Conflict:

I really dont care a lot about DH's issues, I just dont appreciate it, since when I ask him to talk to me about it he wont.

I know the responsible thing to do is to wait, see how my job goes, blah, but DANG... I've been sos toked about this for the last month.... It's killing me to think I need to call him today and reschedule....


I hate being a grown up.

OK I guess it wasnt the need for opinions so much, since I already know the best choice to make, it was just a need to whine.

Can you find a reputable greasy babe to handle the cover up?

Sparkles it sucks to be an adult! Can you put the tattoo off until you know for sure you wont be laid off and maybe get a female tattooist? I had something done once and my DH went ballistic because a guy did it and not a female. Guys can be soooo insecure! Or maybe DH can be there with you so he can see the tattooist is a professional and not a creetin (sp).

Sparkles went on vacation right when all the weeds sprung this year. I've been home and I'm still having a hard time keeping up with the dastardly things.

We put up 350 bales of hay last night. I are tired.

Don't like the chick's work at that parlor... and I contacted every female artist in town and they were all really rude.

The dude is married, he's half the size of me, and he's really quiet... I don't see a problem. Its not half as bad as when I got the tattoo I'm covering up.... 18 years old and my high school art teacher was doing the tat....

Yeah, I think it might have to wait about 2 more weeks... but DARNIT!

You've planned for it, you've saved the money, you're excited about it. Get the tattoo. Your DH's insecurities are not your problem.

350!?! Off one cutting!?! HOLY CATS, DH thought we'd get 65 off this one cutting and it was 113, and I thought THAT was a lot.... and yes, the same thing happened to me... went on vacay right whent he weeds took off and just CANNOT get ahead of them despite the hour of weeding each night after work.
