Mornin... I am beginning to wonder if this pain isnt kidney stones..... it put me down last night.

deb waiting for the tylenol to work.

Deb, sorry to hear you're having a problem. Do you have a check up with the doc coming up soon?

Sonic only makes one good thing imo...strawberry limeade.

Those are good! At least as far as I remember, back in the olden days when I lived where there was a Sonic.

fine and dandy sean, had three ibuproten, when they started working went out to feed everyone, lost two chicks last night, hens i was keeping for stock, i must have a coon, going to set traps tonight and from now on. then i went to the garden and picked more peas to freeze, so yes quite dandy

Sorry for the loss Sharron, hope you catch the culprit before any more losses

Flowers are finally starting to look nice. Rain is so much better for them then having to water them myself. My peas are beautiful, can’t wait to eat them.

Not that hard ron.. When you buy a flat of plants (I get like 1/4 of a flat) they have info with them about sun,watering, preferred locations etc. In a container you have more control over keeping weeds out, and if you boost them UP. Less chance of deer eating them to the nubs.

Speaking of which, noticed today, all my hosta had flower stems with the flowers bitten off.

If thoughts could kill - well you know..............

Beautiful flowers, nicely displayed.

Rain is better for my plants as well.

I used Chicago water for the plants I was hybridizing and they didn't look great. I'd leave the water (uncovered) for a couple days hoping the chlorine would evaporate.

I live in the country so mine get well water, not the same as rain even though it comes from the same place.
