And yeah, I'll be careful. LOL

You knew exactly what I was going to say.

Don't wish for it trust me.

We've only had the relative, bindweed. It's nasty and I had to pull it for 3 years to kill it off. Digging wasn't an option. Bindweed is all over up here as an invasive.

I actually tried planting some morning glory the first year here because I like it. Couldn't keep it alive. They say not to plant honeysuckle either. I had, but it only does ok and does not thrive. Would probably die if not in a raised bed. Too much water in winter.

I had honey suckle in So California and it thrived there. Would love to have it here.

I got the MRI results and it's not great. I have a torn rotator cuff and a torn biceps tendon. I'm pretty sure that I've been living with the biceps tendon tear for years and it wasn't caused by the injury.

Follow up appointment is in one month. Oh well, that's life. I'm still able to shoot my bow and use a paintbrush, so it could be worse. LOL

Come get the Honey suckle all you want mine thrives and climbing roses have 4 or 5.

That's awful. Don't know how you do what you do!

Hey all still up and at it here.
Ripping morning glory from where ever it may try go.

My mom always grew morning glories and they were an annual plant and had to be replanted every year with seeds. Usually they reseeded themselves. But that was in Kansas. Maybe the roots survive winters in warmer growing zones.

Maybe it'll be that physical therapy will be enough, but surgery might be needed, which is usually arthroscopic. Tis what it is.

Good morning, Washington. I'm off to get my annual blood work done. My doctor was not happy that they haven't ordered one since the last time I was with her, two years ago. I'm on a lot of meds and they really should be monitored. I thought I was okay because the oncologist runs blood work every three months, but I guess that doesn't include all the tests she wants.

Blood work is always a challenge for me. I've been poked too much over the last 7 years and they can never find a vein anymore. Oh well, this too shall pass.

 

[pennyJo1960]

I have great veins in my hands.
A million years ago they killed the ones in my arms and legs.
sure will not allow the toes.
Good morning state folks 61 is nice to wake to.
