Well, this is the day that is named after me--April Fool's Day! I'm enjoying it by cleaning house. I had hoped to get the second planting of...
Purple, as usual, gave good advice. Honeysuckle, especially since Ed likes it so much, is a good choice. Jung's (www.jungseed.com) has two...
Happy Birthday! What a great time of year to have a birthday--everything is springing up and growing, and I hope you are, too!
Ronni, I think you are right. Boxwoods don't respond well to severe pruning. If perhaps a foot was removed from their height this spring, and then...
Netty, I read your post about today's plans, and immediately went back to bed! Girl, you have plenty of energy already--you are putting the rest...
Good heavens, I had no idea potatoes were so musical! Josh Selig has a very inventive mind. Thank you for the concert--I may play a couple of...
Mercy, there are more things in heaven and earth than I dreamt of! Thank you for explanation. Otherwise, I'd be awake at 2 a.m. wondering what a...
Don't you have anything in a larger denomination?

Tooty2 shoes, I sympathize. We had a friend who slowly descended into the twilight world. It was difficult to see, but we did laugh at some of her...
Fortress Julia Child was not breached by the Midnight Marauder last night! Everything was in place--no holes, no digging, and no damage. I don't...
Good caption for a great photo! Congratulations!

2ofus, I'll try moth balls--they worked around some tree seedlings I'd planted in the ground, but I'd forgotten about their efficacy. Thanks for...
Mines, yes! Why didn't I think of that? Mines are probably cheaper than cannon. Jerry, we lost at the Alamo, and I don't want to encourage...
Eileen, I think it might be a skunk. That is why I haven't sat on the patio with a rifle over my knees. I'm a terrible shot and if I just scared...
I was told I had "incipient arthritis" in one hip. I asked the doctor if the slight limp might be from stepping down from a ladder before the...
We planted our Julia Child rose, one of my favorites. Unfortunately, some of the local wildlife has taken a fancy to it, also. Yesterday morning...
Ronni, I'm a 17 year old living in a nearly 70 year old body. So many of my acquaintances, and family, just settled down to die as soon as they...
Hank, as a lady of "some years" I do appreciate each and every one of those random thoughts. It seems that all of my thoughts are random lately ....
