We received about 1" of rain this morning--and the temperature dropped to 65 degrees! Absolutely unheard-of in Texas in June :) . I managed to...
Watched it rain! I did get to the garden to pick squash and tomatoes before the rain came. So far we've had about 1/2" and the rain barrels are...
Donna, love your hollyhocks! Like Toni, I just can't get them going here so I'll enjoy yours as they grow and bloom.
Barb, you don't sound dumb at all--I just didn't explain very well. Sunburns, especially in children, can lead to skin cancers later in life....
I am of no help to you, Nightowl. I have dark skin naturally and have only had one sunburn in my life--my nose peeled! Rather than covering...
Ronni, no one likes to be told they have cancerous growths, even ones that are easily removed and are not life-threatening. You are being...
I told my husband that many Stewies thought his wine closet was fine. He answered that if anyone wants to build one, all you need is: a...
Captain, your cats think you set up the chairs and the light and invited the June bugs just for the cats' entertainment!

What fun! Enjoy every moment, and of course, we expect photos :) .
The happy hours you'll have sitting in that great porch glider! Happy Father's Day!
Jerry, fat rabbits are the sign of a good gardener! Our rabbits are on the lean side, but I attribute that to being chased by coyotes and feral cats.
Thank you all! It's hard to take a bad photo of a bluebird :-D .
We planted starts. We always just harvested a celery, never tried just a few stalks. Since it is a "core" vegetable (outer tougher stalks, inner...
What stunning pictures! We don't have orioles here, so the only way we can admire them is through your great photos--thank you!
This is not a joke--it is true. However, after my husband and I stopped rolling on the floor with laughter (and the cat came out from under the...
Weeds! I weed and weed, but they still get ahead of me. They are the only plants that don't get sickly and die in June, July, August, and most of...
I use the plastic ones, too, the same brand as yours, nightowl. Since I start my plants inside on shelving with lights, blowing lids isn't a...
Brooms? What are brooms, KK? Actually, there was a dead space in the laundry room--just a nook where I can keep my broom and dustpan, and...
