Bestofour I agree on the cut some of the lawn and leave some. That would drive me crazy too. And on my clematis being tied up, nope it is not. I tried to arrange the vines so that they will climb up and not bunch up at the ground so much, but they break soooo easily, that i just decided to leave as is. I think the top would have been bushier, if I had just left it alone.

Anyone reading this, if you suspect you have the flu, be careful. It put me in bed for about 10 days and I NEVER miss work, but I did this time. My DH, only stepped into the room and handed me fluids and/or soup. When he "visited" he sat on a chair on the other side of the room and even slept in the spare bedroom until i was past the contagious stage. We took no chances and he did not get it. Very blessed! It is a nasty thing to have, so just take it seriously.

Well, off my soap box. Everyone have a wonderful day. I will post some pics later of flowers... in fact I will probably drive you guys crazy...I am just so excited things are warmer and flowers are blooming! yay

Here is the petunia's i planted just the other day. I wanted them to look like they were in the bucket and the bucket fell over, so they spilled out...I saw that in a magazine and thought it was pretty. The magazine looked a little more like they had spilled, but i like them. The other pic is a close up of my clematis. There are so many more opened today too.

Great pics Mary, thanks for sharing.

My SIL called that she sold her home...she is a widow and her large house is too much for her. So apparently I will be helping her pack up this week. She has an 12 day closing...jeepers.

Good luck with the sale Junie.

What's the plans for this weekend Tina?

Pretty flowers mj. I like the bucket idea too.

Sunny 12 days! Gosh. She better get busy. Hope she has a place lined up to move to.

Junie good luck with the sale. Hope she makes lots of $$$.

I'm going to the doctor at 1:30 because I just can't get better. I just can't imagine he'll do anything but we shall see. My right ear is hurting a little bit so maybe amoxicillin at least.

Done for the day & supper is over as well. We did very well, or should I say, Rodney did very well today. but then when you sell huge BBQ grills and welders, that is easy to do.

me I may have made $40.00...perhaps....

going to jump in the tub and then chill...I hope everyone had a great day,

Congrats on the heifer Sunny. Can you post a picture of the calf. I like watching Dr. Pol and the other vet shows. I never realized so many cows and horses had such trouble giving birth.

Will $40.00 pay for ceramics June? Or a hair trim?

Got Amoxcillin at the doc. Can"t wait to feel better.

congrats on the heifer, Sunny,
No, it will not pay for ceramics, Sheri---I will probably just put it away for future reference.... I hope the antiibiotic helps, and soon too.

We will do the sale tomorrow & then perhaps let it go until the town yard sales & do it again.

watching TV now-- wavy

Thanks, Tina. No dishes here either---Rod cooked (Read we ordered food in) and while I offered to get out plates & such we opted to use the to go containers the food came in...so NO dishes for carol either.

sweet dreams I am headed to bed...night night.

Day 2 of the yard sale. Then tomorrow we will go down to babysit the kids, as Val's MIL will not be home this week.

I have to pack yet. I wish you all a great day.

Well sitting here and not one person is coming...2 area towns are having town yard sales this weekend...so I am guessing that is where they are.

Good news is we will be able to close up earlier than expected.

I hope you all are enjoying this beautiful day.

Junie hope the yard sale traffic picked up and everything got sold.

I feel some better today but I went to the farmers market which wore me out.

Anyone having special food or sweets for Cinco de Mayo?

well how nice---I posted from my tablet & guess what--it shows on my tablet but not here...

Bless you Sheri, but today we had 3 customers today & made exactly $5.00. My advice on yard sales is this.....DO NOT have them---and if you MUST have one---display only large ticket items so that it is much easier to clean up. THIS girl does not want to ever do another yard sale....ever..... uhuhh

No special foods here..... why

Junie you posted in the vegetable garden forum.

One of my sisters had a yard sale once and said never again.

I"m tired of doing nothing but doing something wears me out. I keep falling asleep.

Happy Monday from me as wrll...

The girls are taking a nap and Henry & Papas are outside. The girls would still be eating spaghetti with sauce if I had let them... But I thought 2 helpings with green beans was enough...

Washing clothes now...Golly 3 girls can sure make a pile of laundry, fast.

Man I can't imagine the laundry. Colt would eat spaghetti every meal including breakfast if his mother would let him. When he's here he does don't tell her. :)

Pretty calf and girl Sunny.

I took half a Benadryl for this cough since I'm allergic to codeine and slept from around 3:30 until just now. I hope I never have to take the hard stuff.
