Day 2 of my 60th year

Category: Random bulletins from my brain | Posted: Mon May 01, 2006 8:10 pm

Not a whole heck of a lot different than the last day of the 59th year.
Day 1 of the 60th year was spent bamboozling the 6 yr old grandson and hoping to watch the NASCAR race that was eventually rain delayed until today. I did make it to Home Depot for mulch, I really like the Scotsman brand shredded cedar mulch they carry and I went ahead and bought myself a Coreopsis.

Today was spent catching up on laundry...nothing new about that, I usually put it off until someone asks where their clean underwear is anyway.
I did get the new plant in the ground and put the mulch out on the new bed.

And I treated myself to a bowl of Neopolitan ice cream with dark chocolate syrup after lunch.

Do you do all of your garden shopping in Home Depot or is there any smaller centres around? I imagine they are pretty much the Walmart of home and garden though.

Can you bring some of that along to the party to ease our stomachs Toni?

I don't really like the plants at Home Depot but it is the only place that carries the mulch I prefer. So once in a while I do find a plant there while wandering around.

I absolutely refuse to shop at Walmart any more. Their prices are good but the quality of the products match the cheap price.

There are a few more small garden centers close by than there have been in recent years and the ones I have been to have good plants, just not a wide variety yet.
