    Good Morning! It is 65 and overcast. There's a chance for rain and/or thunderstorms today. Gene is out raking old leaves so the neighbor can pick them up or mulch them. I finally got all the seeds from my seed pods and if it is still dry this afternoon I would like to plant a few barrels. I also need to plant my poppies in the wooden baskets. They are perennial so I won't have to plant every year. Wannabe

    Good aftermorning all at GardenStew. Our clocks went forward last Sunday so you can really feel the stretch in the day now. But when the weather stays like it does the day could go on for twice as long and I wouldn't mind :D

    Current weather: 12 deg C / 54 deg F
    Currently listening to: RTE Radio 1 Ireland

    Have a top Thursday!

    Good morning!

    66°, calm and cloudy but expecting stormy weather today. May have a chance to hit a few yard sales on the way home from taking youngest to school.

    Hubby put horizontal blinds in my office and they look fabulous!

    Looks like a day to clean house
    instead of work in the garden.

    Sigh.

    Good Morning/afternoon everyone -- New logo surprised me this morning -- it looks real good Frank -- new and fresh looking. Sunny and 61 here already. Going to about 86 today. No rain here yesterday, so no more chance for a while. Hope you all have a great day.

    Good morning to all from the wonderful North Woods of Wisconsin. Cloudy with the sun trying to get through. High in the low 50s today. Snow mostly gone, just remaining where it was piled up by the plows. People have stopped showing up out on the lake, must be thinning ice.

    Good Thursday morning all. Currently 4°C and sunny. Deer and birds everywhere this morning...sure feels like spring.
    I'm very sad this morning. An old friend lost her fight with cancer yesterday. I sure hope she is in a better place today.

    Good morning! Much better than yesterda. It's sunny and not windy and my knee is feeling much better. I slept better, too, even with a pillow wrapped around my leg. Off to have some tea. A bit of chair sitting is in order for today. Will work on my quilting project. Dooley

    Oh, Netty, I'm so sorry for your loss, :'(
    I know that you are holding your friend closely in your heart today.

    64°F/18°C and mostly cloudy, there's a cold front moving this way,
    rain is in the forecast, maybe even thunderstorms.
    It's comfortable out there for now, though,
    so I've been transplanting a few things into the beds,
    they'll enjoy the rain, it'll help to settle them in.

    Sounds like you're being good so far, Dooley,
    but remember that tendons and ligaments take longer to heal than torn muscle,
    give it plenty of time and don't get impatient.

    Morning all, drippy out today so no gardening. Should be some thunderstorms later today and tomorrow.

    Netty, so sorry to hear about your friend, I will be thinking of you today.

    Dooley prop yourself up in the recliner and rest that knee.

    Netty my condolances to you for the loss of your friend. I lost my best friend to cancer last summer and I still can't get used to her not being around to talk plants with. PM me if you need to chat.
