    Congratulations Frank, sorry to hear you will miss out on being with the friends you were making. Hope you will still see them once in a while between now and August.

    Good morning all. Partly sunny today and the wind is up again.
    Didn't do any gardening yesterday afterall. I looked around at the housework that had been neglected for too long and finally came to the conclusion that either
    1. the maid has this year off so I must take up the slack
    or
    2. I am the maid and 'time off' doesn't apply to me
    So I cleaned....boring!!

    Good morning y'all! 43F with a high of 58 expected and sun later on. I stopped by the co-op before work (it's so rad to have one that's open 24/7) to pick up some kitty food and was stopped dead in my tracks when I saw these beautiful glazed pots in the most amazing hue of pale green! They were on "sale" for $16-25 and (fortunately) I didn't have the cash on me. I'll have to avoid that place like the plague for weeks! :)

    Good Morning from the North Woods of Wisconsin. Wow, what a couple days in the 60s can do to the snow, is wonderful. I can see bare ground for the first time in 6 months. The piles are still high, where the plow pushed the snow, but, wow. 33F, (1 C) this morning. Clear skies, and bright sunshine again today. the wind that we experienced over the last few days, has let up, and there is just a breeze out there. It's beginning to look like the opening of fishing season will see a frozen lake, here. ours is usually one of the last to freeze, and one of the last to open again. There are lots of other lakes here about, I'm sure they will find room somewhere else.

    Good morning! It's cold here this morning. After a week in the 80's we are back to the 60's and windy. Yikes! It must be because I planted some outside plants yesterday. I haven't peeked out to see if they are still standing this morning. dooley

    Good morning y'all! 44F and whispy clouds right now, clear and 60F is the forecast today and it looks like that'll materialize soon. I'm hoping the prediction of snow on the Valley floor and along the coast this weekend is a mistake, but willing to live with it either way. :)

    Evening all. Quite a chill in the air today. Worked all day again so am exhausted and ready for me bed! Had a meeting at school this afternoon as Jessica is being bullied. Hopefully now between us and the school we can get this sorted. We aren't the sort of parents to take these things lying down.

    Couple of hours to do what I want in the morning before meeting a client at the trade nursery. What to do....allotment, garden or housework?

    Good morning all, we're starting out sunny again today. There's been frost during the night, and temps are still low. I got a new shipment of plants yesterday and will get them potted and ready today. Need to get more work done both inside and out too. Hope you all have a lovely Friday. :D

    Good early morning. Going to be cloudy and passing 70 degF. finally today. Thought I'd jump in early this morning before heading off to help with dog grooming. High hopes of getting alot of garden and yard work done this weekend. Enjoy your day.

    A very good morning to you all. Weather is hiding behind the clouds here, it may just show it's head before the day is out. Feels strange not to have my Swedish course to go to but it also means I can work more on the new GardenStew project :)

    Current temps: 9 deg C / 48 deg F

    Have a top Friday!

    Good Morning Stewers!
    Hey Frank, There's something to be said for "relaxing". LOL I hope you don't miss class tooooo much. cheesie grin.
    It's a bit overcast here today. We till the gardens tomorrow here at the treatment center. I hope it doesn't rain. They are calling for rain, but I'm holding out hope. The kids are so excited to get out and do some work. Yeah, right!!! LOL At least I am. Well, every one have a fabulous Friday and an awesome weekend!
    LET'S GET DIRTY!!!!!!

    Good Friday morning all. It is already 16°C with a wonderful high of 23°C expected. It is like we jumped right from winter into summer!
    I have a bit of house work to do and then I'll be heading outside to the gardens.
    Have a great day all :)
