36. Buried in Netflix..but not as out of touch as you who have the plants...Your Work
Tue Jun 18, 2013, 08:42 PM
Jun 2013

but we have a few...and flowers and with this weather ..it's been "interesting."

The Basil is Thriving and that House Going Up across from is a "Site to Behold." The noise..the loss of habitat for our birds and such...and every day it will be NOISE thru the Summer...and neighbor's house is on Market next door...so much Power Washing and Restructuring NOISE going on there...and we have to ReDo our Roof and found that we have "Grey Pipe" and have to RotoRoot our whole House along with Roof...and the Storms come and go...and there were twigs and branches...and it goes on an on.

We are Lucky...we Ain't CA, Colorado or Oklahoma...yet. Remember the last time we went through "Blown Away....Blown Away"...Oklahoma Blown Away........Sometime in that Great Depression that's been receded into memory.

Whatever... WE CARRY ON... "All Creatures Great and Small" and a little "Early Inspector Poirot" and some old VHS STUFF Faves we Saved......and we deal with it...except for when I "Mouth Off" on DU with Indignation..But the Partner deals with his own stuff... Still we work through it and LOVE & TOGETHER after ALL THESE YEARS.....ALWAYS WINS... Just doing a "CODE POST" to you.

And yes...always love your Tomatoes!
