@Yahooey ...Well, of course, when you have such a passion for gardening, only the best tools will do for your gardening wardrobe...such pretty colored handles too...It sounds like you enabled the one friend a little too much...lol...since she is blocked by the plants on her fire escape...She has become a prisoner of sorts by tomato plants...sounds like something from "The Twilight Zone"...lol

Has Zoe ever shown any interest  in your garden, like by digging into the dirt or biting into any of your plants ... It seems all of that dirt would entice her to use as a "you know what"...perish the thought...I can't even say it!  😂

@Yahooey 

love the pic of Snoopy on my mailbox

I went with pancake sis and her neighbor Tuesday..had swet/sour chicken&rice,green peppers,pineapple  and water chestnuts.

Walked Tuesday later afternoon with my neighbor and was humid.

Today.. it has rained over nightt...so this morning i wasn't moving good  and later went outside to mailbox...and humity and smells of cut grass,etc...bothered me.

Told pancake when 

she called i was staying home!

Good thing that i did as my mower guy was here around noon to mow....afterwards he said he was going to roofing job.....so good thing i was home to pay him! 

He usually mows late afternoon or early evening.

I ate leftovers from yesterday for my lunch...later i walked a bit with my neighbor...was yucky humid but had a breeze now and then.

How was your day?? what did you eat today??

lubs ya!

@MyShadowLove well... since you asked

zoe is not the sharpest pruner in my arsenal

she has a litterbox that is placed discreetly

she started using the yard - she always goes in the same part

it is a rocky sandy shady part that i dont plant anything in

she always goes there of which i'm fine with it

the cost of litter and the weight of litter and the disposal of clumps

i do pick up the poop

even when i'm away - sometimes my brother would let her out in the morning and let her out in the evening... she would wait

GREAT!

fast forward - we had snow and more snow

i shoveled the snow to her place...

i even fluff up the soil so it isnt compacted in

nope - turn tail and came back in

well.... she has her litterbox

nope... after using the yard for a long while

she did not go to her litterbox

she peed in the middle of the room

i thought it was a one time deal

she wouldnt go out to yard again

and pees in middle of room again with the other stuff

even after the snow melted - she wouldn't go in the yard

she would ask to go to the yard - she just wouldnt do her business

she stil peed in the middle of the room

i even showed her the litterbox - nope

i had to move the box to the middle of the room

even then it was in the box and sometimes not

grrrr....  months later.... now she is using the box correctly as well as go in the yard

she doesnt dig up my stuff bc i put up plastic forks or popsicle sticks next to small seedlings - she likes to plop on top of stuff - if it is large - she will leave it alone

aren't you glad u asked?

@geezerette 

Hi,how are you doing??

Are you getting the warm weather back again now??

Rain has been taken out of our forcast  that we thought we would have yesterday and today!

While walking yesterday we noticed a man taking something into nearby church....then i rememered "Saturday" is  our early town garage sales!

She wants to look for a small childs basketball hoop on stand for her grandson when he comes to visit them.

I just went outside and saw a lily plant growing  where none was planterd...but what color   will the flowers be??

I am hoping its yellow  as i think one i had  in the past closer to house was cut down by mower guy  by accident....will let you know later  as it doesn't have any flowers formed yet on plant.

On other side my house in front  by house is both tiger lilies  and pink/orange ones...neighbor across street from me has yellow ones!

  Also saw my purple stella de loro lilies  are up but no flowers yet on them yet. either. My yellow ones near street  are blooming !

Also last fall planted some tiny mum plants.  and they are really growing very nice..i didn;t think they would even grow ..lol

Do you have any flowers growing in your yard?

ubs ya!

I've been under the weather for a bit with a bad cold and then a sinus infection.  I'm starting to feel a little better though.  Thanks for asking.❤️

It's getting very hot here and today is finally dry.  Seems like every day we've had rain and storms.  Lots of damage in several areas.  I've got a load of shingles sitting in my driveway waiting for the roofers to get a dry period to replace my roof.  Expensive, but it needs it badly with all this bad weather we've been having.

It sounds like your flowers are coming along well.  You'll have something to keep watch on to see what colors your flowers will be when they start blooming.

Are you going to your town garage sale Saturday?  It must be fun to see all the different things.  Let us know if you come back home with something if you do go!

Lubs ya! 💕

Hi Y'all. Finished thank goodness. Stopped raining before we arrived at the hospital. When the lady came to get me and the wheel chair: she went past the desk to ask one lady to help. A man was sitting there. I told the lady: Look at me you will need all the extra help you can get. The man followed us. Mercy the table was was very narrow and on rolling wheels. They told me to get on the table and lay on my stomach( didn't have to change into hospital gown). I told them needed all the help. Everything really hurt while trying to get me on the table and turned me over on my stomach and I apologized. I was holding tight to the table. The doctor came in and explained every steps. The numbing shot didn't hurt . Then the doctor said that I would be getting two epidurals one each side of my spine and thought it would be just one.I will not lie. The shot on my left side really hurt and it felt like a electric shot going down the back of my left leg. He said that was the nerve and he stopped and put another numbing shot. Two nurses came over and one was rubbing my hands and the other rubbing my right shoulder. I thanked  them and the doctor said I was doing good.I thanked them for   all of the extra love and help. I was so embarrassed that I couldn't help more and crying. They will probably call me : Their most unforgettable character. Praying that this will help. Told to rest today, no shower, ice packs if needed and take Tylenol if needed.🤗❤❤❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

oh sweetie @SouthernBee 

you never need to apologize to anyone who has any sense of decency 

especially to those in the medical field - they know you are coming for an epidural

you wouldnt need one if you can do more - as turning over

but i'm sure they appreciated the words

i'm just glad it is over and they were kind to you

fingers crossed it will make you feel much better real soon
