Thank You everyone for the Birthday Wishes. I want you to know you are all winners in my book. Carol, and Suzie pick which candle you each would want. There is a whole month to play games and I hope to see the two of you playing again.

Jeanne and Nancy, your stitching went in the mail this morning.

All plants including IOU's will go out when I'm off this long stretch; I hope you guys don't mind. I don't think I will have the energy to dig this week. but I will send the candles out around WED.

TIME FOR BED, I hope I didn't miss anyone.

LIFE IS GOOD,

Annie

    Maryanne,

    klickitat, I'm employed in a house that houses 8 people with developmental disabilities. I work 74 hours from a Friday night to a Friday morning, then I am off till Monday, work 10 hours then off again till Friday night at 11p.m when my long stretch starts over again;I love the hours in the summer.

    I'm going to take a walk around the yard to see what all is in bloom, then I will be ready for bed.

    I hope everyone has a nice day, it sure is beautiful out.

    Annie... a long time ago, as a college student, I worked in a similar environment... I lived from Friday-Monday with folks diagnosed with mental illnesses. It was a relatively easy job until the house closed down. That was a sad time. Eventually, it led me to another position that helped others.

    Looks like sassy got one heck of a box!

    I'm going to take a nap... been working my butt off all day in the house!

    thanks for the well wishes, everyone. i had a great day. started out touring a garden/nursery, picked up some plants - like i really need more. then did some shopping and had a late lunch. then i took a nice, relaxing bike ride. what a gorgeous weather day we had as well.

    the evening was spent at a family dinner, which was quite tasty. got some great presents - including some "green" which i will be "trading in" at the iris farm either this or next weekend.

    my dryer died, so my son instead is getting me new appliances, getting rid of the old ones, rearranging pipes, etc. (washer now is really where dryer should be and vice versa) and will vent it and all that fun stuff. i nixed the patio because i'm reconsidering what i am doing in certain areas of the yard. i thought maybe i disappointed him, but he seemed fine with it. it really was an extra chore to take the washed clothes to the laundromat and wait for them to dry. can you believe 8 minutes for a quarter? wonder what the going rate is other places...anyone ever use a laundromat? i did a load of all the dog blankets in their gigantic washer and it cost me 29 quarters. wonder what it boils down to at home between electric/water, etc. maybe 29 quarters isn't all that bad.

    anyway, i had a wonderful day. ate my favorite cake - spice with cream cheese icing, spent time with family and had my first "grandmom" birthday LOL and what could be a better way of topping off the day/night? apolo and julianne won dancing with the stars - as they deserved to do!

    thanks again

    Red Creeping Phlox
    Yellow Everblooming Hybrid Tea Rose
    Philodendron
    Another house plant
    Variegated Iris
    Gerbera Daisy
    Angelina Sedum

    Klick, if I am forgetting something, I am sorry. I am so thankful to you for everything. Each plant is so unique and will be absolutely beautiful. All will be a wonderful reminder of you. Mary Ellen

    Hey gals, Happy May & sunshine!
    It's been warming up here (finally) and DH & I have been working in the yard like a couple of maniacs, but we managed to get new borders on all the flower beds in back, a full shady bed finished at front, a sunny bed completed at the side and another one in the works. And new planters on the deck and back porch too, hung, planted and going strong.
    I'll have to get some pics when I slow down long enough. It was almost barren around here, then almost overnite, I've got stuff coming up everywhere! My peonies already have buds and they are a foot tall - they seem to like the little cold snaps we still get.

    Susie, some of the lily of the valley is blooming already, and the irises are growing in the new sunny bed.
    Golly, if half the stuff I've planted this Spring does well, our place will look like a Zone 5 jungle! LOL! I hope, I hope!
    Just had a minute & wanted to tell you all HI!!! and I'm still kickin' - oh I have a new email dizzydaff @ gmail.com (just remove the spaces).
    Hope you are all having an excellent May!!

    Deb,
    I got your pkg. mailed. Confirmation # is 0306 2400 0001 9198 1899. This is the latest I've ever been with a pkg.! Well, I hope you think it was worth the wait : )

    Dizzy,
    Glad you are well and that things are popping up everywhere.
    Don't forget we have a trade to work out. Any time after the local swap at the beginning of June is good for me, so when you're ready let me know.

    Mellen,
    Hope the kids are treating you good. This time of year at school must be crazy.

    Maryanne,
    Happy to hear you had a great birthday. I haven't used a laundromat in years! I hated it when I did go except for when I had the apt. near a laundromat that had a bar next door, lol! That's great of your son to take care of all that he is. Oh which reminds me, Gary FINALLY fixed the hole in the wall from when the dog and him fell into it. He's been suddenly doing more stuff like that. I don't know what has gotten into him, but I like it : )

    Have a good night everyone,
    Remy

    Hello Everyone!

    I'm leaving to help finish up getting my sisters things sorted out. I will try to get on here when I can over the week-end

    If anyone needs help getting their boxes out I would be happy to help, just LMK.

    I hope everyone has a great week-end, but be sure to be safe in whatever you do.

    Sassy, did you get your prize package? I would hate if it got lost in the mail.

    Hi girls... I'm so sorry for not posting personals here... I've been so busy since adopting a new dog and the extra hours at work. There is so much more going on in my life that takes up time, too. But enough about the drama... :)

    Brittneysgran sent me a DC# via email... looks like my box is on its way! I can't wait to see what goodies await me!

    mellen... so happy you enjoyed your box! I'm always afraid to send un-named plants, but they are (at times) ok to mail out. Maybe the rose plant can make up for those? :) Hope they all survived the transport!

    Hi Amy, Just wanted to let you know the package arrived safely. Lots of fun and interesting goodies in there.
    there are bulbs for glads and canna. Some really interesting seeds. I'm anxious to try those and hope to get some started on Monday. I'm doing tons of tomatoes this year and hope to be able to pick some winners for the county fair. Maybe sun king will be the one.
    There was also a start of the marguerite sweet potatoe and a piece of Evening Star canna. Most all of my sweet potatoes died at the end of the winter so I'm glad to have that too. I really like the color of that.

    For in the house, there is a cute bird house shape pot waterer. That will be year round fun.
    Thanks Amy.Nice work on the package. I hope I get some pictures later this summer of the glads. They will be joining the others that are already in my garden.

    I just wanted to let you know your package arrived today safe and sound and WOW is all I can say. Thank you so much for a PACKED and I mean PACKED box:

    I rec.
    Dl Heron (rose colored)
    Geranium Splish Splash (huge kiss there!!!)
    Dl Jen Melon
    Astic Lily: Mt Duckling..
    Astic Lily : Dolly Madison (same here?)

    DL: bottom dollar baby
    Astic Lily: Grand Cru

    WOW thank you for sharing.. I am soaking them today and planting tomorrow if the weather holds up..

    Earthly~
    Your box went out Wed. as I found your addy before your email. Please let me know how things look... I am scared with the holiday.. if they don't look good let me know and we can get a refund and ship new..
    there is a theme in that box...

    Carol~
    When you get back online send me an email.. I am holding the bracelet for you and I will need your new addy and the size... I want to make sure this one fits.
    If any one else has rec. anything from me that doesn't fit.. I am not offended if you tell me! I will remake it for you smaller or larger you just have to let me know.. I tend to make things small for some reason.
    Today I rec. my order from garden crossings.. I finally got astrantia moulin rouge (I had been wanting this) as well as Ligularia Britt Marie Crawford. I was really impressed with the size as well as the color of the plant.. I am excited, but wondering where in the heck to put them.. Does anyone know how Ligularia holds up to slugs?
    I was considering putting them in my hosta bed for color and for fill as the summer goes on the slugs get the best of my hosta..

    Any suggestions will be appreciated.

    I received a wonderful box from Laura today which included goodies for me, my garden and the g-babe. My heart is touched!

    The massive plants i received were Iris Baby Blessed and Daylily Hush Little Baby. They are just perfect additions to my dedication bed and although the iris may not bloom until next year, I can't imagine I won't get blooms out of the daylily this year. IÂve already planted them up and they look fantastic. Every time they bloom, I'll smile and think of you!

    The baby received a beanie-baby teddy bear, two baby friendly books: Goodnight Moon and Baby ABC's, and there were three educational tapes - numbers, seasons and letters. I love the fact that you thought of her (again) and included things in the box.

    I also received a body scrubber, body butter and shower gel in the scent of vanilla pound cake. An angel doll and a little kit "Women of God Living in Grace" which includes a prayer card, key chain and mirror/compact. IÂve never seen anything like that.

    Laura made me a bracelet!!! It's a patriotic bracelet - red, white and blue stones and all the little charms are significant to America - the flag, USA, courage, etc. I am loving this and the best is that it fits just right! What a wonderful idea. You are just too creative.

    Lastly, the most gorgeous necklace/locket that I put on the minute I opened it. It is just too gorgeous for words. Thank you ever so much from the bottom of my heart, I love it.

    Laura, what a wonderful box you sent me. Everything so thought out and special.

    Big Hugs Lil Sis!

    Good Afternoon!

    I'm sorry that I've not checked in for a few days, but I've been busy ever since I've reached home from helping get DeDe's things sorted/given away.

    Sister Brenda had doctors appointments and then my great neice gave birth to a little girl. She weighed in at 8lbs 5 oz.

    I looked through the posts and it looks like everyone has received and sent. If I've missed someone and you have not recieved a package plmk.

    I want to take this time to thank Carol, Susie and everyone for letting me host this month; I really enjoyed it.

    When CEDARNEST said that she couldn't host for Dec. 2007, I said I would do that month.
    I haven't come up with a name for the swap yet, but I would like to do something where we fill a stocking for our pal so if anyone sees small garden related things (plant markers, pot decorations, etc.) and you know you want to participate, you may want to pick up things like that ahead of time because they may be hard to find late in the year. Of course, other garden related things, seed packets, ornaments, a gift certificate for a plant, a subscription to a gardening magazine, a potholder with a holly design, a gift card, or a little candy and other treats will be appropriate, too.
    Hope that works for everyone. I will work on trying to come up with a clever name for that month!

    Let me know!

    I wasn't sure whether to put this under May or June, but it is the May swap going to Carol. Carol, I mailed your package this morning. It has plants in it so I hope it makes it quickly all the way to the west coast. It's supposed to be 2 day priority and the confirmation number is:
    0479 7504 2890 0603 6857.
    (At least I hope that's it, I used the self-service!)

I love my box thankyou Jeanne, Earthly can you cover me a couple weeks more please, till I am out of these boxes. thankyou hugs carol

    carol, no problem! beth sent me that quilting bee hosta a few years ago, it's one of my favorites. did you take any roses at all or at least some cuttings? my heart's aching just thinking about leaving my flowers.

    happy unpacking, got ya covered!
