Well, I'm back home again, and hope everyone is having a great day! The advantage of being on the road is I get to stop and look around at different nurseries, and shops.

Carol, your package will be in the mail to you tomorrow, I do hope you like what I've selected for you because I've found things for you in a 150 mile radius of me.LOL I will post the delivery confirmatin numbers when I close up the package/packages.

susie

Shirley my box arrived today.
ty so much for a wonderful box. DH will get out in the AM and plant the things

Sorry i have been MIA. I thought the knee situation was fixed. it was for a bit. Now its both knees. I cant hardly walk. i spend most of the time sitting with them straight out supported by a pillow. and to top it off my stupid self tried to remove some brush 2 weeks ago from at edge of our woods. There went the back too. Dr did blood work today. I get results in coulple days. he thinks i have an infection in my joints or the rheumatoid arthritis is majorly flaring up.
Ive even missed some good stuff on the Co-Op!

Will try to get my partners box out by Saturday Morning. DH can do it then.

My box had
red snowman candle
christmas ball ornament
christmas favorites cd ( i will enjoy this)
02 cool water misting fan.......this is nice ty! will make sure i keep it on my gardening wagon next time i can get out
reindeer note pad
singing stuffed penguin
bearded iris: cozy calico, amain, feedback, arkansas skies
daylily: spacecoast sonata, lion king, bradley bernard, christmas is, frankies fantasy, firestorm

Sue, don't think I included the name or photo, but I'll get it to you, they are like triple blossoms, very top heavy, take my word for it, plant them very deep, you'll think they won't come up, because they're so deep, they will! I've suffered for years with these popping up and falling into the dirt when they bloom, this past year they didn't. But had to wait till the foliage died back to go dig them up. Are those the biggest daffodil bulbs you've ever seen? LOL, they're MONSTERS!!!!!!!!!!

Hope you enjoy, I'll send you a pic and a name! Also, thats not all of your hostess gift, other will be sent with your daylily box which is going out tommorrow (Friday) so you should have it on Monday. (Ok, its NOT a daylily, but something you want! Wonder what? LOL, have fun wondering!!!!!!!!!!!!

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY! in July! LOL (Well when a girls got a bed ready something needs to sleep in it!!!) *giggles*

They are soaking they're little footies right now and will be packed up first thing! Hope you like! I was able to add some you asked for and some you didn't, but I think you'll be happy. After you get them, I'll send you pics of the blooms from my garden. (Don't want to spoil the surprise!) I have them tagged/named for you. I'm so excited! I hope you like them!

Hugs!
Sassy

Kimberly,
I'm sorry to here you are having such problems with your knees. I'm glad that your husband is being a sweetie and helping you : )

Annie,
It sounds like you had some fun being on the road! I like to stop at places too. Gary used to hate that. But he is getting better about it.

Carol,
I think Hummingbirddaisy got disneyed or decided to quit GW. For some reason, I feel she couldn't post anymore.

Have a good night everyone,
Remy

Kim, if I remember right, I'm your receiving partner. I'm telling you, please don't feel stressed to get a box out to me, actually, I will be really upset if you hurt yourself worring about a stupid box. You take care of yourself, when your knees are better send it when you can. Enough said! You just worry about taking care of yourself!

Girl my knees are going too, runs down a long line of women in my family, I dread it, but it almost on me, my Mom had a knee replacement and they had to go back in, now they're waiting for that one to heal so they can do the other knee. Not looking forward to it.

Feel better,
Sassy

SASSYD YES YOUR RIGHT THEY ARE VERY NICE BIG BULBS & THANKS for letting me know to plant them deep for i don't like droopy plants :))))

SueG I'm glad you liked everything, maybe your dd will let you borrow her eye gel mask, lol. I hate our little bee got broken, dang it, thought it was too cute. I'm so embarrassed, I realized less than an hour after that box shipped that I had forgotten your Christmas ornament, I'm so sorry. And I would have wrapped stuff in Christmas paper but, with moving last spring, it all went in the trash, for me at that time, it was easier than something else to take care of and move. I need one of those containers for wrapping paper. Anyway, hope you enjoy.

SueK, your box was shipped today full of plants! The daylilies are part of our trade, the other surprises are part of your hostess gift for this swap. Enjoy! Here's the UPS confirm # 1z6408w10357017920 Its not showing much right now, but I'm sure she sent it 2 day so you'll get in on Monday. When you receive the box, I'll send you pics from my garden so you can keep track, lol, you gotta tell me how you like my idea for 'plant labeling'. Hey when you're out of tags you make up what you have to that works!

Hope everyone has a good weekend, we're getting a little rain right now, god we need it so desperately. I'm praying it doesn't stop for a while. Then tommorrow, it'll be back to 100 and burning everything to death like usual.

Later girls........
Sassy

LADIES - MY BOX WILL BE A LITTLE LATER THAN EXPECTED GOING OUT THIS MONTH. MY UNCLE WAS KILLED ON HIS JOB SUDDENLY AND VIOLENTLY YESTERDAY MORNING.
