I can relate to some of the comments above. Although all the plants do not have to be planted in my yard before I will buy more. If the price is right, it will come home with me. I have been known to be an enabler. You have been gardening too long...or have the addiction real bad when... You are sitting with friends for a barbeque and all you can think of is wanting to be home instead because of the work that needs to be done in your own yard whether it is the weeding of a certain flowerbed or planting of a perennial that you just bought. Or, you go to visit someone and in your mind you are planning your friend's landscaping for her and thinking of how nice it would look for a certain perennial you have at home to be also planted in your friend's yard. You go for a drive through town and you are looking at how others have taken care of their yards. You can't fully understand why some people just couldn't be bothered to even take care of the flowerbeds that are in the front of their house. When your DH takes over on planting and taking care of the vegetable garden because he realizes that the perennial beds are where you want to spend your time and because they are so large you need to spend your time in them. People come up to you or phone you and start asking your advice on perennials or plants that they are having a problem with. You would rather spend your summer vacation in your yard with your blooming flowers than sitting at a lakeside somewhere. You call up a friend and want to tell them all about the new perennial that is blooming for the first time. Brenda

It troubles me to see people fall, but it's certainly no surprise with their exaggerated way of walking and the dangerous shoes. Models probably fall more often than most people. Hilarious, not really!

I had a problem with a day care dog turning over the water bucket. Everyday they'd go all afternoon without water cause he'd turned it over. Me, being smarter than a Lab wired the bucket handle to the faucet. Tada! Came home, the backyard is flooding, the faucet is on full blast. How fun was that jerking that bucket around AND turning on the faucet? Ok yes, it was a blonde moment.

This rock makes a statement in the garden. the light makes you feel all warm inside.
