Come on girl!!! Get spring fever!! *smack* LOL. It's almost April!! Housekeeper, good lord woman, I WISH I had a housekeeper. I run around here like a chicken with it's head cut off trying to keep up with everything.
have a drink..look through some flower catalogues!!

Snap out of it!!!! I just took my overweight dog for a walk and my neighbor thought I had a new dog. I had to say no he is just fat and lazy and doesn't get out much. But boy was it beatiful outside!!! I have pulled some of plants outside and pulled a few weeds while I was out also. It was so nice to be out in the sunshine. So do like Daniella said, make a nice toddy get some flower mags and go lounge out in the sun!!!

Mary

Mary, That is so cute ! A new dog.. LOL I can send Pedro to do those weeds... I feel like Kylie, and I have a nasty cold, barking like a dog, and both ears stopped up.. what fun....

I think I am finally get over the cold and stoped up ears. Starting to feel good for the first time in about 3 weeks. It took FOREVER to get over it. Please do send Pedro I could use all the help I can get. Is there a lawn care forum? That is one of the few things I should have learned from the ex but didn't. He probably laughs at all my weeds evertime he drops the kids off.

Mary

I hate that feeling. You'll kick it soon enough. You've been through a stressfull few weeks with helping your sister. Give yourself time to readjust. Screw it, the house won't collapse and the yard won't become a jungle if they are neglected for a short time. At least your housekeeper is just on vacation. I still haven't found a replacement. My house is scarey messy and I refuse to do housework. It doesn't help that I have three little slobs running around either. Poor DH it's all up to him. lol
Karyn

I need a housekeeper, lol. All I am willing to do without complaint is work on my flowers and I don't mind mowing grass. I leave it hoping hubby will do it and what he doesn't do I catch up on about once a week lately, lol. You will feel more like your old self again soon. Just relax. I am stressing over this trip coming up. As much as I want to see my mom everyone wants me to bring them something, flowers, books, a refridgerator, a bed. I wouldn't mind so much if I didn't have to work the rest of the week but I need to start packing a uhaul like right now.

Karyn`s right, Kylie you have been busy helping others
you just need to take a little time for yourself to
re-adjust, hang in there it will get better.

Karen

Kylie, I know the feeling, being a head case, right now. But really your blues are not Winter if the grass needs mowing, lol.

After the flue and up until now, I don't seem to have the energy to do much, other than just barely water my plants. That brighter, high sun is helping though...

Get out and sit in the sun! That should help. I'd mow your grass for you, but hey, its a bit of a trip down to your neck of the woods :)

Kylie, you feeling any better? Want to come to Louisiana with me and we'll hit the casino on the way home, lol? We will either win some money or really have something to be down about, being more broke, lol.

Well Girlfriend, it's time to get up off your %*#@ and get with the program. A little exercise will do you all the good. First start with working the elbow and wrist. Fix you a drink and lift it to your mouth. Fill the glass five or six times and after awhile you'll not feel anything. Well maybe in the morning, but it will help with the winter funk mood. Your head will probably be hurting in the morning however. LOL

Hey, I've got the Rain Funk, I'm sick of it and I can't work on my pond in the front yard until it stops raining and the thing has an opportunity to dry up. At the rater we're going that maybe next year.

Cheer Up Dear Friend, lifes too short to be in a funk. You have plenty to be happy about.

Love Ya Funky Sister,
Marian

Kylie

aw Kylie...come here ((((((((hugs)))))))
Glad to hear your perkin up!!

Daniella

Nothing like a surprise in the mail to perk you up, huh, lol. It always works for me. Hugs to you and your funky monkey, lol.

Glad you're perkin' up Kylie! I'm trying to shake that also.

So very, very busy, and when I sit down, I'm like "ewwww" - I'm SO TIRED of looking at WALLS. . .

The house is a train wreck - the laundry is now taller than the dog - and who told the spiders they could build a cob web there?

Then there's the multi family dwelling up in that far corner.. . . .

I did get a perk when Karyn told me to jump my moon flowers inside - so, put them down, with some giant red carnations and stuff for my dad. . .less than 10 days - they have PUSHED the huge plastic top off the tray. That was kinda kewel. . . .

For about 10 minutes. (grin) Ice storm today. . .

Glad you're kickin it Kylie!!

Annette, those babies are gonna grow fast! Be prepared, lol. I started my moons 2-27, they popped in 3 days, and are now a good 6-8" tall with 6-8 true leaves on each!
I was shocked, since they take forever to pop when outside. The ones I have had in a south window are doing just as well as the ones under lights, so if you wanna save room under lights, I suggest you just put them in a southern facing window.
Hopefully that ice storm will be over soon. DOn't go out unless you absolutely have to!
Daniella

I just came back from 10 days vacation at the coast, the weather was beautiful, except for 3 days of high winds. I usually clean all my flowerbeds, and cut back all my plants during this spring break. This year, for some reason I could not get with the program. I just wanted to stay in the house, and watch American Idol rewind. I did not even water my plants. The only thing I did that was of any substance, was I put bricks around my brugmansia bed, and finished spreading the dirt, that we bought in December. I must have the winter funk, I just did not have any energy. Barbra,

Not you too Barb!! Come on girl!! You need those exercises recommended for Kylie, lol!
Start curlin, lol.

Daniella

I wish I could take the week off while my daughter is here to help me get some things planted. Oh well we will have fun in the mornings before work and my stepson is coming in a couple of weeks to spend a week and John told him he would pay him to help me make my new bed in the front so I will quit whining, lol.

OKAY LADIES!! The doctor is in. lol. Kylie and Annette ... Did you forget? It's Margharita Time. Ya all are sufferin' from a lack of good ole Vit. C!! Call me, I've got the ice!! Gloria
PS You've got seedlings? I'm still waiting for Datura to pop, and those that have are STILL not putting out secondary leaves. What's with that, Dat? Gloria

Miss G.. I'll have mine on the rocks...PLEASE!!! LOL
I am starting to do a little better... We had frost last night so everything that had been moved out had to be moved back in...Took forever!!!! Hopefully this is the end of cold for us and I can get everything out of here..That will make me feel much better...
Kylie

Kylie: Deep down I know as soon as you catch a few of those Brug growing rays, you'll be back to your bushy-tailed self!!! ;0) Keep the faith ... Warm weather is on the way! Gloria

Got some brugs blooming in the green room - but I'm dying to take them out side and water and feed them full force.

Daniella - those moonflowers sure ARE popping, strange.

Ordered stuff the other day - and oops, Kuntry Kuttin's shipped my stuff, Fed X. Ok. . .crossing fingers, it's warm out there now, and supposed to be 50s.

Hopefully the stuff will get here. . .fast. Oh boy. . I sent a note to hang on to them, hopefully they'll be ok.

Plants and cuttings ordered.

Hey everyone, just an FYI - Karchesky said most Brugs are available now - 'cept the Monkias, those will be ready in the later spring. So anything you want, email them and they will get back to you with a price.
