Good morning chicks,
Going to be a long day for me - double shift at the store. I did go to bed earlier last night but was restless and would have loved to have slept more this morning but oh well, stoke up on the coffee. I was outside planting yesterday and my cousin decided to stop by. We were looking at my garden. My chives are flowering and I was doing some reading and they said the chive flowers are edible. He said he cuts his off and I popped one in my mouth. It definitely tasted of chive. And long after I swallowed it, the flavor got more and more intense. Feels like I ate the entire patch of chives. Brushed my teeth three times last night and still woke up tasting chive. : Don't think I'll be eating any more flowers - just because you can doesn't mean that you should. I did get all but 1 load of towels done with laundry. Got more planting done but about 5pm the mosquitos got so bad I could not stand being outside any more. DH has a yard fogger he says works well but the thing is so chemical potent that I hate to breathe it. Talked to Mom yesterday, think we will bring her up for a visit next month. She would not enjoy the mosquitoes or cooler weather right now.
Mel - that's quite a long day for you if you had to swap out chairs. Guess they really had you zipping back and forth! As you say the extra cash will be nice. Don't tire yourself out too badly.
Annie - sorry they fired your buddy. Not sure turning on your computer is the most accurate mark of coming in - I guess with no official boss everyone is sort of monitoring themselves then? Sounds like they were looking to make up a reason to get rid of her. Besides losing a friend this will mean more work for everyone left - oh joy! Adorable shot of Lil Man on FB today.
Michelle - hope you got caught up with work and enjoyed your date. The dog walk fundraiser sounds like fun. Good cause, good exercise, good social opportunity - who could ask for more! Have a good time and raise lots of money.
Ceejay - I know what you mean - isn't it kind of sad to realize just how short we are??? I'm not even sure we can get away with being called "petite" any more. Glad you had a nice visit with the cousins.
Laura - good luck with the pruning. I was not good at that either - would take tiny snips at things whereas DH just took the cutters and whap. I think you have to have an eye for it. Be careful you don't get cut.
Shad - have a good sniff at the rose garden for all of us.
Time to hop in the shower and get some breakfast in me. Have a good Saturday everyone. Play hard!
