Happy Happy Happy weekend chickies! What a beautiful day! Did errands this morning: FINALLY got my hair cut and roots touched up (hooray!!!);had to buy a new UPS for my computer - yesterday's storms were the final straw in the frying of the old one!! While I was at it, I also got a new cordless optical mouse and keyboard... wow! this thing seems to be able to do anything - including butter a bagel!!! (LC bagel, of course!!!
)
Tomorrow for the 4th, we'll be going into NYC for Sam's 5th birthday party, which, fortunately for me, has been moved OUT of Central Park back to the park/playground near their apartment... gonna be a long day, but we probably won't stay in the city for the fireworks. Sheesh! I cannot believe that my grandson is 5 already - why, that must make me old?!?!?!?
Dottie, you were absolutely right about that storm clearing out the humidity and making for an absolutely gorgeous day and clear skies: perfect for a Mets/Yankees game!!! (got that Peachie?????
) I hope your DN's team did as well as the Mets did today
glad to see that your mil's doing ok.........
Ruth, I certainly hope that the work bee didn't sting you too badly today - remember to get REST!!! BTW, how's Harry and the girls?
Virginia Chickie, sounds like you've got a nice 4th planned-I hope you don't hit too much traffic! My dd1 went to UM and I remember the traffic around there!
About those beetles, my mom used to have rosebush hedges - and when the beetles would appear (I don't know if they are the same type of beetle - we used to call them "Japanese Beetles", we would plant garlic bulbs at the roots of the bushes...... bye bye beetles!!!!! I hope this helps with your problem. It's all I know - I'm not much of a gardener.
