Good morning all!  Patti, I think you are being very optimistic about the weather!  We had several strong cells move through yesterday and overnight which left us with torrential downpours and lots of bangs and rumbles that resulted in several periods of power loss.  After resetting everything twice, I gave up and let Ron have the honors when he got up this morning!  I think we are done with the heavy stuff and it looks like we are socked in with a lot of heavy low clouds.  I don't think sunseahine is in our immediate future!

I am fighting the yearly invasion of little "sugar" ants, only instead of the kitchen, they are in the guest bathroom and bedroom!  I have the pc in the guest bedroom and am  taking full blame for the dratted things as I set a glass of tea on the desk and evidently opened up a the Ye Olde Ant Tea Shoppe!  Good heavens, there were a lot the little black busybodies dropping in for tea and crumpets!  I got my orange oil out, tho, and made quick work of creating a hostile environment and I've only seen one peeking around the corner waving his little antenna seeing if the coast was clear.   About two more days, before the colony gets rewired and they move on to a new area--hopefully next door!

I've certainly enjoyed peeking in at the pics that have been posted!  Kathy's crocus were so lovely and such a pretty spot of color!  Mine are long gone so it was nice to see the rest of you all getting caught up!  I have to wonder, George, where are you going to be putting all your seedlings?  And I am jealous of all those toms!  If I ever get healthy, I'll be giving all you GUYS a run for your money!  Ha!

Hope all are doing well!
