Ohhh, exciting a craft show this weekend! That sounds awesome. I love walking around things like that. You're right, you never know what you'll find.

We're suppose to have a lovely weekend here too and I am back to gardening. Not sure it will ever be done this year! Feels like it's a lot more work than other years.

We'll be heading out to a movie this weekend I think. Date night! Hubs said we're going to try the new VIP section of the theater. That should be fun.

Got to run!
Have a lovely weekend

I LOVE VIP seating We get to reserve seats and they are big and rock and are comfy and have places to put your stuff.

Have you seen Budapest Hotel? I could use a good chick flick if it rains

Sus- I have thistles in my pachasandra

[QUOTE Sus- I have thistles in my pachasandra[/QUOTE]
WHAT??!! I just finished planting the last of the 40 new pachysandra plants. On the first 20, I split most of them and got twice as many out of the pots. By the final 20, Bailey and I just wanted this done and over with. I had to kill off a good chunk of pachysandra last fall in order to get rid of this weed we're fighting.
The only possible chore I have left for spring is to divide my black eyed Susan's. Maybe I'd better wait until fall to do that, now....although the weather is still good for it this weekend.
I want to move my two peony in the fall. They are gorgeous and in a spot where I hardly ever get to see them. I'm fine tuning this year. I did plant 7 or so Astilbe plants. I love those things.
My calla lillies are coming up. I'm glad to see they survived the winter.
Enjoy your weekend gals!

Oh I want to see Budapest Hotel!!! Meant to go see it with a girlfriend but she couldn't go and then I think we've missed it at the theaters now. Will have to check some late showing theaters maybe.

I have to look up this thing "pachasandra". Pretty sure I don't have any, since I don't know what they are. But I don't want any thistles to go with them.

I spelled it wrong, my spell check doesn't work and I am always in hurry

I sure hope I dont have to kill all mine to get rid of the dang thistles. I will really be annoyed.

If you are done with your garden chores, will you come over and help with mine?

[Bailey's Mom]

What exactly are thistles, anyway? I thought those were the sticky, prickly things you got sometimes if you went for a walk in the woods. I didn't think it was actually a plant that grew somewhere....?????? How does one get rid of thistles?

I will come over and help you just as soon as my garden chores are done. Don't hold your breath!!! Actually I'm making pretty good progress on mine. One of these gorgeous days maybe I'll actually get into the hot tub to enjoy free time!

Sorry about California Chrome. That guys owner needs a zipper for his mouth. He was bad mouthing the Ky people when he was at the Preakness and yesterday he was crying foul after that race....saying it should only include horses that race in the prior two races. He may have a point, but I did not like that way he made it....and neither did his wife, from what I saw.

Got a bad sunburn on my neck today. I'm glad I don't have an appt with the dermatologist any time soon!!

Love,
Sus

Canadian thistles- and I thought all things Canada were good because of Sharlene They are a perennial weed that spreads. I pull them out they come back

last summer I had not much time to weed, between Zoe and my mom, especially running back and forth with mom constant falling, I think it just got into my pachysandra ha, spelled it right I think
and took over. I always thought dense ground cover crowded out weeds

yuck, it is too huge of a bed to kill, it flows around the whole front of my house

I was out there pulling again last night.

it is cold and crappy again, looks like rain. The weed people were to come tomorrow. If it is raining they will cancel.
