Can I come see?

My hanging basket adventure was a failure. Didn't find what I wanted at Home Depot and the ones they had (not geraniums) were close to twenty bucks for a basket. Didn't occur to me to buy the pots and smaller plants...duh! Instead, I wandered aimlessly to other places in search of what I wanted for not horribly expensive, and didn't find it.

So I bought a bitty charcoal grill instead. We'll see if I am able to get that going in anything approaching a timely fashion. Figure it'll get me through until I can afford something nice.

Here y'all are bein' all gardenly and domestic. I on the other hand hope to get back to the yard tomorrow. If I don't mow what grass I ~do~ have in the back soon, I'm gonna have to bale it.

Got a couple of small birds livin' in my ferns on thefrontporch.

In other news, I remembered tonight I hadn't filed my Virginia taxes (due tomorrow). Fortunately, I already had 'em done and just filed them online.

Out in a meetin' all day tomorrow. Not likely to be online.

In other, other news it looks as though that script error I kept getting might have been related to the firewall I was using. So I need to figger out somethin' new. Gonna take the tower to the computer service store that cleaned up thelaptop for the Mrs. Then we'll reinstall somethin' else. I think he suggests Norton.

Sure, come see! :~D

We looked at the color pots that were already made up too... They cost more, and you don't get to pick the colors. We decided on the wood pot and made our own hanger.

I found the big chain... we had put it in the truck.
