The prosecutor WAS HER ATTORNEY. it was the township vs me.. I suppose I could sue for fees but want to just put this all behind me. I hate fights & conflict

sigh (I am so bad)

Happy rose planting, Darks.

Hey, I went to that link and saw your drawings and also a couple of photos. You look just as I pictured you. I can see you as a vampire flying behind a terrified motorcyclist!!! LOL.

This is such wonderful news Dolly. I never knew the full story till now. I didn't want to ask and seem nosy. I'm so sorry for all the suffering and stress this neighbor has caused you these past months. Thank God, the right decision was made.

Well, I can certainly understand that. I hate conflicts too! I know exactly what you mean. I am going to say a little "thank you" prayer that everything came out as it did for you and the dogs. HUGS!

Y'all have fun. I am going to go and try to get something worthwhile accomplished today, before it gets too hot. I will be back.

Once you have software that does gifs, download gifs off the web and look at them frame by frame - it teaches you a ton just by looking.

I’m so glad that trial is over and you won. I can’t imagine how relieved you must feel!

Which is NOT to say that spending time with you all has not been worthwhile, it HAS.....let's just say I need to get some "stuff" done around here. ;-)

Thanks!
One in there is a portrait or a friend.

However, I haven’t updated the page in awhile because the scanner is “missing in moving”.
(I hate that!)
We’re still unpacking from moving in April!
Hopefully I gave you good inspiration, as opposed to the demented inspiration I usually give.

LOL, uh oh.

Got two roses in, it’s easier when the hole is already dug.
But we ran out of peatmoss.
*grr*

Don'cha hate it when that happens?

Heck, I just stick my roses in the ground. If they grow, great, if not, oh well. Got to be hardy to survive in my garden. LOL.

Some of these roses have some sentimental value, so we have to take precautions in this nasty clay crud we have here.

Oh, I see. These are transplants. That's a whole different thing. I can understand why you are taking a lot of care with them.

Also, I just take for granted that so many things grow well here in Central CA. I guess that is not the case in other locals.

Where we are was the alluvial shallows of a glacial pond once upon a time.
The leftover silt is littered with boulders, layers of clay, and sometimes ‘black dirt’.
(Onion country around the corner from me.)
Drainage is a bit of a trick, the clay isn’t pottery grade, but it doesn’t drain either.
Pretty darn close to useless, and you have to do horrible things to it to make it useful.

We have thirty two roses total.
Some we still have to move to this location from the old place.
*sigh*
Third shift makes life SO fun.

Sounds like a gardener’s nightmare (speaking of dreams, LOL). Good luck to you. That’s going to be spectacular with 32 roses blooming. I only have about 18, I think, and I am sure they would perform better if they were better cared for. It’s going up to 105 today. They are on their own. LOL.
