“...hired 2 guys for $150.00. It took them 6 hours to power wash my 1,800sf house, the porch and decks. It would have taken me six weeks.”

I just need the upper deck done - it is just black with crap on it. It needs to be sealed but I don't think son will be here long enough to do that in June. He will be back again in September so maybe with all that, he could manage to seal it in September.

So many things to do, so little time.

“So many things to do, so little time”. Well said Marcella. Story of my life. Have to continually remind myself that the garden police are not going to haul me off to jail if the garden isn’t perfect. Sheesh!

It has been a nice week here in middle Tennessee. Warmer and dry. Got the sweet potatoes (Beauregard) and the regular potatoes planted last weekend. Have never grown regular potatoes before. I need to be more like Marcella and read up on this :). I’ve heard covering/mulching is in order. Got the cantaloupe planted. Will plant the tomatoes this weekend. Am growing mortgage lifters and trying out “celebrity” for the first time. Plus a fair amount of faithful Roma’s. Got some peppers and sunflowers planted.
Hoping to have time to fuss with my roses. They need pruning, spraying, fertilizing and mulching. Plus 8 flats of impatiens sitting in trays next to the garage need planting.

Lord I need a clone. Or 6 weeks off work to get caught up. Oh well. It ain’t a perfect world

Sure enjoy hearing everyone’s gardening experiences. Happy gardening!!
