Good morning, Mac...*HUGS*...letting someone else drive and a beautiful sunrise...nice. Have a great Tuesday.

[luvie]

I think I must have gotten here after the problems were resolved...I didn’t notice even a slow-down. Glad I missed it! :)

Good for you getting the kitchen done soon. That would be great, I’ll bet, having a new environment there. I would love to do that. Mine is really dated. REALLY dated! LOL!

Good Tuesday, beachy...((HUGS))...my thermometer says -0.0

All day yesterday was spent fielding calls about no one getting their checks. Calls into the post office...hope for an answer this morning.
They left our office on Thursday morning per usual. The post office did the same thing to us about 6 months ago...set the bucket down and didn't look in til all the frantic calls on Monday. Of course, we get the black eye and vitriol. *sigh*

May you get your internet fixed and have a good Tuesday.

Good morning/afternoon/evening/night Troops, wherever you are.

Thank you for doing your part to help keep all of us free and safe.

Thanks, unique, for the pastries.

Coffee is always on........

How about a donut?

Cookies?

Veggies?

Sandwich?

You working in your garden today or .... just working?

[ConorMacNessa]

*HUGS*

Hope you have a great day as well!

I am at work today, but rather be home in the garden. I will plant tomatoes, lettuce, carrots, peppers, shallots and other veggies. I may plant some beans a little later.

I just harvested the last of my fall / winter garden yesterday. I've got fresh carrots, turnips and shallots in the fridge. I let the regular onions in the ground since they are not quite big enough yet.

[luvie]

Sounds great! Hubby has started planting a few things...not
sure what they are. He is an “experimenter”, but I do notice
that he has a few bean poles in the back. Nothing much coming
up yet.

On the other hand, my tulips and daffodils are popping up nicely. :) Only one bloom so far, but I have hopes of many.
The irises don’t look great. The freeze killed a lot of the
leaves and they have to recover.

[Arrowhead1952]

We have a number of lilies in full bloom too, and the honey bees love all the new flowers.

[txradioguy]

Thanks ma!

Iron Soldiers!!!

[luvie]

Awesome! It’s still a bit early for our lilies, but I can see
little shoots coming up which tells me that at least some of
them survived the hard freezes we had!

Enjoy them and and bees! Do you keep bees or just like seeing
them at work?

[Arrowhead1952]

I wish I had a place to keep bees. We used to have over 50 hives when I was growing up on the farm. That was a lot of work, but the honey was great.

I know there has to be one or more honey bee trees in our neighborhood since we see so many. They also love the Japanese boxwood and Rosemary flowers.

[Kathy in Alaska]

My pleasure. Do you have snow where you are?

Good morning, Ma, EGC, & Luvy ((HUGS))

Sorry I'm late getting to ya,
I lucked out and the IT guy came by to do somethingamajiggy to my computer and I explained the problems I'd been having

He said he will come by tonight to do the next upgrade but that I was going to have to get a new computer - Hallelujah!

I asked him to tell the boss that I would need one cause I had been asking.
Going for the iMac this time.

[luvie]

Yay! A new ‘puter!! That should make your job easier! :)

[beachn4fun]

Fingers crossed it’ll make a huge difference, especially in the loading/speed feature.

LOL on your tag line.
