we spent 3 hours today trying to get some glass up in the greenhouse Grumbling
the instructions that were provided were less than wonderful, and we ended up
getting nothing done except discovering that the glass on the ends of the house are
a little shorter than the glass on the sides. Angry a little heads up would have been nice.

Thanks Ursula!
I wrote a 'nasty gram' to the company, but my husband (not usually the diplomat)
made me delete most of it!

Do you remember before we all had to construct things ourselves? A nice man would offer to put the shelves together for you? Boy I miss that! Sad

Kathy, you'll have to wait for the extension..it's WAY to small for your collection Rolling on the floor laughing Rolling on the floor laughing Rolling on the floor laughing
I think I am going to get a tiny water heater for my watering needs. Lowes has a 3 gallon ( I think) ,wall mount unit
that might do the trick. I can just mount it under a bench and it won't take up too much room.

We took advantage of the (relatively ) warmer weather and started the big dig for the
power and water to the greenhouse. The trench has to be 18 inches deep. The part
nearest the big house had to go through a daffodil bed and next to a Vitex tree. Only
lost 2 daffodil bulbs Thumbs down Thumbs up
