Jim,
I do believe my snow is going to melt with warmer temps coming before another cool down. It seems to be the way winter has gone. No lasting snow cover.

Skits,
Laughing over the roaches and tomatoes. I've heard of that, placing it on the dirt. Pricking out should be easy peasy!

Pepper,
Beautiful warm sunshine coming thru my windows!

Gene,
I've seen that, about nematodes. It says what they eat, but nothing about how beneficial they might be. They aren't always good. But they sure are survivors.
I agree with a fridge taking in some cold outdoor air!
What? LOL! That college professor was something else!

Jeanne,
Beautiful paint job on the farmer stone. That's neat!
Loving your amaryllis!
LOL! I love him too! He's cute!
Happy Birthday to your hubby!

Thomas,
It's good to let him find out. He can Google his problems, but I would have given him some suggestions. But, that's me, and you have your way. I don't know his attitude, lol! Ah, gotcha! A little tough love needed. He does need some prodding.
I realized I left all my garden seeds on the side porch that is not heated and is not insulated, with only plastic covering the screens. I imagine I froze all of them...
Haha! Love the paper plate story! I've had moments like that. Brain block.

Ginny!
Gorgeous blooms!

Airing My Dirty Laundry

Just this once. On Facebook. For everyone to see. Except it isn't dirty anymore and it's not airing out. It's drying.

Now, I seem to be a highly organized person. I don't like to use the ''A'' word, so let's say I can be... picky.

I threw a load of clothes in the washer this morning and decided I was going to hang them out. I don't sort clothes. When it looks like it's a big enough load they all go in together.

They do go in the washer in a certain order and are evenly distributed, and when they come out of the washer they go in the basket with the same meticulous care. Towels on the bottom, socks and such on top.

When I get to my clothesline I hang everything the same way. Little to big. I started with my underwear. Yes! Here it is! The big reveal!

I hung three pair and noticed one wasn't facing the same way as the other two. I actually took the time to unpin it and turn it around so they matched. Badum-ching!

Sorry to disappoint you, but I did laugh at myself because I would do it again. I got a story out of it even if it is a clunker.

But hey, nothing else ever happens around here!
A small town has no secrets except itself
