I am itChy because I need to shave. That's been the problem for the last few days. LOL.

Cleaned up the front, saw three types of bees on the flowers. Planted the holly berries. Sweated a lot. I am either target practice or designated human for the mosquitoes tonight. It was pleasant when I went out. Not sure what happened. I bought a round for the snails, but I haven't seen these beer traps working at all.

Scarlet, I'm not sure what my great grandfather did, nor when he came to the USA. I don't think he was naturalized I think he was born here, but that would be about close to the time that my family came to the states on that side of the family. However, the tomato was something he helped develop. I'll need to see if anyone, my mother, has any information on it. I just know that he helped develop it, the variety went unnamed and uncatalogued.

Amanda's post made me remember. I was planting the holly berry bushes and the dirt was awesome. I haven't conditioned it in any way. Must be the original elevation aka, no crap clay put on top of the loam. Bushes should love that.

Got a new battery for my diabetes meter. It's been whining for a couple weeks about low battery. Don't really think it'll make a difference on the number, but part of me is hoping.
