My website's rebuilt (whew!). Didn't get around to the Taylor pictures. I'm sitting with a friend's mom today, it would be a good day to sort all those pictures.

[AngelDream 16]

[AngelDream 16]

it's the 1st of the month, so i took mom to the bank. and it's friday so i took her to get her hair done. after that i wrote out her bills and mailed them. probably start listening to some music now.

[nurktwin 2,143]

been fooling with puters, mine is fine, but i noticed that my B/U puter is not getting a strong signal, but it works fine. then the WD said she can't get on the net upstairs on her puter, so i checked network connection and it's not even listed!!! 4 neighbor connections come up, but not my home network, the signal is too weak. it sounds like my router might be going bad, so i unplugged it and waited a minute and plugged it back in. sure as shit her puter automatically signed into the net at full strength and is working for now. that means i have to get a new router and the cheapest place for a Linksys E3000 is amazon.com at $140. i checked best buy and it's $160 or 170 plus tax. at the last minute before ordering from amazon with no tax and free shipping and waiting 10-14 days to get it, i checked Staples and they have it for $160, minus a $20 instant coupon with free 1 day shipping, so that brings it down to $140, i do have to pay $9.95 tax, but that's ok, for $150, i'll have it tomorrow.

Time to go home and get ready for the work week. Sigh. I can't believe the weekend is over, but it sure was fun!!

[nurktwin 2,143]

i got a pack of 30 Italian Genovese Heirloom tomato seeds, so i just planted 12 of them to see how they will start on my window seat. if they fail, i still have 18 seeds to try again. the basil and parsley i planted earlier is doing good and i used some on the pork roast yesterday. i also planted some lemon-lime basil and it's now about 1 inch tall. i did plant about 5 yellow flat roma bush beans to see how fast they would come out here in the house and 3 popped up so far and i put them under a Gro-Bulb and in 3 days they are already 6-8 inches tall. i may plant a couple Sweet 100 Cherry tomato seeds later today.

[WildflowerNJ 136]

Just got back from Fred's appointment....all clear!! YAY!! Still too soon for me to start all my seeds in my greenhouse (so many new heirloom varities I have bought)..I wait till the end of this month. Now I am going out to repot my agapanthus.....

[nurktwin 2,143]

Beth, I'm starting some tomatoes now cuz they say start indoors 6-8 weeks before transplanting outside, which will bring us to the 1st week of June. it also gives me more time to replant more seeds if these don't sprout in 7-10 days.

[WildflowerNJ 136]

Nurk, I would always start my tomatoes at the end of March...but they never started taking off until May....so with the warm greenhouse and soil..I am planting mine out at the end of May...early June....we always have a bumper crop...for us, for friends and for the groundhogs in the back, I plant them the extras...

Just had lunch..not off to repotting.......

[nurktwin 2,143]

i try to start indoors and keep the pots at 70-80 degrees til they sprout and then i use Gro-Bulbs to provide light and heat, adjusting the height of the bulbs as the plants grow taller. i understand you can use 4 foot or 8 foot flourescence bulbs and fixtures over the plants too, but never tried it.

I need to get a few things for my trip to Fl. this week.

I already have laundry going.

Start packing.

Walk the puppies.

Making dinner for tomorrow night. It'll just be me tonight, I'll probably just have a salad or something. But I have a big pot of gravy on simmer right now with my homemade braciole and my meatballs for tomorrow night.

[emmie 2]

Nothing pressing that I need to take care of.

[AmyLou 5]

[Magnolia 171]

Got most errands done yesterday including mani/pedi.

I'm going to take a LONG walk today because I feel so much better,

then it will be time to start getting ready for a very special night -

one of my best friend's wedding!

[SingsInFrench 262]

I'm doing the wash, and planning what to wear on my trip.

This afternoon, I'll get a fresh haircut, and buy some small-sized toiletries.

[nurktwin 2,143]

just sitting here and thought i better DO something. so i'm making a batch of pizza sauce in case we want to have pizza's for snacks when my brothers family gets here Thursday. next up is call my brother, today is his birthday!!

[nurktwin 2,143]

i planted seeds for 1 dozen Lipari sweet frying peppers. wanted to start a dozen San Marzano plum tomato seeds and a dozen Inferno hot Hungarian peppers, but ran out of Jiffy peat replacement disks!!!! I'll have to buy more when i go out wednesday. it got a little stuffy in the house yesterday and today, so i went outside and removed the cover on the A/C and am giving it a test run for the summer.

[nurktwin 2,143]

i decided to start getting the grill ready for the new season. put the cover away and got the bottom half apart for cleaning. will do the grates and drip bars tomorrow and then clean up all the stainless steel.

Clean out my email. And I needn't read them first. A lot of them have got to go.

Order some more WEN

Try not to think about tomorrow too much.

Continue my positive outlook on life.

Hmmm . . .

Reschedule the chiropractor appointment I completely missed on Saturday. I never forget appointments, never mind miss them altogether. Very embarrassing, and obviously stress-related.

Clip all my nails

Shave the REST of my body (lol)

Make a deal with XM/Sirius for my car. The 3-month trial is over.

Call my best friend, Sandy, if she doesn't call me. She has a doctor's appointment today, and her thyroid has been a mess.

Finish a letter to my other friend, Tybie. I'm way overdue, so that alone could take hours, but I'll be up half the night, anyway.

[nurktwin 2,143]

I went out and bought the Easter ham, white and sweet potatoes and a few other things.

How funny, I know a Sandy whose thyroid has also been running riot - she's Australian.:confused:
