Well, it's starting. RFP responses coming in re our large building project. I have to review those and get recommendations to the committee as to which consultant to use. Then, it's turning the survey party and consultant loose. Wanting everything ready to go to bid by second week of January. Don't know how much spare time this old retired guy will have in the immediate future to continue keeping up with all the Games.
If weather turns and keeps me off the course, would have more time. Will be a day to day exercise. If you see me only playing a couple of the games... or go missing for a couple days... I WILL BE BACK!!!

Thanks 2old none of us like loosing money to these scammers ,I think this one went into a bank in Australia in fact the same bank I bank with so it’s hopeful that the transferred money will be recovered unlike someone using a credit card . I do hope they get a black mark on their name for life for being a scammer . I have a 21 year old embroidery sewing machine one evening I was ordering / paying for a design on line and paying with my credit card ..then the phone rang and it was the bank asking me not to proceed with the transaction as the site was questionable .. so big brother is out there watching what we do with credit cards .......so I saying that I hope they catch and punish this despicable person that’s scammed me by doing a bank transfer on line not using my credit card

We rarely use our credit card, and especially now . Christmas time and also lots of people out of work and are staying at home , and i bet we get at least 3 to 4 calls aday from scammers. one time just last week , this woman would call at least 5 times a day or more! finally after one week , she stopped calling, luckily we have an answering machine and also all phone calls show up on our tv too , so if the name is someone we do not know , we do not answer the phone..
Kate did that plant cost 3 hundred dollars?

This is a very similar plant to the one I got scammed on ...... This is one I have already .... but the other one had heaps more white on the foliage so a slightly different breed but same growing habit ,some call them “Swiss cheese plant “ cause of the holes in the foliage

Quicksilver, who used to post here a lot, grows prize winning violets. She has names for each and posts them on her FB page. Personally, my "green thumb" is black and blue!!! If I had to, I couldn't grow dandelions or bindweed!! Have spent so many dollars on our lawns, over the years, and they pale compared to neighbors. Had professionals come in a year ago, kill ours, and reseed it. Had the best looking lawn in years. Hired a professional firm to apply whatever is needed to keep it healthy. So far, so good. But... I'll probably find some way to kill it! Keep growing those plants! It is a gift possessed by few and envied by many!!!

I have about 30+ rare plants that can be delicate and a bit on the touchy side to get to grow ,cause they don’t like to much water . The plants are called begonias ..,some grow types of begonias that die away in the winter months but the ones I have dint ever die back summer or winter Oops photo to big I’ll try to resize ...

30+ plants woweee Dusty..when we lived in Maine i had so many flowers all over every where but we had the room to plant them ,and they were just common flowers and bushes ,, but since we moved here, i just am not into flowers any more , we do have 2 fig trees that we planted and give us plenty of figs , and 2 peach trees, that never did diddly squat. plus the neighbors dogs are here a lot too and tend to lay on the few flowers i have cept the rose bush, guess the thorns bothered the dogs from peeing or harming that pretty rose bush i have.. and just today my sister sent me a Amaryllis bulb for Christmas. so will be a month or two yet before it flowers. the photo did not work, Dusty.. try again,,

I love Amaryllis bulbs. What kind did you receive, Weezer?
I'd love more begonias than I have, as well, but it will be a long while till I can go to a Garden Center to select some.
