Morning all Monday is upon us again. Should be warm and sunny today but who knows :lol:

Busy busy busy today, tidying up greenhouse this a.m. and work this afty plus a bit of chasing around in between.

Nice garden Mrs Sic. Sic I hope you go back to the bees. It was one of the most fascinating things I've done for a while.

Have a good Monday chilli people - keep warm, cool, calm and smile lots :D
 
Good morning. Another Monday to start the week. Coffee group, errands, neighbor’s dog, then it’s my time to work in the garden. I’m digging up mums to clean out an area, they get too tall and unruly where they are right now. Time for a bit of a change. Maybe scatter wildflower seeds in that area?
Have a wonderful day. Take some time for yourself. S.M.I.L.E.
 
Morning,

Now where did the Monday go? It's Tuesday already. There's no stopping this week.

It's another work day and if there's some daylight left at the end of it, I'll quickly pop by the allotment. I have a few buckets of nettle fertilizer bubbling andnI need to stir it every now and then. If it stinks, it's ready. Love the stuff.

The nice weather that was promised for this week has vanished. Maybe spring will return again in 2024. 😄

Have a lovely day today people. Get dirt under your finger nails and feel alive.

Sister in law and her boyfriend will be here this afternoon and spending the night. I think we are going to the local brewery? They want to go out and food truck and live bands. Its tuesday in Dade City not Miami. Everyone thinks Florida is nothing but a party on the beach. Wife is doing some house work and its usually best if I get out of the way, Ill find something to do. Hopefully work truck is ready today? Have a great day and good morning.
 
Good morning. It's sunny and 46F, on its way to 65F. Cool start but should be a nice day. Didn't get much done yesterday. Mom back in the hospital and we were over there quite a bit. Heading back this morning to try and catch Dr. doing rounds. You never see her otherwise. Hope everybody has a terrific Tuesday. Be safe out there.
 
Good morning. It's 53F (12C) on its way to 79F (26C). It will be breezy and partly cloudy. Yesterday's wind was insane .... I just don't get it. No gentle breezes anymore. It either howls or there's no wind. Sic ..... you mean there's no 24/7 partying happening in Dade City :shocked: (note to self)? I've got customer meetings this morning so it looks like I might need to put in a 1/2 day on the paying job :rolleyes:! We'll see what the afternoon brings. Not sure what's on the menu this evening. I ate all of the leftovers yesterday. I think I heard the boss say fish tacos tonight (or it could be my imagination). Didn't get the grill gear assembled yesterday. I guess I'll do it today. That's about it .... be safe and be good.
 
Good morning. Warmer winds to weed by, but beware of next week’s cold low temps. I’m getting impatient, but know the above warning from the weather gal. We have some shopping to do this AM, between taking care of the dog’s needs, then garden. Sic, Florida is ‘party city’ for sure, just show them the alligators.
Have a great day. Special prayers for Downriver’s mom. Stay healthy and safe.
 
Morning.

Downriver, Hope all is well with your mom.

Been busy getting Spring agendas in order. Weather is ridiculous. 70’s one day and 50’s another. Temps are supposed to drop to the teens for a few days. Not spring yet.

Started smoker early this morning. Been going for 4hrs another 5 or 6 hrs and should be close.

Have a good day and enjoy.

Morning all,

@Downriver I'm thinking of your family and your mum specifically. Hope she's getting the help she needs.

And then It's Wednesday. This week is on steroids or something else that makes it fly. I set my alarm half an hour early today to create some more time. And I need it just to spray ALL the leaves of ALL my pepper plants with my green soap and water concoction. The aphids are not winning this time. No sir. I'm in full battle mode.

The rest of the day I'm in a loving hippie mode, promise.

Dinner tonight will be the biggest burrito ever. (The teenage kid is making dinner, his words.)

Be safe, make love, not war.
 
Morning all, another sunny day out there and that NE wind has dropped. Blooming freezing right now but should warm up nicely.
These weather changes are playing havoc with my watering and feeding programme, still what can you do.
Haircut this a.m. and then mooching in the greenhouse and garden later.

@Downriver hoping your Mom makes a full and speedy recovery.

Singapore noodles for later - my favourite.

Have a good hump day people keep warm, cool, dry, calm and smile :D
 
Good morning. Happy Hump Day! It's 66 (19C) on its way to 75 (24C) and still very windy. Bracing for big storms tonight and a much cooler WX pattern starting tomorrow. I have a couple of meetings this morning and then I'm off the rest of the day. Yesterday, I put together half of the new grilling gear .... I have the other half to do today. 1.5 weeks until hardening and 2.5 weeks to plant out (WX permitting). Our plants (mostly the tomatoes) are getting large and unruly. Crab boil tonight. Beverages later on. Be safe and be good.
 
Good morning. It's sunny and 39F, on its way to 78F. Should be a beautiful day. Thanks for the prayers and well wishes everybody. Mom seems to be stabilized, but they still haven't figured out what's going on. They're playing around with different meds, trying to find one that helps. Maybe today will be a better day. Still need to pot up the tomatoes. They're looking very unhappy. I filled the pots yesterday with potting mix. Maybe today is the day, lol. Hope everybody has a wonderful Wednesday. Be safe out there.

EDIT: Forgot to say Chuck, that butt looks kickin!

Goof morning,

@Downriver How's mum doing?

I've been up and ready for a few hours already. An early start of the day, I feel like I'm on a roll. 🤟 I'll keep it going till lunch time. Then the after dinner (lunch) dip will probably have me longing for a nap. Which is not a good idea, as I have a busy workday ahead.

My mind is busy with the idea of selling my excess plants during our national holiday on April 27th. Weather forecasts aren't to good though. Cold, cloudy and rainy still. So that might not be an option. I'll see. If not then, there will surely be other ways to part with these plants.

Enjoy your day, keep busy or do next to nothing and relax. 👋
