off-topic Good Mornin' Thread - For those that get up really early and post

Good morning. Sunny for the moment so will plant another few tomatoes at the CG, and help another with his first time planting. Rain in the PM, no complaints about free water.
Safe travels to TN, Sic. Thoughts and prayers for your brother and his family.
Have a wonderful day. Pay it forward, the cycle will come back to you in a big way.
 
Good morning. It's sunny and 48F, on its way to 71F. Another nice one. Got some things done in the garden yesterday. I'm hoping to get some more done today, but I fear the dreaded errands may be lurking, ha. We'll see how it goes. Hope everybody has a freaky good Friday. Be safe out there.
 
Good morning. It's 63F (17C) on its way to 82F (28C). No rain in the forecast for the holiday weekend. Washed the wife's car this morning and fueled it up. Also watering the garden. Not much else is going on today. Going to try to stay away from town and the lake (we have a large Corps of Engineers lake about 5 miles from us). Probably work on some fishing tackle later on. Grilling burgers this evening. Beverages this evening too. Be safe and be good.
 
Good morning.

Yeah I changed the avatar. Not as cool as Sic’s though. I require change every so often. I don’t like routines. Routines are for work. Lol

Planting a few plants. Got offer from local grow shop to sell my plants. They have customers that want them. Don’t know how much to sell them. I know they will want a commission. I see some Chile plants for $4 ea on Facebook and they sell out.
Is that to much to ask? $4?

Have great day. Going to try out riding the bicycle today. See how the knee does.
 
Good morning. It's sunny and 46F, on its way to 73F. Last nice day - cool front and rain the next 3. Progress continues in the garden. Hope to plant some today. I don't think $4 or $5 is too much. Big box is charging that for bells. Hope everybody has a super Saturday. Be safe out there.
 
Good morning. It's 54F (12C) on its way to 82F (28C) ..... another very nice day. When I've sold plants, I sold them for $3-4 each. It's tough to sell super-hots here though. There's not much demand for them. It's going to be a busy day. 1st off, my wife and her sisters are all meeting here (mid morning) and then driving up north to visit some relatives. Then they're all coming back down here for "girls night". I need to mow, trim, work on the hot tub chemicals and get the porch refrigerator stocked while they're out doing whatever it is that they do. This evening I'm going to hunker down in the "man cave" and just stay away. I've been told that we're having pizza tonight and will await instructions on whether I'm making the pizza or just picking it up. Beverages later on. Be safe and be good. S.M.I.L.E.
 
Good morning. Sun in the morning, rain later in the day. That seems to be the norm for a few weeks ahead. OCD, $5 would be a good price to sell your plants for. They’re more than that here. Another gardening swap this AM, and I’m bringing tomato plants and maybe a few packs of seeds. Don’t plan on taking anything home unless I see a flower or two. I still have to get tomatoes at home in the ground, and peppers are patiently waiting for plant out. Maybe this weekend.
Have a wonderful weekend. Kudo to all of you have finished planting your gardens. S.M.I.L.E.
 
Good morning.

Thank you all for the input on plant pricing. I appreciate it!

Sic, I acquired another plate. I’m sure I will find a lot more. If I don’t talk to you before you leave, have a safe trip.

Just drinking coffee and watering plants this morning. Enjoying the sunshine and song birds. Not going anywhere this holiday weekend. It’s freaking crazy out there right now. I’ll enjoy the solitude at home, thank you very much. Good amount of serenity here.

May your weekend be filled with fun and enjoyment.
 
Morning, morning, morning - yes I know, I'm late - been out while it's cool planting tomatoes and the first annums.
Going to be another hot hot hot day again today, only that NE keeping it reasonably cool.
Steak burritos on the bbq and beer planned for dinner today.
And that's all.
Have a good Sunday, keep calm, cool, pain-free and smile, you know you want to :D
 
Mowing Uncle Bens today. Its a 4 hour stop so That will open up tomorrow to be able to do the rest of monday and tuesdays route. Going to skip what I can also. Van is all ready besides Gracies crate which Sonya will get ready for me this afternoon. Homer, our big dog is staying home with Sonya. He and a 38 will keep her protected. I hate being 700 miles away from my wife and home but my "little girl" is tough and can take care of herself. I just try to make it where she doesnt have to. Didnt do blades yesterday but will this morning. Ive been having stomach pains for the last few days and I really dont need that at the moment but it just builds character,lol. Have a great day and good morning. Hash and eggs for breakfast :woohoo:

Good morning. It's 50F (10C) on its way to 85F (29C). Another beautiful day. No rain. The women are just waking up from their "girls night". I expect they'll clear out of here by 0900. I'll watch a bit of the Premier League Decision Day and then I need to get my hair cut after that. Heading up to the city this afternoon for the match. Nothing much else is going on today. No more planting for at least a couple of months .... LOL. Next week, back to landscape cleanup, mowing and watering. I might try to circle a good day on the calendar for lighting off the burn pile. It's getting massive and needs to be burned off. I expect it will burn for a couple of days. Sic .... I know I've got some plates out in the barn but I can't seem to find them. That's about it. Be safe, be blessed and be good.
 
Good morning. Mostly cloudy and 59F, on its way to 67F. The coolness has returned for a few days, with showers in the forecast. Managed to get the pole beans planted and about 25 peppers. I need to find one of those planting crews Harry talks about lol. Also smoked the turkey breast - delicious. Today I might try and beat the rain and plant some tomatoes, but might not win that race. Also have a few errands to run this afternoon. Smoked turkey sliders and a beverage or two for dinner. Hope everybody has a peaceful and restful Sunday. Be safe and have fun out there.
 
Good morning.

WSM time. Will be doing two Tri Tips. 125* internal, reverse sear. No holiday bbq tomorrow. I bbq and smoke weekly. I don’t need an excuse to do so. 😂

Sic, get some yogurt or some kind of probiotics in your gut. Also spearmint tea or some kind of mint slurry should help. Unless it’s a ulcer. But still. Have a safe trip. Everything will be fine in the home front. Like you said, living in the farm is tough for the new cats. After awhile they are tough as nails. Same goes for the human.

Need to transplant the hydro babies to soil. Need some more mycorrhizae. I have a new bag somewhere, but can’t find it. Damn ADHD! Hopefully th shop is open today. I don’t want to sit around a couple days doing nothing. Can’t stand sitting around. Had enough of that this last Winter. Yuck!!!

Have a wonderful day y’all!!!
 
Morning all - Monday is here and it's a public holiday - yay!
Weather still sunny and rather warm, NE wind is keeping it relatively cool.
Out in the garden first thing to get cukes and mange-tout planted, may get some peppers planted later.
I shall be spending the day doing garden-y things. Still got some potting-on to do.
Have a good Monday, keep cool, calm, pain-free and smile :D
 
Good morning. Memorial Day, remembering those who served our country in the military.
Busy day ahead, trying to get the gardens planted, today will be only a row or 2 of peppers, coffee group, and then hubby wants to go up the hill to the casinos. It will be a great lunch.
The weather has been dry for a couple of days, so I’ll need to water what’s planted.
Have a great Monday. Stay healthy. Prayers for healing and blessings for those people taking care of others.
 
Good morning. It's overcast and 60F, on its way to 70F. Had some showers overnight. Calling for rain, on and off, today. The rain held off and we got some things done in the garden yesterday. Finished planting peppers for the most part. A few stragglers that will be planted in pots most likely. Cleared the rows for tomatoes, but didn't get them planted. Also mulched a few pepper rows. Today there's those errands we've been putting off so we could work in the garden. Then home and chill. Safe travels Sic. Hope everybody has a marvelous Monday. Be safe and have fun out there.
 
Happy Memorial Day. Good morning. It's 70F (21C) on its way to 82F (28C). Another nice day. Not much going today. Got out some steaks to grill later on. Watering the garden this morning. Taking it easy today and enjoying the holiday. Be safe and be good.
