Cleveland Amory once said that only men could be curmudgeons. Fine. I've set out to be a curmudgeonette. I'm middle-aged, single, owned by a stubborn dog and so white bread all my clothes should say "Wonder." If it weren't for a few little quirks, I would be absolutely indistinguishable from other Midwestern females.

Still alive
Even though I haven't been around much. I'm ready for the holiday weekend--there are fifty-five fifty pound bags of mulch in my garage, three forty pound bags of topsoil, a flat of Dusty Miller, four tomato plants, two peppermint plants and four lamium waiting for planting. I've turned down my mother's request that I babysit my nephews this weekend, and I'm excited to get moving on the garden. =)

You need a ton and a half of mulch, one hundred and twenty pounds of topsoil as well as a flat of Dusty Miller (however much and what ever that is) for ten plants?
Isn't that a bit much?
;)
Nice to hear from you again, Jammies. *HUGS*
She tends to get a lot of it under her fingernails.

A flat Dusty Miller!!!! Did you run him over, again????
Rob, you've been here and seen the flowerbeds--you should know that's not an unreasonable amount of dirt and mulch.
Z, you forgot that I get some under my toenails, too. ;)
Mike, thanks for reminding me--I got some basil to keep Dusty Miller company and to clip bits off of.
What, only 4 tomato plants? How will you manage? (I think I may have spent too much time around Italians. JP's dad plants about 140 every year...)
happy gardening
Kindly keep your hands off of my bits.
