post update

well i got this beautiful imac, and there is an app for posting to blogger real easy, only i don't know how to use it yet. the test post was actually done by Wes last night as he was trying to figure out how to add images from iphoto.

as you can see no photo, so as of yet i do not know how to use the gadget. but i am learning!!

well tonight was the Military Ball and my girl was absolutely stunning in her full length evening gown, black satin with strappy black heals, she looked like a pretty princess!! though she walked out with her Twilight BAG!!! i told her to get a bag that matched and she said " mom this is the only black bag i have" whatever, i know that it is not true but what can you do, so hopefully tomorrow i can her with pictures and all!!

ok just a check up on the test post thingy, and i am still figuring out this mac!! but hey i was working in photoshop for 3 hours the other day and my computer never crashed!! oops i think that i need to go get my girl!! have a great evening!!

Flash Fiction Friday-sailing dreams

Every Friday write a short story, poem or prose,
then report it to the g-man!!

"To sail away on the open sea,
The joy's a new boat will bring to me

Oh how I thought I could never afford
This new truck and boat I can't wait to board

Oh how confused and sad this makes me
Tell me how the hell do I get this boat out to sea?!"



Here you go G-man!! No it is not my boat, I am landlocked!! I would be very upset if it was me though!! My garden is growing and hopefully this weekend we can get some pictures posted, I can catch up on everyone who has posted tonight and boy does that fresh coffee smell great!! My honey is out there roasting us some fresh coffee to drink and we just finished some late gardening, I have a nice insectary going. I am going to try some zucchini and cucumbers again this year i did not sterilize my soil so i am told the vine borers will be there. but I got a plan:
I will start my zucchini in pots and treat them like lettuce, i will plant two starts of those out there now and when they start to fruit i will get the fruit and when they show damage I will pull them roots and hopefully grubs and all bag it up and send it to the dump and plant my new starts after. I may be out of fruit for a week or two but I won't lose an entire seasons worth and i won't use insecticide, I also heard if you put a piece of foil under your squash it will confuse the moths and they won't lay their eggs there. This is my best shot and i am going to try it, I read that bees are disappearing all over the world and I honestly think 7 Dust should be banned from use, plus my children LOVE planting the garden and they would not be able to if I used that stuff. Ok so here is my thought for today: "Things turn out best for the people who make the best out of the way things turn out."--Art Linkletter
