Yum, she can bake a cherry pie 😊 looks yum. Yes I was thinking about you putting all those plants into their sweet holes. I’ll bet it did take a while. It will be nice if you got a bit of rain 60% would be nice and welcoming their first day outside. Looks like you picked the perfect time to plant them. Lookin forward to seeing pics on your grow page. Have a good day and enjoy your sweets
 
morning everybody, i would say happy memorial, but it is not a happy day for our fallen or their families. i will say enjoy your family and set a extra place at the table.

had a man that lived in the same apartment building as me, he would set and drink everyday. would be plastered by evening. one day a lady asked him why he always set and got drunk by himself, his reply caught me off guard but i did understand. he said he was a vietnam vet and he never drank alone. i will tap my beer twice on the table later.

Mah most favorite fruit and pie in the whole world! Enjoy!

Cherry season is not here yet, but imports are starting to show up. Now that our Cherry tree is dying, I will be relying on what I can get until I can get another tree bearing......................

Killed me not to go out and do some much needed yardwork today. 86 degrees, but a great wind that made it feel cooler. Damn near outta asthma meds, and the pollen count couldn't get much higher, so I wussed out. Took a uber hot shower and blew a gallon of snot outta my head. Felt a lot better. Don't think the Old Hen woulda let me go out, even if'n I wanted to.

Only been in the hospital twice in my life. First was back in '99 when the lungs plugged up. The Pullet was nine years old, and she's never looked at me the same again. Went in with her thinking I was Superman, and came out very mortal.

No sense in scarring her and the wife over a little grass. It'll be there after I stockpile some wheeze meds. :)
 
Wow Hippie you got it bad. I actually didn't have hay fever that bad this yeat. Only had to take Allegra twice....both times I was trimming. Normally I did for a couple of weeks.

I got my grass cut. Time for a smoke. Tomorrow I will be on the lake at dawn....fish until 9 and come home and finish a dry trim. Out to dinner after.
 
Pute, mine usually isn't that bad either. It's a combo of the cold and uber high pollen counts that set it off. My damned left eye is half swollen shut, for Christ's sake. Feelin' a lot better than I was a couple of days ago, so I'm gonna quit whinnin' soon, honest. :)
I'll just be happy to be able to take a toke off the bubble pipe again.

Are you taking an antihistamin? That usually helps me along some when things get bad.
 
Not so far. Just inhaled steroids and a rescue inhaler when needed. I don't like taking drugs. I should say I don't like being dependent on drugs. If it's just allergies, I can deal with the itchy eyes and eardrums, but sometimes when it's a perfect storm of events, it'll trigger the asthma. Asthma is no fun. Took out a couple of good friends of mine, and both were under 40 when they went.

Asthma is no joke. I’ve had it all my life antihistamine no more a drug than that rescue inhaler. It will help you feel better so you can finally hit that bowl again. I don’t like meds either…
 
Last time I was in the hospital over the diverticulitis attack, it was going home day, and the nurse came in and said they were gonna cut me loose in the afternoon, but she had to do a med history on me and it would probably take four hours or so. She was back in a half hour. She said, "You don't take any meds regularly!" Nope. "How do you manage that?" I stay away from doctors. :) Gave me a smile and sent me on my happy way home.
By the end of this week, I'll be good to go again. Been driving this ole bod for 66 years, and it rarely surprises me too much.
