do you use a keyboard pad to rest your wrists on?

If you don't........buy one.

I found the only thing that helped mine was Ibuprophen 200 mg and I take 3 tablets at one time.

I think it rained for almost 2 hours...huge heavy downpour...unbelievable. Hey, at least the weeds will be easy to tackle this weekend.:wah:

sorry Ducks and Kathy, I am afraid more is coming your way. Just passed over me, Illinois, and is heading east.

Hey Sunshine and Ducky:-4

How are you...great I hope.

Oh Sunshine.....I am soooooooooooooooooo sick of this rain:yh_sick I wanted to plant some herbs and clean up my yard. I paid a lot of $ for my lawnman to cut back the weeds inbetween my pavers. Then I planned to spray with weed kille and pluck them out.

I can't even spray weed killer with all the rain:-5

I'm waiting for the rain to arrive tonight and will be awake to curse a lot. Some of the words that I plan to use are: $%%^&, *^&)$%#,and %%$$##@@. Those are only some of the nasty words that I'll use:mad:

AHhhhh Ducky, that's lovely. You'll have to bring over some tommos when you come. I'm just fed up with taking care of a lawn anymore....too much work, bugs and pollen. I put in pavers and stones.

I do miss having a lovely garden of tommos, peppers, corn, romaine lettuce and all sorts of spices.

Now, I just plant a wee garden of some of my fav spices and beg for tommos:wah:

Post by **Sunshine** » Thu May 14, 2009 11:12 pm

I planted some cherry tomatoes in a large container right on my patio. Nice to just go out and pick some for salads and such.

I grow the bigger ones along side one of my sheds. It gets alot of sun and I can pole them so that they stay off the ground. I would love to put in some snow peas too. I just may do that yet.

qsducks · Post by **qsducks** » Sat May 16, 2009 7:11 pm

I have to replace some of my tomatoes...the runts. My neighbor on the other hand is growing beets, cabbage, corn, lettuce. His tomatoes didn't work from seed so he needs to go get the plants.

HOpe that works out better. I had told him, you must start tomato seedlings inside at least 8 weeks before planting.

I am trying the beefsteak this year. Matter of fact, they are already planted but had to go out and cover them tonight as we have a frost warning in effect. I hope it doesn't hurt any of my new flowers.
