DO YOU GARDEN? I am researching a book called "My Very First Garden" (about edible gardening... fruits, vegetables, herbs, etc.) and need your true stories! Do you have a good (or even bad!) memory about the first garden you ever did? Was it inside in pots, outside when you were a kid, or in a community garden? Did you harvest anything or did the rabbits get it all? Please submit your short but true story to vikkibooks at yahoo dot com by April 27 2010. Your submission implies your consent to use your story and the possibility of (minor) editing. Thanks!

9/23: Bits and Pieces

Weather:
Weird here in Denver.... so what's new?! We got up to 87 degrees yesterday! Supposed to be in the high 70's/low 80's until storms come through towards the end of the week. No matter - garden is dying (snif snif).

TV:
Last night was a flurry of channel-changing during commercials. Saw Cloris Leachman dance (and beg Len!) but missed Susan's until this morning on "The View". "Terminator" was great. And "Heroes" - what can I say - loved it!

MOAB (Mother of all Bailouts - from www.survivalblog.com ):
So many people (individuals, at least) are very against how this $70 billion bailout is structured. Corporations, of course, love it. It's going to cause even more problems if it goes through as presented.

Health:
Weslee's ingrown toenail is looking worse, so the doc gave him an antibiotic to take and severe instructions. May need surgery if not better in a week or 10 days.

Meanwhile, I'm to be fitted for a heart monitor on Thursday. These problems with Weslee and our software provider is increasing my level of stress, and my doc is concerned. Oh joy.

Dinner:
Ok ok ... Weslee has leftover turkey-dogs, Doug's fixed steaks we got on sale last week, Weslee picked tomatoes and strawberries from our garden for our salads, and they are calling for me to join them at the dinner table. Family time is important, so I'm signing off. Enjoy your day, and buy gold low!
