Ohhhhh, noooooooo! That picture reminds me of the sweet blue chow we had before Roscoe - my husband saw her one day running along the fence - playing with a skunk on the other side of the fence! :)

We started out buying 25 or so already grown from another nursery. Now, we plant about 250 bare root from JP every year and sell all or nearly all. Our JP rep told us our roses are in the top 10% of all his dealers and he has 6-8 southern states along the eastern seaboard.

This is a tough area for roses. Hot and humid. Not a good combo.

Such a cutie! The falling snow just wakes up all these snow graphics, doesn’t it! I forget to use it sometimes when it would be just the punch a graphic needs!

Wow 250! Would love to see all of them!

Before I moved from our last home, I had so many roses I couldn't keep count. I miss my old garden so much. I've planted quite a few since we moved here. Love all roses but particularly fond of HTs.

We have humid summers too. I faithfully spray. The deer are a bit of a problem. They like them as much as I do. ;)

Nice Holiday display....I always knew carrots were healthy and I will really be healthy when I dig into that carrot cake. It is one of my favorite cakes.

After I get some work done, I will come back to play, ya’ll!

I’m going to play it again this morning..I did a very thorough job with the mop, washed some sliding doors, did some more chores..and in between tried to cure my desktop of a Trojan virus..I never use it..but up popped the devil when I updated my scan..I remember getting rid of a Trojan right after I got the desktop..so I am hopeful.
I am working on it again today...If this doen’t work..I am unplugging it and waiting to read up on solutions.
My allergies are still very apparent in the mornings but I am no longer congested..and I feel so good compared to last week.

Billie, that deer is so lovely in that sorta smoky setting. They are so pretty. Its so ironic as my son just emailed me some albino deer. I will try to post them after while. Oh, crazy me, I was clicking again trying to get music on Do Re Mi! I click whether I see a music symbol or not.

Oh, goodie! I want to see the albino deer! Thanks, jaycee. I'm glad you like the opening pic today. She's such a pretty doe.

LOL at trying to 'listen' to Do Re Mi! I thought about linking a YouTube to it, but didn't find the perfect one - I only tried to listen to one of Julie Andrews' because it was less than 3 minutes, but it had too many other voices in it, too. Didn't like it. Others were longer and didn't want to wait for them (one reason, it's not my favorite song in the world! LOL)

Thanks! Hope it warms up for ya before long.

We really haven’t had much winter this year...and NO
precipitation since last October. It’s “crispy” dry and
we have red-flag warnings nearly every day for wild fires.
Ugh!

Of course! What else can one think of when "International Carrot Day" is mentioned as one of today's holidays? LOL

I need to get dressed (yes, still in jammies) and get some things done. Back later!

P.S.Yay! Stephanie is gone! We were right, Dita!

Yep, you were right. She wasn't right for him, and she knew there was no spark there, at least on his side. Didn't she leave with class though? No bitterness and whining about "what is wrong with me?, why didn't he love me?, he's going to be sorry he didn't pick me", yadda, yadda.

IMO, Naomi needs to go next. I think he knows she is not ready for instant family responsibilities.

Poor Jason. I just don't see how he is going to make it through the end of this show. He was so distraught over having to send Stephanie home. He is a very sensitive guy, and I am sure that remembering what it felt like being rejected by DeAnna makes it even more difficult for him.

Where is DeAnna, anyway? Maybe she's not coming back after all?

Thanks for opening the doors today with that beautiful deer graphic, Billie.
