I haven't been on for a while except to skim thru and see what is happening.... This is so sad...and oh so wrong to go this young.,,, RIP Shmoopie11! Thoughts and prayers to the family and friends.

I am so confused by these posts!! How can people argue over a dog with a lump on his leg...geesh!! Kiki...if it isn't bothering him, (pain) I would try and get him in as soon as possible...like Monday, or Tuesday...but keep an eye on it incase it gets bigger or starts to cause him pain, then I would say to get him seen as soon as possible!

I spent $800 to find out my boxer had the flu....Ran all kinds of tests and nothing showed up, 2 days later he was ok and the other 2 were sick...grrr, and no...I didn't take the other 2 to the vet!!!

Cute pups!! Love the sweaters too!!

Can I ask what is wrong with your pet? When you know in your heart that the animal is suffering....or will not get better and is in pain.. Please don't keep it alive just for you...many do, and it's not fair to the animal to suffer just to stay with you...and they do try to stay alive for their human...

Yea...that's what I read online....so hopefully if we ever get out of this stinkin' town, I will be able to lure bluebirds in!!

Yea...I have been reading up on Bluebirds for a while now...hoping to try something that will entice them into my yard...but I think living in town is my biggest problem!! Maybe someday I will be able to actually get a couple in my yard...

We have about 7 bird houses at the present time....was wondering how often they should be cleaned out? We haven't had any birds stay in them for the wintertime, that we know of, altho I saw a bird I hadn't seen before, go into one house a couple times the other day... I just cleaned out my bird feeders and filled them for the 1st time this fall....didn't see any birds hit at them today tho....I love to see the cardinals in the yard... Moved the feeders this year because the area we have had them in for the past few years became feeding grounds for moles that made the ground real spongy... Anyone else fill their feeders yet? Wish I could get the blue birds into the back yard....I think cardinals and blue birds are the best...besides hummingbirds in the summertime!!

I also have an urn with my oldest boxer Stogie inside....makes me feel better he is close by.....

So sorry for your loss candlemissy....

I can remember when I was small and my grandparents would go out and spray down the fruit trees with water early in the morning after a frost...does this work? I can't remember if it did....I was pretty young.....

That's what I told her too....put a small fence around the bottom of the plant.... Waiting on one of them to answer.....thanks!!

And the bunny won....it ate the clematis!! Now the question is, will the clematis come back? This is from a friend of mine.... Came back in from covering my flowers (frost?). Only to find that a damn rabbit took care of my clematis! Grrr! I should've listened to the cashier at WalMart when I bought it. She said her mom had the same trouble w/ the little pests! Do they grow back? Or should I say screw it and plant something else? The flowers & leaves are gone. Can any of you help??

But prefer bulb flowers so I don't have to plant every year... Need some suggestions on what grows well in the area so I can add color to my backyard.... I will try and get a picture tomorrow of my backyard area....I have a rock garden next to my deck and that is where I want to put the bulb flowers...there is also a small area by the fish pond that needs something.....but my butterfly bush towers over that one.... I already have hostas, daffodils, primrose and one other flower that comes up every year...along with a bleeding heart that looked awful last year when we bought it, but looks great this year... I would rather get rid of some rocks in the rock bed then to go without flowers.... Also if anyone is interested in hostas...I might have some to give away....and also what I believe is the rose of sharon bush (tree).....we have them coming up in places they shouldn't!! Just pm me here and I will see what I have....

Sorry to hear about your kitty.....He sure was a pretty kitty....

So sorry for you loss!! You will see him again someday....

My recipe I finally found was real close to this one, but the recipe called for 1/2 cup bisquick and 1/4 cup of oleo.....I found it before this was posted, so I used it...hubby said it was good!!

I am in desperate need of a custard pie...hubbys birthday and he doesn't want a cake..he wants a raspberry/blueberry custard pie...but my custard doesn't always come out very firm.....grrrr...

sure is!! am hoping mine will produce flowers next year.....looked really scraggly this year...

Thanks!! I think today looks like a good day to move the flowers to were we can appreciate the colors of the flowers.... I got the bleeding heart early this summer but it hasn't grown much where it is, that is why I thought I would move it to hopefully more sun... The iris's are down front and can't be seen by anyone, and I love iris's so I want them in the backyard where we spend most of our time.....

I have some plants I need to move around in my flower beds and rock garden.......can I safely do it now or when is the best time?? 1 is a bleeding heart, and also some iris's, and a couple butterfly bushes.....

the plant I have is a water plant for my pond and is for zone 8 I believe....will have to try and keep it alive inside I guess.....

Some days it feels that way....

Just wondering what zone we are in? I have an outside plant that will do ok outside if in the right zone..... I also have a portulaca (sp) that I am gonna bring in...will it survive the winter?? We have been able to keep the bogonias alive thru the winter, but haven't tried any other outside plants....

So sorry for both of your losses, Bridget and Polo..... :'(
