Wednesdays Roll Call

Berthold'S Garden Center 434 East Devon Ave EGV. a little south and east of ABMC. I do not shop there and do not know anything about them. They have been there for 20 plus years. Just west of ABMC on Biesterfield (about 2-3 miles) is a Home Depot and they have a nice garden center. In Blomingdale is a Platthill Nursery on Route 20 also known as Lake St just west of Blomingdale Rd. 222 W Lake St Bloomingdale 60108 for your GPS. It is my favorite with an awesome variety. I will warn you they are a little pricey but that comes with variety and great customer service.

Thanks Christine.

Hi Humpers,

It is deliciously warm today. I went out early to the gym and then high-tailed it home to do laundry and chores.

Last night was the last of our house group until fall and I am happy to have the summer free of  required reading. I have so enjoyed the ladies in this wonderful house group.

.Crystal, in regards to the guy you went out with; instead of thinking it is you that is lacking, perhaps it is him????? Dudes can also have hang-ups and be people pleasers. Maybe he just doesnt think he is good enough. Maybe he has hung ups and you are so pulled together he is afraid he isnt good enough. Maybe he is a control freak and can sense you are strong and he wouldnt be able to control you. Maybe, maybe, maybe. Keep fishin'...there are lots of fish in that big sea. BTW, some guys dont call for 2 weeks. They just do that because they are busy and they dont think......they are wired differently than us.

Lisa, I cannot believe it has already been 3 weeks since your revision. You seem like you are doing so well. Awesome my dear one.

Can chippies climb up wire netting. I have successfully kept the bunnies out of my clematis by wrapping green chicken wire around my trellis. I am wondering if I can use the same stuff to keep the chippies out of my earth boxes. Any advice on chippy issues. I could just kill those little monsters.

Have a blessed day dear friends,

Sharon

 

 

Crystal, you are basing your value on worth on other people. Have you heard that "other people's opinions of me are none of my business". Also, there is only ONE vote on you, YOURS. Don't give it away to a guy, to a boss or even a friend. It's YOURS only. The book I mentioned in the other post talks about making thin good and fat bad and that sets us up for all kinds of negativity.

Another thought Nothing "means" nothing. A tight glance doesn't "mean" someone dislikes you nor does a smile "mean" they like you. The smile could be gas, the glance could be a memory of grief. Don't make actions or behaviors of others "mean" something to you. "Mean" doesn't equal anything. Deciding to accept this as a belief system will save a lot of hassle.

 

Had a good day with friends yesterday discussing the book, Friendfluence. Very thought provoking. Today knit with my pals and took a nap. tomorrow I'm knitting with some other friends.

Have a good day,

Connie
