I've planted a couple more Irises. The iris I planted last year is already spreading. If I had looked, I wouldn't have bothered with companion plants.

I have portulaca,sunflower flash blend, and lobelia seeds ready for the peat pots. I usually don't bother with seed but I am in such a hurry for spring, or maybe it's the need to nurture something.

The iceland poppy, the knockout rose, the oriental poppy and the white bleeding heart are already growing about an 1/2 inch every 4 days or so. My climbing rose is slow and I do not know if my red agastache plant is going to reappear.

I have not purchased a tree yet. I might just get a Camilla or a tall rose bush.

That is all.

I am 20 followers away from the 1000 follower mark on Twitter. Follower 1000 that is not a spammy account gets a fine meal/audience with me and a porno. Both will be tailored to the winner.

Two degrees of swimming greatness... My kids' summer swim coach last year, son of Hebe's stroke coach just swam in the same event as Michael Phelps at the Grand prix being held in Ann Arbor right now. Phelps was #1, he was #55, but still.....

Also high school/summer coaches are not "fighting" over Hebe because that's not allowed, but let's just say I have received some interesting emails/had some interesting chats offering advice about how to dual-enrol/where she should swim in the summer (she is passionately addicted to our 20y neighborhood pool team)

Holy crap! I need to step away from my computer. I just bought 6 pairs of shoes.

Okay, one was a gift, but still .. .

and okay, half or more probably won't fit and I'll return them, but still . . . !

My "home tabs" are cellar, bbc, annarbor.com and weather.com. I recently added cnn.com to try and get a more national news source. I just replaced that with The Onion.

I'll just pick it up. Tie some tow rope to the front landing gear and pull it home with the bumper of my car.

What a bunch of crap.

It's ONLY the National Museum of the Air Force. You know WRIGHT PATTERSON? the WRIGHT BROTHERS, without whom y'all wouldn't be flapping around?

I am so disappointed. AND, they don't charge parking or admission. All this history is free free free. I guess when someone isn't making big bucks off it...
