grass

grass, the kind that is green and becomes a lawn, is growing in leaps and bounds with this rain and warmer weather. Hope the rains stops long enough to let the grass dry out so I can mow it before it's too tall for my electric mower and I'll have to hire a goat.

Everybody have a great week.

I did the same thing several years ago. It actually felt better once the nail did fall off. It took at least 9 months for the new nail to fully grow back.

15-20° Above Normal -

WOW! 15-20° above our normal of 75° for this time of the year. A/C already working. You can have the heat if you'd like, give me back my norms.

Hope everyone enjoyed the week end and the week so far. Get those flowers, etc. ordered for Mother's Day or you'll be in the Dawg House.

Enjoy the rest of the week and, please, take care of each other.
