Farmgirl, you're such a ring tailed tooter that even a padded toom :tombstone:
wouldn't keep you contained
:dance1:

Well, after working so hard in this life, I'd better have a padded toom/tomb! If not, I'm coming back to haunt somebody! (Note the time of the post. My typing skills are lousy on a good day, but before getting enough coffee in me, they are even worse!)

Further, :wonderwoman:, at almost 13 posts daily, you win my nomination for Texas chat queen! :salute::bullhorn:

Hey, I was late getting to the party, so have to make up for lost time! Thanks for the fun comments!

Here is something everyone should enjoy. One of my water gardens has some nice lilies! I need to do some cleaning and work on the ponds, but not happening today!

And I really wasn't trying to create a sunrise photo "competition", just thought yesterday's sunrise was very pretty!

Lou; Your photo is a little too spooky.

I knew my photo wouldn't win any "award" :laughing: View from a motel balconey, just doesn't have that "bling".

Found out I too, likely have a faulty AC motor start capacitor at the house, so, will have to deal with that ASAP.:mur:

Well, I cannot tell you how pleased I am with PartsSelect.com and FedEx. I discovered yesterday morning that my problem with my side-by-side GE refrigerator was the defrost heater instead of the defrost sensor. I ordered the defrost heater and selected regular shipping because they said it normally took 1.8 days even though 5-8 is guaranteed. At 1:30 this afternoon, the FedEx truck rolled up with my part. I installed it into my refrigerator and now it's fixed. PartsSelect.com has all my appliance repair business from now on. The part for my garbage disposer from GE over 6 days ago still has not shown up, but PartsSelect.com has come through for me in grand style. Their prices aren't bad either. They are the same or cheaper than directly from GE. :thumbsup: They have a distribution warehouse in Oklahoma which makes it even better for me.

I went to Houston and Galveston on business a couple of times in the late 70s, but then just passed through once about 1990-91. Never did like that town and their traffic.

Bird, It hasn't changed much, just much bigger and more people, but I remember living in Sugerland in the late 70's and it was a "country drive" to town.

Jim, are they a general supplier, or just GE?, (haven't looked yet, but will) good to know about them if needed , thanks!

I dont recall if I posted it earlier in the spring, but the Decatur Lowes had the fruit trees 75% off so I bought ,pears, plums and apricots. Figured for $4.95, what the heck. They are all doing very well too:thumbsup: I bet you could still pick up some container trees still at any good nursery, like Womack ?? in Deleon.
