I am feeling a bit anxious over the great weather we are having. Anyone with fruit trees or flowering trees are going to run into some trouble if we have too much of this. I have to admit 75 degrees is wonderful for February in PA but seriously, not good for crop farmers. Never thought I would be wishing for cold weather, but I am.

peace

I know what you mean ube, it's kind of scary. Just the opposite for Wyoming though, so much freezing cold and snow we will have lots of trees that will die. Hate to think about the apple and apricot trees.

I woke up to the sound of frogs singing this morning. The earliest ever recorded at my house. March 9th is the regular day for the first spring frogs. They are so enjoyable to hear but there will be frozen eggs on the ponds in a day or two, sad for the little guys.

I've relapsed so won't be finishing the wall hanging this go around. Pits! Spent the morning at the walk-in clinic getting an X-ray and more meds.

As to the warm weather, peach trees are in bloom around here 2 - 3 weeks early and I found a huge grasshopper on my lettuce yesterday. About a month early. Pits, again.

I am there with you Belfrybat, I broke my wrist the beginning of the month and haven't been able to finish the WH. A definite for next month though. I am suppose to get my cast off hopefully towards the end of next week. Also, one of the reasons no one has been me around on the board much. Just too hard to type.

Take care every one. Heal well. Will miss your wonderful creations this go around. We'll have fun next time.

Aw, sorry to hear about everyone's troubles. Hope everyone gets better, heals up fast.

Ube - I hear ya. I'm in Ottawa and we are fast losing our snow. We had rain for three days straight. It feels like spring right now. NOT normal for where I live! We are usually in the -20s with a windchill of -30s ... very weird weather - I have to admit, I like it LOL but we need our deep freeze, and we haven't really had it.

I can guarantee you that Ottawa will get another dump of snow tho before spring officially arrives! We always do.

Looking forward to see who's name I have tomorrow morning!

I am anxious for the "naming" too. This winter has been a long wait.

Rhonda 02-28-2017 07:15 PM

There is still almost 3 hrs left to let me know you are ready to mail. if you are within an hour to two or so of being done you can let me know you will be ready in a short time. It you have more than a few things to do to finish tho it would be best to wait for the next one.

I have 7 swappers
