Happy Birthday, AMP

I was thinking of my youngest granddaughter this morning and realized that her initials spell amp! She certainly is an energy charged girl, so that is most appropriate! Today is her 10th birthday....now if her first name had stared with an I, that would fit her too! Just kiddin' sweetie.
This past year she has growed so much....she's going to be a tall girl.........and a charmer with the big blue eyes and the blond hair. Okay, that's enough flattering. Happy Birthday, Ashley! We're gonna do something fun with you this weekend. Grandma isn't quite sure what it is yet, but you can bet we won't forget you on your special day!
Folks, I have a confession to make....if you recall a post about weeds several week ago, you'll know what I'm referring to. Well, I didn't quite learn my lesson....yesterday morning I had the urge to do some weeding in the front flower garden....and guess what? Later on in the house, Jose says to me "what happened to my tomato plant out there?" So I say, "What tomato plant, I didn't see any tomato plant out there! I don't know what you're talkin' about!" And wouldn't you know that the tomato plant he was referring to was a tomatia (mexican tomato) plant that was flourishing in that very flower bed that I weeded! Well, I just busted out laughing and vowed never to pull another "weed" the rest of the summer! Fortunately my husband is good natured and wasn't that upset............does anyone out there have a book for garden dummies!
Gotta go............time to get ready for work! Have a good day and hope for a dry weekend!!

It's a good thing that man of yours is so good natured. You know, if you just have a hankerin' to pull some weeds, I have a harvest of them over here at my house that you can pull until your heart is content.

You are a riot Ruth!

Darrell, did ya mean, Ashley? Amber is the older one. No thanks on the weedpullin' proposal.........I'm giving up...I'm suffering from weed paranoia as it is!! I don't think there's a mexican vegetable left around here!
