OK, so my best buddy seems to have found LOVE. I am excited for him. I have know him for 5 years now and I always thought the FOREVER bachelor. A friend of ours set him up on a date last week and now they have spent every day together for a week. WOW. He's told her he loves her and vice versa. HE's 46 and she is too. She is divorced with a 19 yr old daughter in college. He is crazy about her. I think its wonderful for him. I hope it turns out to be his dream relationship.

No plans for me this weekend. I am waiting on a yard guy to come and check my yard out and give me 6 months of regular lawn maintenance and maybe spruce up the place. I hate gardening!!!! No green thumb here.

Do you guys have any favorite flowers, plants or trees that are lovely blooming and enjoy seeing in your yard or a neighbors yard?

I have a couple dogwoods, a red maple, a japanese magnolia, a few day lillies....but want something besides azealas. I tend to like rich colors. Send me your suggestions. Many thanks and have a good weekend.
