I have lots of "messy" to share. <br /><br />Barefoot from Heaven - Snails/slugs can be a problem here with my hostas, especially if it's a wet summer. I never aim for perfect in the garden because that would leave me with nothing to do.<br /><br />Rosey Pollen - Love that name. The words GIANT HAIL scare me!<br /><br />Sue - Weeding is one of my favorite gardening activities. Gives me some uninterrupted thinking time.<br /><br />Sue - Do you mean Sue from urbanlittlehouse? She's terrific, isn't she? <br /><br />Lindalou - And Donna's little tomato plant said, "I think I can, I think I can." I'll be checking your blog for new photos of your tomatoes. <br /><br />gardenerprogress/Catherine - The bucket is bottomless and only about 1/4 of the bucket is used. I'm always quoting "they" because "they" seem to know everything. <br /><br />Brenda - I look at your blog often and never see a thing that looks beaten down, but that TX heat must be difficult to deal with in the summer. <br /><br />beth - You're right about the hosta being agreeable plants. They make up for all the disagreeable ones. <br /><br />Leslie - I always think about putting a hosta in a pot but never get around to it. Thanks for the reminder.donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06950476333013336671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1466749561761906021.post-72694226150506057682009-06-11T21:55:45.502-05:002009-06-11T21:55:45.502-05:00Those are lovely hostas!

I spent a lot of time getting weeds out of my garden yesterday, and had to leave some on the paths so they wouldn't take root in the compost pile.<br /><br />I had fun reading your other posts. You have a great sense of humor.
