CLOSED: DJ9'S WINTER ROBIN " IN FLIGHT " PT 6

Sand Springs (Tulsa), OK(Zone 7a)

My daughter had 2 growing up (1 at a time) They stayed in her room in an old 55 gal fish aquarium. lol She won grand champion with one at the 4-H fair and the other one something but I don't remember now what.

Grantsboro, NC(Zone 8b)

There was lots of Zinna seeds in box when I had it . Hope all is well and I still have pictures if I need to post what was in the box. And mesh and lots of small bags as I had my own so I did not take any of them.
Hope all is well and we are expecting snow again Thursday . I am still trying to get over the 7 inches week before last. And the 4 snows this year as we had not had measurable snow in over 12 years so this is way to much snow. Maybe the 2 moles in my yard will leave. The 2 windmills aren't helping.

Anita, the robin is on it's way to you!

Susie, I sent you dmail a little while ago with the confirmation number.

I really pushed all the air out of the packages once I was done with each one and everything fit in the robin with room to spare. There were no mesh seed sifters in it but there were the smaller bags. I didn't use any because DH brought me home boxes full of them. I noticed some people had zinnia seeds but not many. I just have to say what a wonderful time I had going through it all and am thrilled with the different seeds I have to plant this year!

Erin, I like Kesha even if he's a boy - what a cutie he is.
We raise New Zealands here. They are used for meat and sometimes fur(red, whitre, black) but mostly meat. These are good sized rabbits - the does weigh 12-14 pounds and the bucks weigh 9-11 pounds usually. When DS (the oldest) started in 4-H that's what he wanted to raise so we've had them for 11 years now and the youngest DS is the only one eligible due to age to be in 4-H and FFA now. We had 26-30 rabbits housed at one time and with all the babies one year we had 62 of them - thank heavens we didn't breed all the does or we would've had over 120 at least! We've had all three colors of NZ's at one point or another as well. I'm really active in the county 4-H here and love working with FFA kids. When the youngest is finally done in 3-4 years, I'll miss it more than the kids will!

Nineveh, NY(Zone 5a)

he's the sweetest little boy. He hops around the house tormenting the cats. lol. After a while he goes back out to his cage.

Hi Lavina, it's been a record breaker for us as well here in SW Ohio.

Happy birthday, gardenseeder!

Blue Ridge Mtns, VA(Zone 7a)

I'm really late checking in today and am sending you a special Happy Birthday wish, gardenseeder63. May all your blooms come true...lol

Thanks so much, Carolyn, for the Moonflower seeds you shared with me.

Do any of you have extra seeds of Sage, Rosemary, Thyme, Mint, or Oregano? Just a pinch will do. I'm trying to plan an Herb garden and would appreciate any varieties.

Now that I mentioned Herbs, who else has that old Beatles song Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme playing in your heads? I think Crit has me covered for Parsley :)

Sand Springs (Tulsa), OK(Zone 7a)

FOTV ..... I don't have parsley, I have mint. Chocolate and Spearmint, but not in seed. I will send you some plants in the spring.

MARY

Blue Ridge Mtns, VA(Zone 7a)

Thank you Mary and Patti. Looking back it was Cam who'd reserved a few Parsley seeds for me.

I mailed a bunch of seed envies today, including the Gourd seeds I promised you in the last round, Erin, and forgot to include. Just wanted you all to get a jump start. Hang on, Patti...I'm almost finished with your envy.

http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/p.php?pid=8337456

I'll still have a good assortment to include in this round and a few others I've ordered that should be here shortly.....will list names and quantities when they're in hand.

Susie, would you like for me to mail my extras to you ahead of time?

Nineveh, NY(Zone 5a)

FOTV- Thank you. I will keep watch. Suppose to get down to 25 below zero tonight. Bunny is staying in until it gets above freezing. Suppose to be above freezing during the day all next week. Maybe some (or all) of this snow will melt. I want to see my snowdrops!

Erin

Which evelyn are you needing? I have an evelyn in the garden, or something like that, in my trade tracker.

Athens, PA

Susie

OMG! I hope you feel better.

For what it is worth, and I do not know if there is any truth to this - ask your doctor, I was told that a bit of citrus will help to keep kidney stones away. That even just a squeeze of lemon in whatever you drink - iced tea, water, etc. is enough to keep the stones away. A friend told me this quite a while ago and her husband has historically had kidney stones. I know some people are stone formers and others are not. I personally have never had them and I also keep fresh lemons in my house at all times and put a wedge of lemon into my iced tea and my V-8 and I do drink both daily.

Let us know how you are feeling.

Carolyn

(Anita) Fort Wayne, IN(Zone 6a)

Hey Susie,

I hope you are feeling better soon. I was up until midnight looking at all the seeds. All I can say is WHOA! Everything was contained very neatly. Mary and/or Di you did an excellent job of organizing and arranging things. Now I'm panicking hoping to put it back just as neatly as you had it. LoL I don't think that will be a problem. Whose idea was it to print up the labels in mailing order? Great idea!!!

Susie, would it be okay If I mail it out on Monday? I'm working all day today and all day tomorrow. I could ask my son to mail it off for me but I prefer not to...there's no telling where it would end up. LoL

there are so many types of great seeds! I'm scratching my head trying to figure out where I can put them all. LoL

(susie) Hastings, MI(Zone 5a)

MONDAY WILL BE FINE Anita I Just called my doc;s office & They want me to go in for an altra sound soon They are calling over the order.
my Brother in TX Is In the Hospital He had Stones in his Prostrate & just had a 6 hr surgery on Weds .
I will ask my doc about the lemons only I don't really trust in this Doc to much of any thing at this point for as young as he is trully looks like a teen.
anyway off i go & will try to get back to you all later in the day if I feel up to it.

(Anita) Fort Wayne, IN(Zone 6a)

Let us know how the ultrasound comes out. I'm willing to bet the lemons help. They surely cannot hurt.

Athens, PA

Susie

good luck - let us know

Concord, NH

were all praying for you!

Deep South, TX(Zone 9b)

When I was 25 I went rock hunting and didn't bring water. I dehydraded and about a week later had a kidney stone. It was a terrible ordeal. Never did get anything for pain and it was before they used ultra sound.

We all need to stay hydrated. Even in the winter they say to drink at least two liters of water a day.

Hope all goes well with you and wishing for a speedy recovery. With todays technology, it's not as big a deal as it was back then.

Dane

(Di) Seven Mile, OH(Zone 6b)

Hope you feel better soon, Susie....I had one a few years back - ouch. Thinking of you and hoping for a sppedy resolution.

(susie) Hastings, MI(Zone 5a)

hey everyone just got home & going to go lay back i have 3 small stones & Doc says they are small so they should pass in a few days , as i knew already anyway if they do not pass by monday then i will go in to have them crushed or removed. so he shot me with something that has made me droopy so you all have a great day .

back when i can
susie

(Anita) Fort Wayne, IN(Zone 6a)

I'm glad the doctor found the culprit and can resolve the problem. I am sorry that you are in pain. I hope you pass them and feel better very soon!
