Stormy night in Georgia–it’s raining all over the world. Or however the song goes. Tornadoes, hail, severe thunderstorms all over northern part of the state. I just had some heavy rain here, but nothing too bad. News showed vids of tornadoes on the ground, and cars whose windows broken out by 3 inch hail. My friend Steve–his uncle couldn’t open the door to leave his house because hail had piled up so high.
Made a new flower mound in the front yard–this one will be full of crocuses. Hopefully Mr UPS won’t trample through that one too, or break more of my discontinued Celtic pavers from Lowe’s. Still more crocuses to plant, Dutch Blue mini irises, and gold colored ramunculus. And prepare spots for the other bulbs to go later. Hollyhocks, cinnamon ferns, gladiolas, Asiatic lilies, and other stuff.
Weather up and down. 60′s today–though supposedly back down to 20′s some nights. I know friends in the Midwest having a time of it.
Haven’t been to gym in a while, but I think the posion ivy splotches dried up enough not to be a problem as long as I wear long sleeves for light workouts.

i’d much rather shovel my snow in 60 degree weather – send some of that shit north! peace, Al
I just do not know, Wil-master. Abs o’steel and red splotches? Be still my beating heart! Your crocus mound of tomorrow sounds gorgeous. Your garden sounds delightful, sir!
Trust me–when I realized the technu bottle was out of date and useless–by that point the spots under the bandages were open and oozing. Not pretty.
Glad the weather missed ya, Wil. Was cold here over night… 14F. Don’t like. Needs to be spring so I can thaw, lol.
Thank you for your kind thoughts Wil.
