What's New: Late Response to Your Responses

I received six responses to my question a few weeks ago about whether you had received my RoseBouquet when it seemed they were not going out from the previous DADA Mail System. (I'm sorry, I have not got to answering them individually yet... so busy!)

But I was greatly relieved that most of you were getting the RoseBouquet. But most likely, I think, because I sent it again from my sending email, because I knew that Server being down that one week for 3 days, would ensure that no emails got through that week. Two other weeks the emails were going out dreadfully slowly, so I'm not sure even yet that those emails got through.

The one where I asked for feedback did. So I am sure that there are LIVE friends out there who do read this ezine!

Whew! Thank YOU, to each and every one of you!

I don't like to make excuses, but I've been extra busy with sowing my garden last week, and dealing with other issues that came up. I fell behind on several fronts.

There is the mess in this room while I wait for my niece and her husband to come for my sister's desk suite. OH that they would come soon!

Okay, this must happen at your place too, I know.

This may be way off-topic today, but my sister Elsie told me when I first made a garden here, that I should sow French marigolds - that's the smaller ones.

I've done that on both sides of the side that goes straight through my garden. They are brilliant reds/oranges, and yellows, and they bloom non-stop all summer, She told me a few weeks ago that if I sow them around the edges of the garden, it will keep the rabbits, cats and dogs out of my garden.

Well, I have been aware of such visitors slipping under the neighbours' fence. So now I'm sowing marigolds around the fence borders of my garden and hope to see if that is true.

Also, I save the flower petals in the fall, because the seeds for the next plants are in the one end of each petal. I have jars and cans full of those petals/seeds!! So I'm willing to share if you should want some.
