The coffee is great this morning. After getting a good soaking yesterday we will get hit by scattered showers with some clearing later today. It will be in the mid 80s later this week so maybe we will dry up a bit out here. wfwf wfwf wfwf

We'll get 80's too....but with rain/storms everyday.. wfwf  ....it'll be very humid, and won't cool much at night either....looks like the 'air' may go for a spell here....I don't sleep well on warm/hot muggy nights.....nope..blah...

Got almost all the laundry done.  I hang it outside to day when it's sunny and warm like today.  Sparyed 3 gallons of Round Up.  I might spray another 2 gallons of the stuff tomorrow.  I need to.  If you don't like it, tough luck.  Swept and vacuumed the house, fixed my hoover floor mate and mopped.  I can't do without that mopping machine.  Did WC on the Discus pair's tank in the kitchen.  I'll start on WCs in the fish room in a bit.  I still haven't eaten.  It will be left over Chicken Masala over egg noodles.  It's thawing as I type.

Vinegar works well for annual's.  Try it on hard stuff like privet hedge.

...they say to get agriculture grade vinegar, 20%....or freeze the vinegar, and lop off the water that separates...but the acetic acid becomes an unknown strength, so be careful....others say add salt to the vinegar....or add salt to a 5gal bucket of water til it won't dissolve any more and use that....

..that southern privet hedge is nasty, hearty stuff.....

I honestly believe that glycophospate is a safer alternative to adding runoff from a strong acid and sodium chloride run off to the soil.  I will continue to do as I am doing for now.  Shoot, It's not like I go spray for weeds every weekend.  This is the first time in 3 years.  Lay off, please.

Sorry...Sometimes I take offence when non is intended.  It wasn't you who offended me.  It was Dennis.

No offense intended Liz.  I live by the George Carlin guide lines of "Live and Let Live".  Just for future reference, what did I say to offend you?
