Thanks, JaNan and Cam.

Mmmmmm, I enjoy fajitas, Cam! Now I want mexican, like you guys!

So far today has been a pretty good day. I woke up to find my wife making me breakfast. Then I spent some time with my son in the pool. It is super nice weather here. It isn't too hot or cold. The pepper seeds I planted are doing very well. They are probably big enough to re-pot. I should buy myself some cheap 4" pots or something to put them in.

[Jananas Bananas]

We're back from dinner. I am stuffed! It was really good!

Sounds like you are having a really nice Father's Day Tom.

Cam I love fajitas. They are a must have about every other time we go to our Mexican Restaurant. I fix them at home too though.

Sherry are you off the phone yet?

So nice that your wife made you breakfast, Tom! I bet you enjoyed it. A good wife that does nice things for you, is hard to come by, so you sure are blessed.


Even better that you got to spend some quality time with your boy, in the pool. Your kids are sure gonna have a terrific summer with that pool around!


Very funny, JaNan...yes I am off the phone!


I was about to post shots of another yummy dinner I had. Saw your pic too in the dinner thread JaNan. I'll comment shortly. I'm still loading the last pic of my dessert...

Yes, the flower is definitely variegated, like the leaves. What a beauty!


Sorry to hear you're depressed, Cam. Me too. I miss my dad today.


Enjoy your mexican food, JaNan. Chat soon...


: )

Fathers day is always a sad day for me. I still miss my father very much. I try not and think about it but its always there I miss him. Im not a father so fathers day is always kinda a lonely day. Moms birthday is always close to fathers day we all took her out for dinner last night. And tuesday my nephew is coming over were taking mom to lunch for japanese food were they cook at your table. Tuesday is moms birthday first day of summer.

Father's Day is tough for people whose dads aren't around. I sure wish my dad was here, and know just how lonely father's day can be, Greg and Cam.


We must count our blessings though, and be grateful for what we have. I am also glad that I did get to share many Father's Days with my dad before he died. I always light a candle for him on special days like today and keep it burning all day and evening.


Cherish the memories.


Ok so I posted my dinner in the thread. It was so yummy.


Wow, that'll be so fun, celebrating your mom's birthday, Greg. That Japanese restaurant will be wonderful. Hope you guys have lots of fun.

I love the food they cook at your table. It is entertaining. Even though they do the same stuff all the time, it is always fun and the food is always good.

I do cherish the memories. Thats one thing no one can take away. I was 18 when my father went on the journey.
Yes im looking forward to the celabration ! I love japanese food.

[Jananas Bananas]

Hi Greg! I always seem to miss you when you are here in the insomnia thread.

I had a bad experience at at Japanese restaurant where they cook it at your table. The hot oil kept popping on me and then the guy sliced up shrimp and squash and missed. A piece of hot squash ended up on my chest. Not fun! Guess that's why I don't like it.

[The Hollyberry Lady]

Omg JaNan...how horrible! I would have freaked! I'm not big on Japanese food but have been to restaurants where they cook at your table. I can see why you don't like it though JaNan, with a bad experience like that.


Yes, Greg doesn't chat here too often but I like it when he does as well.


So sorry you lost your dad at such a young age, Greg. That must have been very rough on you.


So I'm not sure how long I'll be logged on for but if I leave abruptly, not to worry, I'll be back again another day.


I just have a few things on the go right now but I'll be back when I can...


: )

[cherokee_greg]

o wow what a bad time you had at the japanese reastraunt. I always think about that if they miss. It seems kinda scary sometimes

[cherokee_greg]

Tom I checked out that link you have its real nice. Wow lots of work putting it together. Real nice

[Jananas Bananas]

It was painful too! I am always the lucky one at restaurants. A waitress spilled a whole tray of ice tea on me once. The wait staff gathered over in a corner and laughed. I was NOT a happy camper. And they had their ceilings fans on and I was shivering and cold for the whole meal. The manager brought me a plate of cheese nachos. Big whup! I can laugh about it now, but it wasn't funny at the time.

Sorry, not trying to bum you all out! I love eating out, but it seems like if something is going to happen it always happens to me!

Greg your variegated strawberries sure look great! What are those little dainty ones in your last picture?

[Willow87]

Janan that's terrible! How was everyone's Father's Day?

[Jananas Bananas]

Had a good one, but quiet here. Took my hubby out for dinner at his favorite restaurant. Made him happy!

[The Hollyberry Lady]

Gotta go in a few minutes but omg that's so awful JaNan! They were laughing in the corner?! Oh man if that happened to me, they'd have had my meal on their heads! And the manager would have had his natchos stuck up...nevermind!


Hope everyone has a great night and a good week ahead.

Hey Sherry, do you still frequent Unusual Plants? I got some notifications for updates to the seed thread over there, someone looking for jade. Seed Traders... | Page 4 | Unusual Plants Forum - Plant Discussion Board

[The Hollyberry Lady]

No Zac, I don't log on there much anymore. It got kind of boring for me but I did like the people on there and thought they were friendlier than this site, for the most part. No one posted much though.


Unfortunately gang, we are experiencing a flat-out mail strike here in Canada, which means I can't mail to anyone and they can't mail to me! Don't know how long it will last for but I just posted about it in the Current News Events Discussion Thread.


Sucks, but it's happened before...once for three months! I plan on sending some stuff out just as soon as it's over.


So I hope everyone's having an ok Monday. It might be a late one for me tonight, not sure.


Anyone around?


: )

[cherokee_greg]

I think this would be fun check it out
Read this question, come up with an answer and then tomorrow I will post the answer. This is not a trick question. It is as it reads. No one I know has gotten it right, Few people do.


A woman, while at the funeral of her own mother, met a guy whom she did not know. She thought this guy was amazing. She believed him to be her dream guy so much that she fell in love with him right there, but never asked for his number and could not find him. A few days later she killed her sister.

Question: What is her motive for killing her sister?

[Give this some thought before you answer, I will post the answer tomorrow]
