Hey Sherrye. It's not easy for sure. But when he's home, I have a list of things that have got to be done. If not, he would sit in his recliner in front of the tv and sleep all day. So I am probably saving his life by making him work while he's here! It's supposed to be in the high 60's here all week. Yesterday was beautiful with 75 and sunny blue sky. I hope we don't get too cold. I am not ready for it. SO I will leave my 2 potted plants outside on the window ledge then. Thanks. ANd hang in there! He'll be home soon.
It got down to 32 deg. here last I looked. I have plants sitting all over the floor in the house. I haven't decided what to do with the two hanging plants yet. I might just toss them until next year and/or take some cuttings and start over. I did take cuttings from all of my coleus because I am sure they will be gonners tomorrow. Sometimes it is so hard to let the plants go they are so beautiful. I still have a cutting to take from my red geranium.
