Me? Well, I'm 43, been married for 22 years and we have a 18 year old son. Hmmm, that might explain the gray hairs. I'm a foreman at a local non-destructive testing facility (looking for defects in powder metal parts, mainly automotive parts). I also have a small soap and bath product business; mostly regular customer reorders and friends and family.

Aw, I feel so loved! you are such a sweetie!
What a terrific shot of the bee in flight, how awesome is that?!!
My Stella d'oro's look crappy this year, I think they need to be divided.
Don't you love how the comfrey just falls down to the ground?
Oooooh, such pretty flowers, made my day!
: )))
Nope...they fall down on their own about three times a growing season, and they regrow from the center. They grow about shoulder high (4 feet or so), bloom, fall down (usually by the weather, but they fall down on their own if nothing knocks/blows them down) and regrow from the center. Once they fall down, I cut them off. The new growth is already 6-8 inches high in the center. I'll try to take a picture of that later today. Originally this plant was used as fodder (cow feed in the silo) and the farmers could harvest a field of it 3-4 times a year.
