Re: Taps....

No problem, it seems to me that the most profitable is selling wreaths, I don't like lilies like some flowers can be harmful to children or pets.. I have read several books on the toxicity

of some flowers that folk grow. You see I think originally these were grown mainly by religious groups for medicinal purposes'. It gives me The shivers when I see such plants for sale. Of course folk do not go around chewing flowers but animals can be made quite ill if they choose a nasty. 🌺

Re: Ciel

I would put some on the local graves but the squirrels would chew them. I think folk move and the cats come back to the original home ground. Sadly I cannot grow Mums for sale.

Just a little phobia as they can make pyrethrum from them..🌺

I've also had a new stray wandering up to the back door. He's a hefty guy, a lavender point Siamese, I think, pretty burly but also rather dingy as if he came from a good home but has been out in the world for a while. 

I would buy a pot of pinks to cheer my house in the coming winter gloom. I have mums--red, orange, and yellow.

Chiff Chaff.....

I hope you don't mind me sending this post off to my Oklahoma Granddaughter.  She is just finishing high school and she wants to go to become a florist.   She loves flowers.  I thought she might learn something from this....like maybe how much work it is.

Good Evening

I hope the cat will be okay.  We've noticed our neighbor has a stray cat living under his shed.  We have no idea where it came from.  I'm glad you were able to save a bucket of apples.  It's going to be unseasonably warm here all week.  It makes no sense to me.  It should be much cooler here by now.  I guess this is the new normal for us.  I wanted to take the air conditioners out this weekend, but now, because of the temperatures, I'm going to wait another week.  I hope you have a good week.

Your area's licensing and medical treatment options seem overly bureaucratic and complicated. I can see why one would be reluctant to take a wandering cat to a vet if it was unwell.  And please do take good care of yourself.
