I'm also a retired union member.

I just did a stroll around the house lot, still deciding if I'll mow or wait to mow. I'm leaning towards waiting until tomorrow.

My current reading choice is a biography of Queen Isabella, wife of Edward II, and also known as the 'She Wolf of France'. People pay a whole lot of attention to Kings but so often it's the Queen, either consort or monarch, who swings the tide of history.

Daylilie beds? Be careful. Daylilies are toxic to cats--the entire plant--acute kidney damage hlthe2b Sep 2023 #10

Yikes! 2naSalit Sep 2023 #12

The entire lot is full of day lily beds but I've never had a problem with the felines. Siwsan Sep 2023 #14

There are a number of varieties--some more toxic than others, although all are. The following hlthe2b Sep 2023 #16
