Thank you both kindly. So, 10 plants, it will be. If, I have the room.

Hi everyone,

I want to apologize to all.

I haven't been around the board much lately.

I also haven't been able to get to orders the last month. I have about a dozen orders, mostly from TV members I think. It will be around the middle of Sept before I will have time and energy to work on them.

This growing season (if you can call it that LOL) has been horrible for me. Obviously not like getting a hurricane, but still very challenging for me. I've been having a lot of stress migraines lately. That's part of the reason I'm so behind on orders.

Another reason for the migraines is that when we've been checking on many of the plants, it's obvious that some of my spring greenhouse workers didn't pay attention to properly marking the seedlings they were potting up. Lots of stuff that isn't what it is labeled. I don't know what seed I'll be able to collect yet this fall as stuff is such a mess.

It's been one problem after another this year. I can't wait for it to be over. Hopefully the next year will be better.

Carol

Carol- So sorry to hear your having such a tough time.

I am one of those orders and I put a note when I placed the order "No hurry Carol" as I was hoping you were busy with harvest. Next years seed so anytime before 2012 works for me. Actually, early 2012 works too! Put my order on the bottom of your to do list. I will be praying for you. LInda

Hi Carol,

I'm another of the orders - I ordered them as aNightOwl from Bonanza.com - no worries. I don't need the new seeds for a few months.

I hope things turn around for you soon.

Wi-sunflower · September 1, 2011

I knew about you 2 and that you didn't need them right away. But I was hoping to have gotten to them by now.

I didn't want this to sound like a woe is me post as I know a whole lot of others have had bad seasons too.

I just wanted to let people know I'm rather backed up with work and will get to orders when I can.

Thanks everyone,
Carol

Hi Carol,

One of the orders is mine, too. No worries.

I get migraines, too, and the last couple weeks have had them repeatedly. Besides stress, which can be a trigger, mine get triggered by changes in weather, as in weather fronts moving through and changes in barometric pressure.

Tania · September 1, 2011

Carol,

I am sure the things will start getting better for you, they always do! Please hold on, and not get stressed up. It helps to relax and take it easy sometimes.

Best luck for the remaining harvest and best wishes for the next growing season!

Tania, you of all people truly know a difficult season with your health issues and growing problems too. I'm in no way in as bad a situation, but I do tend to stress over stuff.

Thanks everyone for the words of encouragement and understanding.

We have found a few interesting varieties including a few of the Dwarf project varieties. I should have plenty of seeds from several of those.

Lots of work to do after I recover from this coming weekend. We have 3 market days in a row. This is the only time of the year I try that. But if the weather co-operates it can turn a so-so market season around.

That's been part of my stress. We've had a decent amount of stuff to sell. But we've had way toooo many market days that have been stormy so sales have stunk. We didn't make payroll for my part-timers most of Aug. Usually we start to have money for ourselves by now.

Time to get to work,
Carol

Carol,

I just recently ordered from you and I also want you to know I'm not in a rush so take your time getting my order to me.

Aloha, Lucy

Carol asked me to let people know she's currently having e-mail/general
computer problems with her new computer. When she gets up and running,
she'll be back on T'Ville! Darlene

Sun City Linda · September 14, 2011

Ohhhh, Poor Carol. I HATE it when I have to get a new computer.

tomakers · September 14, 2011

I thought computer problems were "why" you got a new computer.

Sun City Linda · September 14, 2011

LOL only if you are moderately tech savy. Otherwise, it is the beginning of sorrows, trying to get everything switched over and working. "Working" being the key.

nancyruhl · September 17, 2011

My order can also wait until whenever it works for you. Can't grow any of them until then anyway. Hope things are going better for you.

delltraveller · September 26, 2011

Anyone know if Carol has kicked that new computer enough times to be up and running again?
