holliback2Yeah, It is really nice the girls really like it and want to go back. I will probally take them to that on Wed. and then on Tues. do the free movie thing since they are both on those days and at the same time. The movies only have two more though. 
holliback2I haven't found the park yet but was shown oneby the realtor but don't remember where it is still trying to figure things out. 
tbosorioHi Beth. Thanks for checking me out:-) I remember you guys. You have such sweet little girls. I know Christi and Breanna miss hanging out with you guys. Do you'll like NC? Yes, Kaitlyn can roll from her belly to her back but she has to work at it a little harder. 
cdillman23How many does NC have? I know that in TN we had two. One in the fall and one in the spring. Just curious... 
tucksmom^Just one in Aug. that I remember... 
theoldoneHello how are You? don't know if you remember me, I am from the Gettysburg group. I saw your post below, about Army wives. I like the show too. I noticed up until this second part of this second season, its been real good about keeping alot of "sinful" sex out and nakedness, I mean they really had downplayed it,until Roland had his thing, Marilyn had her thing, which ended in horrible tragedy, and now looks like the nurse and Dr. are getting too close. So,I try to turnoff those scenes, and watch the good parts, because it seems to have a lesson at the end of each show. Hey, thanks for the info. up there, I will have to check PA's. out. Have a great week! 
theoldoneI agree on that note! Roland and his wife are very cute right now with the baby coming and everything! Its so funny to talk about this with someone else. I do not know of anyone else who watches this here. I think the authors are doing a real good job, or should I say writers, portraying this way of life, and especially what they may be feeling right now. I missed this past Sunday, so I'll have to watch the repeat before the episode next week. 
theoldoneHave a great week!

We have a problem.... 06-14-08 10:37am EST


I went out to water and check on my tomato plant this morning. The tomato that was there looked a little.... funny. After watering it real well and turning it around so the other side could get the sun I saw why. A caterpillar had eaten it, along with most of the leaves around it. But no, there wasn't just ONE caterpillar. I found THREE on my tomato plant!!!

Since it's a hanging plant, I can't figure out how they got there and why they passed up my herbs that are in the pot on top. Any suggestions how to keep them away?
jerzgirlewwww...that IS a problem. I have no answers for you. Did you google it?? 
leahsparksLet the girls pick them off & put them in a bug cage as pets... ;) 
bbeasley^^ No thanks! I get the heeby geebies just looking at the picture!

I just googled it and it's called a Tomato Hornworm. YUCK! I need to check the underside of the leaves to see if there are any more eggs. 
all_gods_childrenIs that that a chrysalis in white above the caterpillar? Sorry for your plant, but he looks pretty cool to me. 
bbeasleythat big thing is what's left of my tomato. :( 
mimi_8It needs to be dusted with Sevin dust. I'll bring some this afternoon. 
batidwMy grandpa would check his tomato plants daily for worms and smoosh them with his fingers. 
joes_wifeYou just have to pick them off - quick. 
joeIf you eat the catepillars first, they can't eat your plants :) Olive oil, garlic, shallots, cut that fat one up into medallions and put it over some pasta. yum! 
bbeasleyThanks! Now I know what we're having for dinner tonight. Bleh!!! 
mayflowerI hope I don't get that problem! So far my tomatos are looking good! 
matidwellDon't have an answer for you. I was curious about the fires, but just noticed your post below. The smoke was real bad here on Thursday, and we're a good 150 miles or so away! 
chickadeeand to think I used to like caterpillars. LOL. Can't tolerate a tomato thief! 
tucksmomSo sorry about your tomato thief! Watching them every day is the best prevention, but now that it's gone, I hope you have many more blooms. 
tucksmomCan you get some praying mantis? They eat all kinds of "pests." 
sarahtidwellYou do have a problem. Just smoosh them as Beth suggested. 
poundsterlingthanks! 
oeyjay143Yeah I'm fine just deleted it after I thought about the answer, it was really easy to find... And I asked God to forgive me and I learned from my mistake...

*sniff, sniff* 06-09-08 11:51am EST
For the short time we were staying with Tripp's dad after moving to NC, I was able to enjoy watching Lifetime TV. I fell in love with the first season of Army Wives! Well, the new season just started this week and I don't have Lifetime TV at home. So I just watched the first episode of season 2 online and cried through the whole thing!

I just love that show! I can't relate to it in any way, but I love the way the characters formed their friendships and how they help and support each other. When one hurts, they all hurt. When one rejoices they all rejoice. They have a common bond and know what each other needs in order to make it through the hard times. Hmmmmm.... sounds a bit like our Christian friendships!

chickadeeMINE, TOO! 
sjbI have really come to love this show!! Just for fun, I started watching it this last several months, and fell in love with it!! I am "DVRing" it and haven't watched the season 2 opener yet, but I'm looking forward to it. Wish I had a way to send it to you. =-) 
chickadeeOkay, so imagine you have a wonderful home and a wonderful car. I am trying to find out more about YOU :) 
chickadeeMy daughter has been an army wife since January, but is still here so hasn't had that yet. But soon she will be at Fort Bliss with her hubby. I hope she meets lotsa of great army wives. 
chickadeeYou are so much fun :) 
chickadeeAnd you gave me an idea for another "what if" blog. 
cdillman23I cried too!!!! 
sarahtidwellI've never seen that show. Glad you got to watch it online. 
derbydiI've never watched it either. Maybe I'm missing something! 
cbairdI've seen the previews, but have never seen the show. Isn't it nice how shows are posted on the internet now which means you don't have to have cable to watch certain shows? ;o) 
tucksmomThinking of you in your busy weekend... 
tucksmomCan you think about Thanksgiving this early? Your brother says they will try to be here then, and we'd love to have you all here, too. 
robynbobm:) My brother is only 2 years younger, which is why a friend thought it was funny. But it is still weird. I think it's just a normal feeling, being the ildest child, that you shoulc be the only one all grown up. Though there are times you also wish they'd act mature. Silly, isn't it? 
robynbobm*oldest, and should
