Thanks, lady! Montana to Houston? Oregon to San Antonio? Is everybody
"going south"?
I have never heard of the books you mentioned. Up until I stopped
working this May, seems like all I ever did was work, eat, and sleep.
My yardwork suffered along with my health. What I had done was: I came
to have an extra copy of the Sunset Western Gardening book, so I bought
3 gigantic notebooks at an office supply store and completely dismantled
the book, put each page in one of those clear sheet protectors, and
reassembled same in the notebooks. Then I started cutting out pictures
of flowers and plants and slipping Them into more clear sheet protectors
and put that page where it belonged with the listing. Have done that
for a number of years, so I have a text entry and photos of tons of
plants. The whole project makes a wonderful reference setup....which is
good, because my memory isn't so hot any more!!
Linda,
I moved south for a man - my husband, who I met on Compuserve 10 years ago. How about you? 
That sounds like a good idea. I have a rather large, messy pile of pages I've torn out of magazines for years. Need to do something with them.

Re "why" me? Health issues. Daughter is an officer in Air Force, has
been stationed here and loves it, so I figured "Why the heck not?" So
here I am...daughter just started a course in Detroit for Air Force,
following which she will be back in San Antonio for 2 weeks, then is
being stationed in Utah !!....but I'm staying put here ;-) I have been
here 3 weeks, but MY THINGS HAVE NOT ARRIVED YET and I am furious. It
is not like in the movies showing that when you pull up at your new home
the moving van arrives later that day...nah...they have my stuff
somewhere in Oregon and being the money-grubbing folks that they are,
they are waiting until they have more stuff to come this direction!! Do
you believe it? Nope, your stuff is not the only stuff in a moving van.
They wait till they can cram it full before heading your direction.
That also means there are plenty of opportunities for your stuff to get
left off somewhere else with other peoples' boxes...yeah, I sound
bitter, I know...;-)

| Yeah, I knew that. Is your stuff still in Oregon? I have some stuff in my brother's shed in Montana that I need to get down here! Maybe they could bring all or some of it.
