I admire your continuing to chase the dream Duggan. May your next one be "The One". :Love: Everyone deserves that in a life.

Missing you Baby. :Love: I was just about to chase you down. You have a quirky sense of humor that's unmatched here, and I've missed the sound of your laughter. Good to see you again. Things are getting ready to get busy here again.

Adjusting to being a widow kinda sucks. Here I am developing this body I haven't seen since college and broadening my horizons. Feeling all sexy like I haven't in years and then I remember I don't have Dale to strut my sexy self for anymore. Sucks big time.

Deep breath. Exhale....... One more time. Just breathe Girl. Just breathe.

Ok. Better now. Time to get the Update posted. Be right back. BIG HUG. :hugs:

There are two things, one getting yourself in health is good for you without having anyone see it but yourself. Two, if you catch yourself staring at something while simultaneously in dark thought, just do the Jedi mind trick. Work on the garden, call your daughter, watch some comedy...Bill Burr is one of my favs on Netflix streaming, or some show that makes you literally laugh out loud, or any show that will keep your attention. The point is to take your attention off of the dark thoughts and don't allow yourself to make a habit of that.
:Love:
Since I have ADHD, my Jedi mind trick is the opposite. If I catch myself thinking about anything other than what I am doing I have to remember what I was focusing on before the last focus...sometimes before that one too...who am I kiddin' my life is one tangent thought after another minus the ones I can't remember :)

Yeah, I have a few Jedi mind tricks myself. No dark thoughts. Frustrated, yes. Dark, nah, too much joy Baby. :Love: Actually, I write. Get the demons out on paper, see them for the paper dragons they are. Wow! Another dragon reference! I was thinking about the dragons. We/I have one hanging from the living room ceiling, one watching over the bedroom from the edge of the workbench, shoot, I have a flying Chinese Air Dragon (mouth closed, I believe) tattooed on my right upper back! I seem to have an appreciation for dragons. :laughtwo:

Yeah, that was just random stuff. On my way out to my labyrinth. I've been working up to actually leaving for hours. Having no scheduling needs makes one move differently.

Thanks for the laugh. :Love:

Congratulations Pigeon, have a great one.
:bravo:
 
Ha! Made it to the street and on my way. Whew! I was becoming concerned. :laughtwo: Now I can pound out the last minute details. Planting in the morning! WooHoo!!!

OK now, music!
 
Back from dinner, fortified by the food and my spirit refreshed by the walk along the river and my daily journey through the labyrinth. It's 10:57 PM, and in my convoluted time frame, that means my evening has just begun. I'm going to take a few fragmentary hits of my dwindling supply of Dark Devil Auto and then get busy getting the list finished.

still to do before planting

- mix seedling soil for LOS (add additional 25% perlite)

- holes in cups

- labels on cups

- soil in cups (in AM)
6 LOS, 6 HB Kit
- closet: Carnival, (HB) , Mystery seeds x 2 (HB), Afghani x 3 (LOS)
- tent: HB Kit: Dark Devil Auto, Auto Jock Horror x Auto Amnesia, Auto Jack Herer
- tent: LOS: Buddha Taho OG, Strawberry Blue, Medical No Name

- rehydrate fresh kelp

- liners for seedling shelves

- set up SWICK trays for seedling area in tent
- will need smaller one for Auto JH x Auto A

- set up soaker cups for seeds

- Mark 1/2" guide on pen for planting hole

I think that's all of it. Let's get busy Girl.

One of the advantages of being married to a hobby maniac is you end up with lots of interesting tools. I went looking for something to use to punch holes in the cups and found this awl, perfect for the job. Thank you Dale Francis. :Love:

Punch from the inside out to more easily drain. I like to clean off the flash, hence the small scissors with the fine point for close cuts. Be sure to make holes along the outer depression or water will collect there. I like to tear these holes down the side a bit. The scissors work well for that job as well.

OK then. Eleven more to go.
 
Busy, busy! Never a dull moment around here. That's a nice collection of genetics you got there! I'm all buckled up and ready to watch. :drool:

I'm pretty stoked myself Magic. It's been forever getting to this point. I still have to research most of these seeds. :laughtwo: I always manage to put that part off until they're planted, because, as you can plainly see, I keep changing my mind.
 
This is what the cups look like after the hole have been punched. This is the point where most quit, because, after all, the holes are punched. :laughtwo:

This is my starting point. I want to take this..........

..... and turn it into this.

Only three more to trim.

I loaded the pipe two (???) hours ago, and it's still sitting there waiting. How does this happen? OK. Get the three finished and then catch that buzz.

Edit: 1:02 AM. The cups are ready to be labeled. SweetSue is ready for that buzz. Here I am again, reaching for the pipe for the first time since early morning. LOL!!!

Cups ready for soil. Still haven't picked up the pipe. Let me make correct that injustice right now. :cheesygrinsmiley:

Well, let me join you Magic. Think I'll pop the earbuds in and enjoy some nice R&B while I expand my mind. :laughtwo:

Today was Blood, Sweat, & Tears and Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass kinda day for me. Enjoy!!

OMG Magic! I'd forgotten about Herb. Let me pull some YouTubes up right this very minute! Better yet, hit the iTunes store and grab a couple for the playlist. Big Hug Girl. :hugs: :high-five:
 
"A Taste of Honey", "Tangerine" and "Lollipops and Roses". Sweet. I owe you one girl. :Love:

edit: I'd forgotten how much I enjoyed this album. My mother owned it and played it all the time. Sweet memories.

Good buzz building. I keep getting distracted by the threads. You guys!!! :laughtwo:

Holy Ba-jeezus, Batman! That's a lot of babies you're starting! I'll have to hit the bong before I can comprehend where they're all gonna go. :bong:

Remember, if you want to clone any of the non-auto strains, put them in the veg closet instead of the tent - that is, unless you want to try your hand at monstercropping. :cheesygrinsmiley:

Thank you for the reminder. I do believe it's time to try my hand with clones, don't you? I mean, I'm growing Carnival and Jamaican Dream for goodness sake! I think if I don't at least try cloning one of you will reach out and thump me, and with good cause. :laughtwo:
