Guten Morgan this fine Monday.  I hope your weekend was a bitchin one and you're ready for a short week.  (Or maybe you pup owners are breaking out the Thunder shirts in anticipation of the people who are going to be setting off fireworks for the next seven days.  I know we always have people setting them off at random usually starting tonight.  I do actually miss sparklers from when I was a kid and conducting a symphony to make shapes in the air burned into your vision.)  Friday was exhausting y'all.  I had to get some worm spray for a looper worm infestation on my brassicas (who the hell am I??) and whilst poking around the nursery with lightning and looming thunder Thursday night, I spotted a flat of begonias marked down to $10.  Given my zinnias couldn't stay in the long planters because they need sun, I had to relent and buy the begonias.  Anything to block the sea hag from peeking over.   So Friday morning I got to work picking of...
