A real cutie! PROBABLY not a guy. Most yellow tabby are female. Glad she'll have a home.

So I am bribing my son to start helping with chores around the house. He's like his momma and loves animals and he wants a fish again. So we made a deal if he helps take out the garbage and clean the house I will buy him a betta with my next paycheck.

so just a short update on my garden. I have harvested one pepper so far they aren't doing as good as I would want, next year ill try to get them in the ground sooner and see if that works. I have harvested a good amount of cherry tomatoes. I don't know why my luck is so bad with tomato's but every time I buy a beefsteak or other large tomato they all end up being miss labeled cherry tomato's. my corn is finally starting to get tassels so I should be getting corn soon. I have a couple pea pods that are almost ready. The grass hopers have all but destroyed my beans but a couples plants have survived. I have pounds and pounds of basil that I don't know what to do with And last but not least my watermelon is starting to take off.
