genealogy, gardening

Worked on gardening today. I planted the zinnias, Marigolds and tomatoes that we bought at the Farmers Market yesterday. I also sprayed for aphids on the roses then mixed up 4 gals of herbicide and went after grape vines once again in the back woods. I think one or two more tankfuls will achieve my goal of the triangle formed by the creek and the two paths. Disturbingly I had another tick crawling on me when I was sitting in the chair downstairs. I took a good scrubbing shower but that's not a guarantee. I heard from David today about genealogy research being done by a girl in WI tracing Chmielewski. Dinner was the other Tilapia from Saturday along with fresh zucchini, sweet potato and Skinny Minty ice cream for desert. We watched Dancing with the Stars after dinner while I looked at investments. The market went up 400 today and i made a few purchases this morning. I may sell the IGD in my IRA which is a CEF. I don't like CEF's although some of them are OK but I've never had any luck with them. I bought at 12.50 but it's down to 11.50. When it gets back to 13 I'm out of here and will get into an MLP possibly if not a beaten down preferred.
