A man and his wife were awakened at 3:00 am by a loud pounding on the door.
The man gets up and goes to the door where a drunken stranger, standing in the pouring rain, is asking for a push.
"Not a chance," says the husband, "it is 3:00 in the morning!"
He slams the door and returns to bed.
"Who was that?" asked his wife.
"Just some drunk guy asking for a push," he answers.
"Did you help him?" she asks.
"No, I did not, it is 3:00 in the morning and it is pouring rain out there!"
"Well, you have a short memory," says his wife. "Can't you remember about three months ago when we broke down, and those two guys; helped us? I think you should help him, and you should be ashamed of yourself! God loves drunk people too."
The man does as he is told, gets dressed, and goes out into the pounding rain.
He calls out into the dark, "Hello, are you still there?"
"Yes," comes back the answer.
"Do you still need a push?" calls out the husband.
"Yes, please!" comes the reply from the dark.
"Where are you?" asks the husband.
"Over here on the swing set," replied the drunk.
Here are some of the flowers I planted over the weekend.
Batface Cuphea
midnight blue Lobelia
White Lobelia
Midnight Madness Petunias..... Just to name a few!
I'm going with a pink, lavender, purple, blues and white.........that's how I filled the window boxes and flower beds. Now I'm paying for all my hard work with sore muscles and horrible allergies! But it will all be worth it in about a month.

That was funny. I'll have to try to remember it. Pretty flowers.
That lobelia is stunning! I love blue flowers (natural ones) and must get some of that!!
Oh my, can I relate to the sore muscles and allergies but it really is worth it. You have made some stunning choices.
