Outdoor weather

First of all.... Lee has done something to the backspace button. You can't just hold it down and it back all the way to where you want. You have to press press press press....etc etc..... very annoying. Does anyone know what button he has pushed because I need to undo it. Seems like something Heather K. would know....lol.
Now, on to my post.... The weather has been too nice to be in the house. yesterday I got in from work and laid down until noon, then outside I went. I watered the plants - I moved over half of the baby plants to 3 inch pots. The thyme and sweet basil are starting to smell good! I had Lee smell them and he said - ooooooo that smells like spaghetti! - I guess he thought they were going to smell like flowers???? I was like " duh, that's the idea. " We went to Walmart and bought some plants for our garden beds. We now have little bitty straightneck squash ( 6 ) and Bell Pepper ( 9 ) and sweet banana peppers ( 9 ). We have one whole bed of peppers. That was pretty much all they had at walmart that we wanted. We still have 2 more beds to plant something in. I going to start some more seeds - zucchini and I forgot what the other thing was...
I messed with the pool some. Gotta start getting it cleared up. I think we've got most of the leaves off the bottom. It's hard to tell since the water is so yucky. We've got the pump running and I've super shocked it and put algecide and I'm going to go out and probably shock it again when I see what it looks like today. Yesterday it was already showing improvement. From chocolate colored water to a nice sea foam green. :o) Lee spent the afternoon cutting down cedars for our fence. He has already gone all the way across the front and down the yard beside the house and started going across the back part now to connect to the other existing fence. We are almost ready for the wire - the expensive part. Maybe we will have our goats next month. :o) I want some babies! they are so cute. I bet our momma dog ( still with no name ) will be trying to herd them up. Sadie too - she already herd the cats and other 2 dogs up when we drive in the driveway. Every time we pull in she runs frantically all over the yard to all the animals to put them in their place.

OK, since you mentioned me by name I'm going to have to chime in on the backspace button problem. LOL Check to see if it's all the keys that are doing that: Open a text doc or something and hold down one of the letters and see if it repeats. If it does repeat, I'm not sure what your backspace button's problem is, but if it doesn't repeat, do this:

Go to your Control Panel and go to Accessibility Options (should have a handicap icon). Is the checkbox for FilterKeys checked? If so, uncheck it. That should fix the problem.

Let me know if it works!
