Business owners tell state lawmakers they are ready to reopen - Dayton Daily News

All my employees are furloughed and filed for unemployment and have yet to get unemployment,” Tom Hamilton, owner of Beavercreek Florist, told the Ohio House of Representatives’ 2020 Economic Recovery Task Force. “My business is struggling since there is no income,” Hamilton said. Coronavirus: Complete coverage from the Dayton Daily NewsClosed by government decree since March 24, he said they missed out on proms, secretaries week and Easter and look forward to reopening at the beginning of May in time for Mothers Day. “Who was it who first taught you how to wash your hands? Mom,” he said. But he and other people in his industry are concerned that if they are forced to stay closed they will lose employees to other companies that were allowed to stay open. And if they can reopen, he said, rehiring people might be difficult as displaced workers could temporarily make more money on unemployment than working because of a short-time federal boost to unemployment.“In addition to the questions of my employees returning, their safety and that of our customers, I have to worry about the economy being strong enough that demand for flowers and gifts continues,” he said. -- Coronavirus: Confused about unemployment?

Gardening: Succulents not only save water and money, but offer other benefits - OCRegister

Aloe bainesii), apple cacti (Cereus spp.), candelabra trees (Euphoriba ingens), century plants (Agave americana ‘Variegata’), beavertail cacti (Opuntia spp.), and golden barrel cacti (Echinocactus grusonii) with patches of red and blue ground cover succulents added here and there for good measure.If you visit smgrowers.com, you will find a listing of retail nurseries near you which, upon request, will special order any of the plants grown by San Marcos Growers.Tip of the Week: Several plants with blue foliage that I had never seen before captured my attention at San Marcos Growers. Since blue is the rarest flower color, there is a gap in the horticultural color spectrum that is nicely filled by plants with blue leaves which may explain our attraction to them.Blue bush (Acacia covenyi) is an Australian native which, if relatively short-lived like many Acacia species, is hardy down to 15 degrees. This large shrub or small tree, growing quickly to a height of twenty feet, may be planted in all soil types, even clay, but should be watered sparingly, if at all. Eucalyptus ‘Moon Lagoon’ is another blue-leaved beauty. It does not exceed 12 feet in height and its foliage is perfect as a bouquet filler, as well as being highly suitable for an everlasting or dry flower arrangement. Next among the blue-leaved brigade is skyscraper Senecio (Senecio ‘Mount Everest’). The name of this plant was clearly given tongue-in-cheek since it grows to only three feet tall. However, its leaves are virtually identical to those seen on the ubiquitous blue chalk sticks (Senecio serpens) ground cover, and so the comical idea of giving a moniker representing outrageous height to this related, if still not very tall, cultivar came to be. Finally, Big Bend yucca (Yucca rostrata ‘Blue Velvet’) is recognizable by four foot diameter rosettes of thin, blue, soft-edged swords on trunks that are 6-12 feet tall. https://www.ocregister.com/gardening-succulents-not-only-save-water-and-money-but-offer-other-benefits

Broken Bow, Idabel, Valiant and Hochatown."I've decorated several businesses in Southeast Oklahoma," Marie said, "including four banks, a phone company, some cell phone businesses and lodges at Beaver's Bend."But Oklahoma isn't as far as she is willing to go. "Every July I go to Dauphin Island, Alabama, where I have several clients. They get decor 'refreshers' each summer," she said. "When I go down there I also go deep-sea fishing for Red Snapper, so it's an annual vacation for me."When she isn't decorating for others, she and her husband Jerry reside on the Louisiana side of Caddo Lake where they enjoy entertaining. They are also very active at Trees Baptist Church. They have four children: Tony Campbell of Queen City, Dee Dee Wells and Misty Lutton of Atlanta, and Damon Donnell of Athens, Texas.Marie says she has never gotten too busy to take on more clients."I never turn anyone down," she said. "I just hire more people to do the work.

Add Christian rap and poor country girl to Anna Konkle’s character and you’ll understand the allure of my younger self.My backstory does not resemble a ladder, a straight path, or a ‘get your degree and enter the job market’ sitch. It’s much more of a 20+ years of pent-up underdog rumbling around in my tummy kind of story.Nobody expected much from me as a kid. I wasn’t a strong student or particularly ‘hawt.’ I had bologna in my school lunches, never Lunchables. I have only recently admitted to sewing imposter Guess labels into my mom-made jeans.
