Morning, My goodness this thread grew...:) Purple, I had to chuckle....Don't read between the lines. lol. Ok. Purp, no need to worry. You will not be held accountable for my stupidity if a plant or plants kick the bucket. I am indeed proud of you for coming up with the idea and sharing with us poor, over-crowded indoor gardeners. Believe me, so far, my combined plants are doing well, and would you believe, the YARD has more room??? Of course, while shopping yesterday, I did something I said I wouldn't do...browse plants at Home Depot, came home with Phonix roebelenii. A large plant! Asleep, my 'man.' How are you? How's the Scheff's coming along. Sorry, I didn't read all the posts, so will have to update to understand what you and Purp are discussing. As for long hair on men, you know my feelings..I think it's sexy. lol. The last line I read was you talking about moving tanks, and stuff on tanks..Ugh is right! I'm seeing Monsteras. Very pretty Philodendrons, but grow TALL. For some reason, a Monster, Split leaf? I bought at WAlmart before I said I wasn't going to be buying more plants, hangs...??? What's with that. It has a health problem, for sure..Everyday I find another brown leaf. The basket doesn't have a saucer, so it gets watered in the sink. To think, I left a smaller, much smaller version in the alley for someone to take..and they did. So, who's grouping what these days? Toni

got it :-) Lucy

I'm here! Finally I'm here! I really didn't take my gifts & run off without returning gifts to each of you. :) I want to first apologize for my slow response in thanking you all. I'm so, so sorry that I wasn't able to get on here & thank you sooner. It wasn't because I didn't appreciate your gifts. I absolutely did. As some of you know, I have rheumatoid arthritis. I usually fight it & only have a couple of days at a time when it keeps me down. Most of the time I'm able to function fairly well. Every once in a while I have a major flare up that knocks me down completely. When that happens, since I live alone, I need help with simple things like getting in & out of bed, etc. I don't like imposing on people more than I have to. So instead of asking family to come stay with me during that time, I go stay with one of them. I just got home 2 days ago & opened these remaining boxes yesterday. Monipsych/Monica sent me: 2 Cross stitch kits, one floral & one of teapots. Tiger Lily Bath set which included body mist,lotion,soap, bath salts & sachet. A Pretty teapot tart burner with 4 Yankee candle tarts that smell wonderful. 2 mini wind chimes, one for St. Patrick's day & one floral bell. A thermometer for outdoors, a teapot picture frame. Some tulip bulbs & lots of seeds for planting. Thank you Monica for nice things. Earthly Delights/Maryanne sent me: A very pretty Thomas Kincade gift set. It included the decorated gift box which contained a mug, tea, bon bons, cookies & a diary. She also sent me a lavender bath set which consisted of washcloth, shower gel & body butter. She sent me some yummy goodies: Cookies, chocolate almonds & cinnamon roasted cashews. Some note cards & a prayer card was attached to the birthday card. Plus a big, fat chicken with wind chimes hanging from it. So cute!. Thank you Maryanne for the wonderful box of gifts. ggwrn/Ginger sent me: A pretty garden flag, 2 pot stakes which are a fairy & a gnome. A cute bunny pot holder & easter egg kitchen towel. Then LOTS of pamper me stuff! 2 bath bombs, green tea lotion, 2 pacs of foot scrub, foot lotion, 2 facial pacs & a bath pillow. Thank you Ginger for the wonderful gifts. Dawiff/Alison sent me: A pretty teapot spoon rest. A cute fairy on a daisy. The daisy is big but shallow so I think it will be perfect for a butterfly water bowl. A beautiful white wall sconce. A pretty tea light burner with a bag full of tea-lights. Plus 10 wonderful smelling Yankee candle tarts to burn also. Thanks Alison for the wonderful gifts. Hummingbird Daisy/ Tina sent me: A hummingbird garden kit. It has a 8" hanging basket with potting medium & seeds for hummingbirds. Thanks Tina for the nice gift. Once again I'm so sorry for the late thank yous. Dawiff & Earthly Delights have been in a year long swap with me before. Hopefully they will vouch for me when I say I have never been absent this long before. I try to be a good swap partner & post thank you notes promptly. I try to send nice boxes out early in the month. I just couldn't help it this time. Please don't think I was intentionally being rude & thoughtless. On a brighter note, I mailed my April & May boxes today. So Monica's might be a day late & Maryanne's a day early.
