We're going to see Garth Brooks tomorrow night

16 years ago

He's in L.A., Staples Center doing 5 benefit concerts for the fire victims, 2 tonight and 3 tomorrow. The one tonight is televised right now on CBS. He'll do five shows in 2 days...ours is at 9:00 tomorrow night, the last show. Hope he's not burned out by then! LOL...he has so much energy I think he'll do just fine. All tickets were 30.00 and every cent if going to the fire victims. He sold out 5 shows in an hour I think it was. We got lucky and got floor seats! Should be a fun concert......

Hi Susan, Regarding Zygos, I will limit my observations to my plants. I grow Zygo species only. I don't think that rot is a problem with more mature growth in Zygos. My experience has been that water getting into the crown of a very young growth is especially dangerous when there is inadequate air movement. Rot is likely. I don't concern myself too much with the plants left outdoors in the rain. Rot happens. Zygopetalum sends out far greater numbers of new growths than other orchids, Cattleya e.g. When the plants are indoors, I water early in the morning. I have a fan "on", 24/7. Air movement isn't an issue. The spotting in Zygo leaves has been a source of comment from "experts" for many years. From the reading that I have done over the years, I think that the source of spotting is a naturally occurring biological agent which is not harmful to the plants. I hesitate to call the spotting a problem. I have noticed that the spotting becomes more pronounced in weakened, darkly colored plants. I have also noticed that the spotting is reduced in strong plants with light green colored leaves. Regardless of whether a plant is strong or weak, spotting is commonly found in all. I have purchased plants bred within the USA. I have imported a few from Brasil. My observations are the same regardless of the source. Can Zygos be found without the spotting? I don't know. It doesn't concern me. If the plant is vigorous and the flowers are numerous, bold and colorful, then I don't care! I'd like to add an additional note about Zygos. I have repeatedly seen it written that Zygos flower once per year. Yes, in some years that is true. I have also had exceptional years with frequent flowering from the same plant/same pot, almost non-stop for months. The flowering is often stimulated by cooler temps at a particular stage of growth. When the conditions are optimal, flowering happens! My brief anecdotes represent past performance which is not a guarantee of future results. Future flowering will fluctuate. Of course, what happens in Md may not happen elsewhere. :-) --Stitz--

It certainly can be done...the tile will take the longest, then the hardwoods, carpet takes no time. If your builder gets it all lined up right...ANYTHING can be done. One day, I was at the house and there were about 6 guys doing base and crown, 2 master carpenters doing the fireplace overmantle, panel jambs, wainscoting and all of the built ins in the closet, a guy working on installing the cabinets, and painters working on the exterior! It was crazy, there was a circular saw going in almost every room! BUT...like post above said, it may very well take a little longer. Just mentally prepare yourself. You are so close!! We are about 5 weeks out and while I can't wait to live in our new house...I start hyperventilating thinking about all we have to do between now and then. But it WILL get finished! When the going gets tough...focus on some aspect of your house that your love and think about that. There are things in our layout that would have been nice to change...but it is so much nicer and better suited to our family than our old house! I am focusing on all the positives. Best of luck to you! So exciting!

got to hear the urologist explain the procedure and alternatives if it's not what they think - or more complex, he sounds competent and confident which makes me happy. Plus I rode up in the elevator with him and he said he liked my flowers [white and pink carnations for MOm :)] good sign to meet him first I think. Saw the D.O. who is such an optimist and has known my family for 35 yrs. Still waiting to hear how it went but at least I saw Mom today. Thanks for the continued support, it's meant alot. Still need a nap though lol.

A Reminder: Whatever Martha is on tomorrow night!

I am shocked at how crude Alexis is (having never heard her radio show). She used foul language (even the-F-word which was bleeped out but we all knew what she was saying) and talked about men using hair dryers to dry their "area" ...when it had absolutely nothing to do with the Martha Stewart segments. For those of you who stopped watching the show after 10 minutes, it got much worse. She makes a mockery of her mother and even the guests. It was so raunchy, something I would expect to see on HBO. Alexis hinted that she has "therapistS"...making sure the audience heard her pluralize the term. I doubt this show will last. While I laughed at what they were saying at the same time feeling uncomfortable seeing a daughter degrade her mother that way. No wonder she's divorced, she's really screwed up....but can you blame her for having Martha Stewart as a mother?

Oh I'll take pictures....just hope we can get a good view. I really don't like floor seats because of all the people standing all night. Should be so much fun though. Our youngest son (he's almost 24 yrs) is going with us. All his friend hate country...can you imagine? LOL...

I really like him but I saw parts of it on t.v. last night and I thought he sounded horrible. Did he sound better in person?

We went to one of his concerts years ago at Texas Stadium in Dallas. We were so far away he looked like a speck and I have never been that hot in my life.

We do enjoy the concerts! We don't do much else anymore but this is something we all enjoy. LOL @ you Vannie! I just hope we're not too close tonight....sometimes that is bad too with so many people standing all night. DH has to sit for most of it because of his bad back....I told him he'll get to see alot of dancing hineys tonight!

Oh you will have fun!!!!!!
Shortly before he got legal with Trisha both DD's and I went to him!(she was there too for a couple songs) His prices were so reasonable for tickets and he put on a heck of a good show!!! It was fantastic! DS said he didn't think he wanted to go when we asked how many tickets we should get...then before we left the motel room that night both him and DH were wishing they could go!
He has so much energy and literally ran from one end of the stage to the other!! We were on the floor I dunno how far back, no problems seeing him til everyone started standing on the folding chairs! LOL

I can't wait to hear all about it!! Please post again Vikki and share your evening with us!
