Dax, I like that witches'broom on the 'Silberlocke' very much! Is it possible that a closer pic can be taken by Dennis? Very interesting and a nice discovery!

Oh my, the lists. I've always been a listmaker, inherited that gene from dear ole Dad. Since I am hosting the holiday this year, I have lists, on the back sides of the paper I have a sub-list, and sadly, the lists are now broken down by indoor/outdoor, every room, menu/food/tasks and the pages have numbers, lol. I cannot function if I don't make lists. It is so satisfying when I can scratch something off one of these lists... Can you tell that I have an over-the-top certifiable type A personality? Really, I am pinch hitting for my SIL as her babysitter quit unexpectedly. Babies at 6 mos. are very fun, but also very distracting, lol. BTW, while tidying up DD's room this morning at 5:45 a.m. (baby naps in there), guess what I came upon on her desk....old lists! Apparently, the apple didn't fall too far from the tree. oakley - I collect post-its too. All colors, lined, unlined, themed, you name it, I probably have it when it comes to the post-it products. My current favorite is the bright lime green. Also collect different dispensers for said post-its. Along with the standard size post-it (3"x3") I buy the larger lined post-it memo pads (not for my "lists", since they don't make lined post-its large enough, YET), as well as post-it flags which I use for dogearing cookbooks, magazine articles, etc. In the spirit of full disclosure, I will confess that each serving piece I've washed so far in prep for the upcoming holiday have a post-it attached with what's going to go into the dish at Easter. I am curious about houseshoes as well? Never heard the term, guessing it may be regional for casual shoes or slippers? Just taking a stab in the dark. I am in serious need of a therapist or Aracept, probably both.

I have always preferred the GW format over facebook, so I agree... Pretty cool to get that Glory days feel back on the board. Dennis actually posted several pictures of 'The Blues' on fb, and it got something like 160 likes and tons of comments. I have to believe that is the best single specimen I have ever seen. Ditto on 'Glauca Pendula', unreal! Some of the other real stand out's for me are 'Stanley Mountain' , 'Buffy', and 'Mittenwalt'... It would be great if they allowed Buffy to be shared, that's too nice to only be in 2 gardens!! It needs to be in mine as well : ) Much appreciated for taking the time to post these photos. Really one of the premier gardens in the country/world.

Thank you everyone for sharing their ideas and comments....it really has given me thoughts to think about......as an update .....I was scheduled for a nerve block today so I spoke to my doctor about my fears. She was terrific. She explained why the specific things that I am afraid of might happen ...and I know she's telling me the exact reason because I researched it. She also told me that she is an "approved" doctor by the manufacturer of Botox ... Allergan....told me specific sites to look at....but she told me she understands my fears and it's totally up to me.....she will honor whatever I want.....she just wants me to feel better❤️ So today I had a bupivacaine nerve block ....injections into my forehead only, since she didn't want to overwhelm me, and because that is where my pain mostly always is, behind my eyes. There were little stabs, no big deal, and then some stinging with the anesthetic being injected.....not a big deal either compared with a migraine....in my opinion. My head already feels lighter!! It's amazing what it feels like to NOT have a headache....I don't think I know the feeling:). Each person responds differently to these nerve blocks regarding how long they last but I am thinking positively:).
