Guess who came to visit last night?

12 years ago

In my dreams.... Sarah Richardson and Tommy! It was a very vivid and long dream but of course I only remember the good bits. In the dream I was so happy she was visiting now because the bedroom had been remodeled two years ago and the kitchen just this past Spring/Summer. Of course, as soon as I showed her the bedroom, it had somehow reverted to its pre-remodeled state! The beautiful Smokey Olive paint on the walls was now fading and "dripping" down, the plaster and lathe could be seen again on the ceiling and above the tall door. Tommy nodded toward the bottom wall of the loft (which I don't have anymore - long story-it was a dropped ceiling area)and showed me bare foot prints going up it and then as he surveyed the rest of the room he said, "Something stinks in here". There was alot more but I won't tell it since this post is way OT anyhow, only to say that I ended up throwing cans of soup at some home invaders while Sarah and Tommy were there and I had a great aim.

Too funny schoolhouse! Wonder what is all means...

I love Sarah and Tommy, but haven't dreamt about them before:)
Would be a 'dream' IRL though if they would come to my house...I need help!

Hahahaha I love it. My best dream was going to the house of seven gables in Salem Ma. and my tour guide was Felix the cat. It was the most graphic and hysterically funny dream I've ever had.

Lumpy, you are right. The pink one in the back is Encyclia Cordigera. The tag says it smell like chocolate... I love chocolate scent! The Catt. in front is polka dot " Nalo". It is fragrant too. In this group, only the Dancing Lady " Sweet Ears" does not have scent. but it has pretty flowers... Majority of them have very healthy roots, only couple that start to have root rot issue. In general, these orchid are in much better/healthier condition than most moth orchids I have seen at Lowe's My guess is that these are U.S grow orchids, not like other orchids which may be shipped from overseas. I just repotted them with much fast drain orchid mix. Pray they'll survive. Sunshine, now you've mentioned it, I recall that I have never seen Lowe's carries B. nodosa and Maxillaria either till I bought them. All I've seen were the Catt. and Oncid. too just like what you've seen. Maybe these were in the back roll that I could have missed it. There is a very good orchid farm here, I usually get my orchids from them , not from Lowe's. I will browse for a bargain but will not seriously pay an orchid with full price at Lowe's. It may well be those Catt. and Oncid. etc. more showy flowers caught my eyes. Anyways, Lowe's must have had it somewhere. You might check your local Lowe's store again to see if you've missed them.

I was very fortunate to meet Karen and her DH this weekend. Karen and I shared some great conversation and some excellent wine and it was perfect. Linda, I can only hope Karen likes the coasters as much as you...lol. You might try Dillards :) Thanks again for the hospitality, Karen and I will look forward to meeting up again....now, I have 2 reasons to go to Lake Charles...lol. I think we will have to get Maggie and Aleksi together sometime, too! Brenda

Glad you were looking closely, Dink. Our town has finally decided to change some 2-way stops to 4-way stops hoping to stop so many accidents in that area. I don't know if that will help or not, but I doubt it. Ruthie, I love your reply to DH about the other idiots! I had a routine eye exam last week, and when I mentioned the incident about hitting a rut in the road, the Tech asked me if I think I am a safe driver. Of course I said Yes. Good Heavens, would she expect any body to say No, I'm not! Stay safe, every one. Sue

I don't know what the dream meant, but it was probably caused by the corned beef sandwich I had last night around 10pm.
