Aloe Christmas Carol
Q
Comments (16)
bmock, It sounds like you rescued them in the nick of time. Hopefully they weren't in the dark and sopping wet for too long. It doesn't look like it though. If you didn't find any rotted roots or anything to say otherwise, I'm sure they will be fine! I bought a handful last week, most of them hadn't been watered at all even though they apparently arrived a few days before I bought them (a couple of the BBS vendors/cashiers recognize me it seems lol). It was long enough that someone could have given them a drink at least. I looked again today just to make sure I didn't miss somebody (hey, sometimes a second look finds you something you didn't see the first time), and they're still bone dry. Lots of rain here today too. I picked up another Kalanchoe blossfeldiana and a Rebutia muscula today. I've been on the lookout for that Rebutia for years. I only see one maybe every other year it seems and every time it either has glued flowers and/or they've spray painted it orange (I'm not sure which offense is worse lol). I didn't need another Kalanchoe, I already have a K. blossfeldiana and a K. porphyrocalyx my Mom bought me. I think I'm done for the year. I've run out of room in the windowsill and my Aloe hasn't even arrived yet lol. I can't squeeze anymore Houseplants in near the window either. And although I've had some bad luck with Cacti outside, but I'm going to have to chance it again. I moved them earlier due to the rain just because I just repotted them and didn't want them to get wet (trying to allow the roots to heal). I've stuck all the succulents in the windowsill and they're almost touching. Oh well. Time to buy a house. LOL, jk. Planto

Rod Serling's Christmas Carol

Just answered on the other thread about it. It was not as creepy as I'd have expected. Basically it was UN propaganda. Definitely an unusual version, a number of fairly big (at the time) stars. We did feel it was historically and politically, a very important show to see, but not particularly a 'feel good' Christmas movie.

Do you go Christmas Caroling???
Q
Comments (8)
This appears to be a lost tradition around here as well, and so sad to see it go. We have our symphony chorale perform carols in the park for about an hour before the parade each year and people love it, they sing along whether Lucille Ball or Barbra Streisand! And it is all beautiful! Our sorority used to go every year but it stopped about 10 years ago (long after any of our college days). One of the hubbies even used to rig up lights to his pick up truck. We all piled in the back of trucks and would ride thru neighborhoods singing.....I guess we stopped when we got too old to get in and out of the trucks easily.
