Hi Linda, The surgery didn't take place. Friday was a calamidy of errors. URGH Medical staff!! All the DRs need to get on the same page. Thanks for thinking of DH.

I love it!! How did you know that purple is my favorite color? And I just love flutterbys! You are so sweet thank you so much. I can't wait for a swap so I can wear it. I just showed it to DH..."it's not black and there are no motorcycles on it!" Men! Ya gotta love em. M

Katkin, I haven't seen MsMarion in a few weeks. I called her right after Ricky's swap but that was the last time I talked to her. I emailed you to let you know the stick that I thought was dead (Maid of Orleans Jasmine) was growing a limb! So will have to get that to you!

Martian, Felix? Really? I guess the purple stem is kinda bizzare. Don't know why it went from green to purple, but I kinda like it! Kara, it's in a tight spot, but I tried to get my nose near. Usually cereus have fragrance. It was after some rain and it had just opened. I detected no smell from as close as I could get, but I bet later in the night it was heavenly.
