It Feels Different......Like, Maybe, Rain?
Comments (2)Hee hee. Barely. It's really only been about a month since an inch of rain fell here. What I haven't experienced in ages though--maybe since March--is a REAL thunderstorm with big dark clouds, and rain falling really, really hard, and lightning and thunder and wind. Wouldn't that be lovely? I want it all....not just rain or lightning or thunder or wind...I want it all at the same time. I want a good old-fashioned downpour. Will we get it? Based on this year's track record, probably not. But the atmosphere felt so good here today with such good moisture in the air and clouds and cooler air that it makes me believe anything is possible. I ended my lovely day outside with a search/rescue call, and now other depts. are at a grassfire, but we aren't. Tonight I am going to dream about rain falling and soaking the ground in my lawn and garden, and then hopefully tomorrow, my dream comes true! Dawn...See Morefeeling a little blue today....
Comments (16)Thanks, Yacht. Besides that little round lace tablecloth, I also got a lace runner and two lace placemats. Luvs sent me a pair of gorgeous burgundy napkins last year. I have white and beige (two of each, LOL). Any tablesettings I do will never involve more than ONE or TWO, and they'd just be for my Invisible Friends (here). If you knew my two guys, Dad and DH, you'd understand why not for them! LOL Funny story about the pretty beige and sage-y floral napkin with the purple plates. After doing nothing the last year, I'd given up on myself for even trying! So I wasn't going to buy more stuff to NOT use. (but you're so right about us trying and doing better than we could have pre-Forum days, Thanks, I feel better). A few weeks ago I stopped in a new thrift shop and was looking at everything. I passed a bin of cloth napkins and really liked the colors in this one. They had 4, but priced separately as all their napkins were. I picked up just one and when I went to pay, the lady asked me if I was sure I only wanted A napkin. The look on her face nearly made me laugh out loud. I just smiled and said "there's only one of me". I really should have bought a pair tho, LOL. Maybe I'll go back and see if another is still there. My 'new' antique sideboard has now become my Dish Wish cabinet, holding my few little necessary accessories to play with. My little secret as the family already thinks I've lost my marbles. I should be embarrassed to even admit this stuff to you guys, but I'm not. I never had ANY interest in dishes or table-settings till I came here. Its a shame my grandmothers couldn't corral me and teach me some of this stuff. LOL. But they literally couldn't keep me IN the house, unless I was reading. Total Tomboy! hugs, Karen...See MoreIs your Chinese Evergreen (aglaonema) sensitive to even a little cold?
Comments (4)It was an east-facing window, which gets relatively cool sun, so I'm not sure. It takes some time for that room to warm up, even in springtime. I was reading up about Ags and there are certain varieties that tolerate somewhat cooler temperatures, mine being somewhere in the middle range. From what I read in the article, there has been a push to produce hybrid varieties that can stand the cold better, but I do not see that any new types have hit the market yet. Emerald Star and Jewel of India seem to be some of the most cold tolerant varieties, according to this paper, although still probably a bad idea to grow them outside unless you live in South Florida....See MoreMy husband has really hurt my feelings.
Comments (43)USPS tracking still shows my phone pending delivery next week. I had hoped to have it for the weekend to post photos of our YoYo. No such luck. He is unbelievably cute but maybe should have been named CHEWbacca so says my husband. I don't think that I previously posted about an issue with my husband. He is fairly easy going and easy to get along with. Not long ago I did get irritated because he doesn't want to go out much anymore but I do not think I posted about it.I could be wrong?! As a rule I do not post on forums often and when I do its usually because I am upset about something and for whatever reason do not want to discuss it with IRL people. My plan when I post is to take the first few responses and thank the posters for their interest, then move on using their information/help. It never fails as it goes on that so much more gets read into a relationship/friendship and it leaves one to either ignore that response and the responder, or to defend/deny/explain. Anyhoo all is good and we love our big little guy. Thank you all....See Morebiondanonima (Zone 7a Hudson Valley)
