Oh No! What Have I Done Wrong?
Comments (4)Ariel, That is definitely Spider mite damage to the leaves. Nothing you have done wrong. Treat it now and then again in 5-7 days. I have been using Brian's mix which is 1Litre of water 1Tbsp liquid dish soap 1Tbsp olive oil mix this in a spray bottle and shake vigorously while using to keep all dispersed in water. Do this in the evening (No sun on it while it is on) and spray off with plain water in the morning or even a few hours later. Spray top and undersides of leaves and even the caudex. They are hard to see and the spray is a contact solution. Some use just water and dish soap, but I like Brian's because the oil will smother the mites and they cannot get it off. Works well with aphids also. Rick...See MoreOh and I thought I was done!
Comments (6)Oh Wow...that tree is a 'Blast From The Past' !! I made one of those in the late 60's! It WAS so easy to do and drew lots of compliments. It also reminds me of all the 'quirky' decorations that were being created around that time. TFS this it was fun to see. jane...See MoreOH BOY.. What have I done now?
Comments (2)Amy I figured it out by accident. It was a gif. I tried another & they work fine even SBP. I'm not sure how long the demo will work though. Thanks for the answer & It probably would have told me what was wrong. I think it would have set off a lite in my head. *G* Some problems are so simple but so hard to figure out. My D drive isn't a cd rom drive. My drive is in 2 parts. My CD rom is G. I have A drive which is the floppy.. C main drive.. D 2nd drive.. E a zip drive I have had forever which I had moved from my old puter.. F burner.. G cd rom... F which is the external drive for the camera. I don't use that camera much as my late husband bought a Sony shortly before he died. I have to label the drives to keep up with them. I have room for 1 more..now what can I put there LOL...See MoreOh Parma-- now you have done it!
Comments (6)The lonnnnnng wait for your table is a little bit of a deal breaker-- but not completely. I am still all over the place with the pieces I like-- some have french lines (but the more simple french style) and well-- I love the samurai line too. How funny is that-- going with asian style from a french company??? I also love the secretary desk but I suspect it is going to be so far out of budget that I will have to wait. Yes, the chest that didn't fit upstairs is the one I am going to test the waters on returning. I do love it but it just doesn't work for me on the first floor. I could move it to the dining room but it will be the same there-- too big and not functional. It was $1400 so that's like a whole chair in the budget. I can definitely fill in and find other stuff at furniture store #1. They don't carry bad manufacturers-- just not the ones that are wowing me. They carry Bernhardt, Hickory White, Leathercraft (and a couple of other mid to high range leather companies), Lexington, Hammary. I have found some occasional tables and even some artwork I like there. I still may end up getting the HW buffet-- because of the credit. If I must, I don't think it would be horrible. It is very nice also and I'd select a custom finish. Funny, last night I had one of my inspiration photos up-- and it was so comforting to me. The chairs are so much less expensive than I have been looking at and I keep wondering if I shouldn't go that direction and dump my money into really nice casegoods. Wouldn't that be funny though, PB rattan chairs with a leather sofa and pricey buffets and secretaries. But that's me-- I am currently wearing a tshirt and $800 bracelet. hahah just seems to suit me. Wow.. I typed a whole bunch. Sorry to drag you down my rabbit hole of decor chaos... but you really inspired me and brought back my spark with the FH. Tonight is my niece's birthday-- we were going to show Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants (in advance of the new one coming out next week) but she changed her mind and we'll watch Martian Child. She said "Aunt Beth, I LOVE LOVE LOVE that movie and I want everyone else to see it so that they don't always think of themselves." awww ha.. this is pretty funny coming from a little princess with a fairly priviledged life but I love the outlook on life that she is developing. It's a John Cusack film. If you haven't seen it, it is quirky but very sweet. In two weeks we'll do Nim's Island another movie she loved. It will be our big end of the summer party with light up leis and tiki glasses filled with mocktails and fruit kabobs. Last year we did a dress up Grease party with burgers and fries and ice cream sodas. The backyard theater was really a great splurge-- the kids LOVE it and it gives them something to do that is relatively inexpensive and entertains the young kids and the teens (not to mention the adults). I have a blow up 9 x 12 screen and a projector-- and of course the professional popcorn popper. That's pretty much all you need. OK.. I am sitting here chatting away and I need to get shopping, wrapping, cleaning and baking. (Showered and dressed would be good too ha!) Thanks for indulging me if you made it this far ;)...See Moreusagigreenpaw
