Comments (4)Julie: Your plant is a Rose Easter Cactus, Hatiora (Rhipsalidopsis) rosea. It is a true cactus, but a jungle cactus as opposed to a desert cactus. So they can handle some shade quite well, and prefer a richer soil, though it should be well draining, than a desert cactus. They also require more water than a desert cactus except for a dormancy period in winter. That being said, I think it is limp because you overwatered it. After flowering I would probably take it out of the pot and check the root system for rot, and repot, maybe in a slightly smaller clay pot with a well draining mix. Hope this helps.

Comments (8)DD makes skirts out of silk ties...here are her directions: Step 1 Measure the size of your hips by wrapping a measuring tape around the fullest part of your hips, where you would like the skirt to fall. This length will determine how many ties you will need to form your skirt. Step 2 Determine the desired length for your skirt. Some women prefer longer skirts while others want knee length or mini skirts. Because most ties taper, you will need more ties depending on the length. Step 3 Lay the ties so that the bottom of them will be the bottom of your skirt. This will help keep the a-line shape. Arrange the ties in an aesthetic pattern. Placing the ties side-by-side, overlap the entire edge of the ties by 1/8 inch and pin them together. Step 4 Make a 1/8 inch wide zigzag stitch to sew the overlapped section of the ties together. Begin from the bottom of the tie and sew to your desired length. Continue with the overlapped sections of the other ties. Step 5 Wrap the sewn ties around you to determine how many ties you will need to add until you reach your desired measurement. Step 6 Determine your desired length by holding the skirt up to your body. With a fabric market, mark each tie one inch above the desired length. Cut off the tops of each tie at the mark. Make a zigzag stitch 1/8 inch below the cut to prevent the fabric from fraying. Step 7 Fold the top of the skirt down and hand sew a straight stitch 1/2 inch from the folded edge. This will secure the folded edge to the inside of the skirt and will create a nicer edge at your waistband. Step 8 Sew a zipper in between two of the ties and sew the rest of the skirt shut. Sew a hook and eye at the top (waistband area) of the zipper to keep the top edge closed nicely. ....See Moreanother missing dll file
Comments (20)In a way this is funny.. guess who wrote that post but then I couldn't find it..I figured they didn't put it on as I tried to put in the urls but they didn't work..I did try ignore before but it wouldn't let me..after several tries just now it did. I am still having problem with it saying I'm not connected to the INTERNET..I'll try to work through that somehow. A couple of years ago my son worked with them some on the skins. He may have been as much a problem as help.. who know. They were good to him & kind. They did use several of his ideas. They have gone beyond his knowledge now. Before this version his name was also in the credits for the skins. Maybe tomorrow my son can help me now..(also maybe not) I believe he was the one who figured out IE8 was part of the problem with updates..at least one of them :) He lives in VA so isn't here to help me physically. I guess Weather Watcher has a special spot in my heart. I'll let U know if I get it working. Dar...See MoreAnother lady I miss here is
Comments (36)I think the internet is changing, and GW has been promising to update the forums for a long, long time, but never has. As long as they have such old-fashioned forums, people will leave for the newer, fancier, easier to share places like FB. I personally like the old-style forums, but a lot of people want to evolve. Plus, the demographics on the sites are totally different. Facebook is mostly under 30 and GW is mostly over 50. The under-30's don't even know what a kitchen table is, or the significance of talking around the kitchen table. They're more into texting from Starbucks. I wonder what will happen to GW when it's main demographic dies off. I know that's morbid, but that's the way it is. If most of us are over 50, then eventually, health and life in general will take its toll. Plus, in today's world, a lot of people who were home all day and had time to post have had to go back to work and probably don't feel like posting afterwards. I know I don't post much because I'm just too tired to socialize after working all day. People come and go from forums. I've run a bunch of them back when I was a housewife and had more time. I really think they are like everything else in life, and change as people's lives change....See Moremorz8 - Washington Coast
