The bloom is wilting and giving up after 12 hours of full bloom that measured a full 10″ across. This has been such fun to share with all of you and I have loved the comments from those of you who are familiar with this plant. I hope to have some “starts” for sale at our Big Event next summer.
Abby, Pam’s golden doodle, spent the weekend with us and she and Telly had a rousing good time!
BC was actually sitting in this large pot of succulents!
Sunday night has become my favorite night for TV — I have been glued to the series The Bible and will buy the DVD when available. I even gave up The Good Wife for these 5 weeks and I love that show, too. After The Bible comes The Vikings which is also excellent even though quite violent at times. Are any of you watching these series?
I spent the weekend watching March Madness, too, so today is my day to really move in to the new living room. Pictures to follow — thanks for keeping up with this blog. I always love to read your comments!
Hi Mary, Love that bloom! I would buy one for my husband if I didn’t live in Ohio! Our kitten, Squeak, sat in my brand new beautiful Christmas cactus last year. It’s still fine although a little flat in the middle! LOL. Thanks for sharing all of your remodeling. It is a challenge, but worth it. Stay warm in this lovely Spring(?) weather. Diane. Ps. Squeak and your Millie are twins!
Thanks, Diane — I knew I recognized Squeak’s name. Millie is close to being my favorite!
That is some flower – fun to see the different stages. I LOVE “The Vikings”! And “The Goode Wife”.
Cat in the plant – darling!
I missed the good shows….Mary, post when you first find a good one. My husband, Bob, passed away suddenly in October. I didn’t get a chance to say good by…he arrested at home age 64. He always found the great shows for me….just one of the wonderful things I love about Bob. He also loved quilts.. He didn’t piece or quilt, but he loved the choosing of fabrics. He was my big encourager….finish that log cabin! Sorry, I didn’t start out to post about my sadness, but it just came out. blessings, Lee
I love all your blogs and pictures! Wanted to add a program on History Channel that I discovered this weekend – “Men Who Built America”. May be a rerun but shows what a magnificent country this is with all the inventions, discoveries and progress. Have to share a dog story. I have a 1 yr. old little rescue and everything goes in the mouth. The other day he was out going “poo poo” and I noticed he couldn’t get it off of him. I went out to assist and had to give it a yank to get it out. Discovered at the end was a threaded needle! He had swallowed that evidentally with no problem and went through his whole system and came out embedded in his stool! Wow was I grateful! Don’t even want to think about what could have happened if it got stuck inside him! He obviously had found it in the sewing room carpet. Now I keep the door closed and vaccum before the dogs can go in each time. You can’t be too careful. Maryjane
I love getting all your blogs and pictures! I wanted to add a good series to your History Channel favorites. Discovered this weekend , “Men Who Built America.” May be a rerun. So interesting and shows what a magnificent country this is with all the inventions and discoveries.
I’ve been watching the Vikings, although they almost lost me last week when they invited the captive priest to join them for a three-some–yikes!!
