A Gardeners Forum Forums Members History Forum Life 2005 highlights part 2

Yeah, man! I know whatcha mean!
I love that show!

What am I doing on this topic?
I haven't had a "highlight" yet... :rolleyes:
...but the day's not over!

Cindy

Gilmore Girls and Nip/Tuck.........

Gilmore girls and House lol

What is "Gilmore Girls"?
A t.v. show?

Uhhh...time for a "highlight of my day"...
Today I beat my own previous record for number of consecutive days I've stayed alive!


Cindy Faye

being brave enough to pet a caterpillar for the first time ever!

finding that 85% of my cuttings SURVIVED!

I am allergic to catapillar's....

Are you serious????????

My allergist told me I am allergic to a lot of things...(birds in particular)



(I'm scared of them, though.)

No, no test...
I found out the hard way that I was allergic..

I found one of those rust and black fuzzy catapillars,
and I played with his fur/fuzz,
and blew into it to make that fur/fuzz move
up and down.......well, by the time I got back
to the house, I had blown up, little water like blisters,
and itched, itched, itched..
and it kept getting bigger...
and it was on my face and both hands,
and up my arms...

I ended up going to the doctors', for it..
I don't remember much of it, except getting that
way, not how it ended up...

But I know if I pick something up and
accidently touched a catapiller....
like under a tarp or something I've moved
with out seeing it, cause it'll do the same thing again...

Wow...had no idea you COULD be allergic to caterpillars...just never thought about it...that was the same kind I found today. So far so good, no blisters or itches -- I'm not generally allergic to anything though. So, another positive for me then - I pet a caterpillar and found out I'm not allergic to them!

Hmm I dunno how long I can keep this optimism up - not easy for me yaknow

Well...I've never pet a caterpillar...because I'm scared of 'em...so I will never know if I'm allergic or not.

Hey...I have an actual highlight!
I got a package from Vanessa today!

A package of goodies!


Cindy Sue

ohhhhh - do share and tell us what she sent???

Pictures?

Ah that was my highlight yesterday - a package from Vanessa - including some baby spiders...I joked with her that they'd all be dead before she got back online...planted em all right away yesterday - and guess what? All but 2 or 3 black as can be and no sign of life left in em! :p I dunno about this thumb of mine sometimes!

Well that was poopy of me to post on a highlights thread.
hmm....how bout this....
At least 2 or 3 of them are still hangin on!

That's the way, Mary!!!

By the way... I thought you were talking about
REAL baby spiders when I read it!
Forgot she was sending people her baby plants!

highlight today? rain for the 2nd day!! and, my dogs finally decided the dog house was meant for them!! it's only been out there for 3 years our pom likes it, but the other two didn't seem to think they should have to use it :rolleyes: they thought they should be in the house (sometimes they are, but on MY schedule, not theirs)

Oh, Jiffy...rain would be sooo nice! :rolleyes:
It ain't gonna happen here in the near future, though...so I hope to run Andy's water bill up sky high again this month!
Two "present days" in a row!
Yesterday Vanessa sent me some spider babies, and a pint jar of homemade "Red pepper, Garlic and Rosemary Vinaigrette". It is delicious! And, a jar of pepper Jelly.

I took 8th place in a poker tournament got 15.00 dollars for it. Does that count as a highlight? lol.

heck yeah,Tammy.
Good for you.Making money playing a card game?
That is very cool!!!

New couch for me........yay!!!
The ugly one is on my front porch. :rolleyes:

Hey Shari, go put it in the back yard,
fill it with dirt/potting soil and plant some
annuals in it..
Wouldn't that be a hoot!!!???!!!???

My highlight today is that I wrote another episode of Lady Huh today. I hope everyone can find it down there in the artsy *artsy room lol.

Tammy - YOU CRACK ME UP!!!

My third highlight was receiving the hoya cuttings from Dianna (Dixie Angel) later this afternoon in the mail. Thank you sooooo much, Dianna! They are already planted, and in my computer room, so I can think of you everytime I'm in here - which is all the time !

My highlights for the past few weeks are my forum friends.

Lynne sent me some mini zinnia seeds and then coached me on how to send cuttings and seeds through the mail so I could share with my friends.

Cindy sent me some pond plants to help me clear up my little puddle. Hopefully, it will clear up soon and I will be able to add fish.

Dianna

Diana, I have to second that emotion.

I don't know what I'd do without my friends here.
You guys are the only friends I have!
And, you all are the absolute best of the BEST!
Why look anywhere else?



Cindy

my highlight today ~ there were two... first was talking to a very good friend on the phone and the second was when i had to call back, they called me to share the expense!
