lol Stick around Ditchy,, You'll find we send out gifts just on whim here,, Sometimes when I'm out shopping for something not related to the gardenhelper,, I'll see something that I read someone here was looking for and couldn't find,, or something someone mentioned they like to have,, but just never got it for them selves,, if it's within my budget I'll pick it up and send it, we send cards out too,, on a just because we're thinking of someone,, Dodge is real good at that,, and her cards come at just the right time! We try our best to keep our spirits up around here life is hard enough as is, it's good to have a place that is comfort food for the soul, as I've often termed the GH as it relates to me,, anyway, :wink:

neeneeHa Ha Ha

hey you guys--I got to open MY package!!!....Santa Dodge has sent a pkg to my house as well.

She sent me some cuttings of her Red and Peach Christmas cactus--and a Burgundy Oxallis bulb (Charmed Wine) as well.
Both are planted and hopefully will grow well for me.
\
if they make it, and do well--I will take photo's


Thank you Barb. kissie

Lesson to self. ALWAYS open before reading what's written on the package.

I don't have the tree up yet, And may not if the Boys aren't going to be here,,,,,, Right now it's just sitting on the fireplace 'bench' I will probably make a tree out of Christmas cards like I did one other year why I just can't see going up to the attic and pulling everything down just for Dwight and I. I did put a Bow on the box tho,, thumbup lol
