Thank you all again....Just been "puttering around" this morning. Playing plants....my most FAVORITE thing to do. I am quite tickled as out of 4 cuttings from my Hibiscus 1 of them had roots! The other 3 didn't fare very well and are now compost material but one of them had some nice roots which made my day as I can't root ANYTHING! Prepared a gallon milk jug with bat guano and lime pellets to sit and stew for plant tea. Hoping this will help some of my babies.

Drilled a hole in my new plant pot/pedestal that I purchased on E-Bay (I can't wait for you all to see it). Hoping my Adenium will come in today. Purchased it from the Plant Ranch on E-Bay and plan to leave honest feedback here regarding it when it comes in. I am putting the Adenium in my new pot and will post a picture when I have it all together.

My dear son cleaned out his car today and needless to say left me with 4 loads of laundry. I told him that was his birthday gift from me *lol*. It's fun having sharing a birthday with your son. This is the first year he has offered to do anything for MY birthday and invited me out to dinner. I think he's really maturing now and thinking of others....boy the phases teenagers go through. I told him 1 more year (when he turns 18) he will be a "guest" here and better start appreciating things a little more than he does *lol* What a mean mom huh?

Here is a picture of my handsome lad....I love him so much.....such a gift from God. I love BOTH my children with all my heart but when you have one on your birthday....it's kind of like we read eachothers minds before we even say a word. When he was born I was a single mom for 2 1/2 years so we are extremely close. Each one of them means something different to me. My daughter is the twinkle in my eye as she is just so happy go lucky and loves to "cuddle" and be rubbed. She's always happy...just like her dad.

Anyways.....I'll write more soon so that you don't all fall asleep at once *lol*
