I received two really nice, unexpected gifts too ... for being card holder in the November game. It really isn't necessary to send me anything, I love holding the cards and having the fun of playing along!

Imadigger/Eileen sent me a real nice pair of gardening gloves ... Thank You, Eileen! I will certainly get good use of them ... always need gloves!

Ibrabec/Lynn sent me the cutest little Turtle! I planted a little Cryptanthus in it but will probably change it out as the plant grows larger. I'm thinking this little guy would be great for a Chirita tamiana or one of the mini Sinningia's! Thank you Lynn ... I love this cutie that I call "churtle". I love Turtle's! Little turtles, big turtles, land turtles, sea turtles! When my neice was a little girl (back @ 1972) that is how she pronounced the word turtle. She was in the car with me one time and I ran over a turtle in the road, not meaning too ... it was just there and I couldn't go anywhere because of no shoulder on the road, a canal on my side, traffic coming the other direction and cars behind me so I wasn't even able to slow down. I felt so bad as I have always been a huge animal lover and it really hurt when I realized there was a turtle in the road and I couldn't stop in time! My niece kept saying "Aunt Linda, why did you run over that little "churtle"? She was only 3 years old but she knew I was upset and told me she was sorry I ran over the churtle. She kept saying "poor little churtle".
