I get for the girls & thier children, that makes my Christmas, I have 2 gifts to get & thats the games for my GS's psp
oh next month I have everyones Birthdays covered all the way till April, the best Christmas gifts are things that you don't ask for, my DD's are always trying to get me to tell them what I want, what I want are them to be happy, but one thing I did tell my DD is that she can get me Tootsie Brug, I am trying to get that one for my friend
Elizabeth
new pic's of angels moonlight
What's a Tootsie Brug?/ My nickname is "Tootie"
Bet you all didn't know that , did you??
Charleen
Dee
now that is too too funny, I caught that, you should have seen the 5ft brass giraff's that I sold, you would've love them
I sold them for $300.00, I paid $80.00 for them at an estate auction
Elizabeth
I usually tell them the same that there's nothing that I need, but when they insist that I give them hints...it's always garden stuff.
I absolutely love Christmas with the grandkids. It's the highlight of the year for me.Dee
I wondered what Blogging was now we know.
Charleen
Oh, I bet they were beautiful. Girl, you have an eye for a bargain, don't cha. I love auctions and yard sales. Haven't been to a good auction in years.
Dee
Charlene
Tootsie Brug is a georgeous double Brug, you can check the plant files, if they don't have it google it, I will probably have to wait till next spring, anyway if I got another Brug where would I put it, but fandango, that's another story, maybe I have a line on that one, keep your fingers crossed
Elizabeth
I like that name "FAndango" It sounds pretty.
Got to close early, got to get up early tomarrow.
So I guess my "blogging" is over for tonight til
tomarrow.
So Goodnight, My friends, til tomarrow.
Thanks fora great evening.
Charleen
Dee
I have been going to auctions since I was 15yrs old, that would be 45yrs, the whole thing about that is not to be caught up in the moment, that's where they get you, I love bargains, I love to haggle, I've got some of my best deals that way
there always the bottom price
Elizabeth
I got my fingers crossed for ya.I think that when I google Fandango last time, that Alice Harris, had it listed, but you had to check with her for price and to see if it was in stock..
Dee
Charlene
sleep well, talk to you tommorrow, my friend, thank you for a lovely night
Elizabeth
Dee
other people have it as well, I like Alice, she's a fine lady, she does have some wonderful Brugs, I think you have to email her at her site, to see if it's available
Elizabeth
Elizabeth do you have Shredded White? I like it because it's different, and I read that it's a good grower.I have a trade arranged for a cutting of it.
I am not a good haggler, but I wish I was.I know the last time I went to an auction, it was getting harder and harder to get good buys.Some of those people bid rediculous prices on stuff..
Dee
Dee
I have shredded mess, is that the same one, it didn't get very big, I think I had it in the shade, I think it needs full sun
it's suppose to bloom white
Elizabeth
Night Charleen
Dee
Was it Wretched Mess? Isn't that a funny name for a brug?
Dee
Elizabeth, what color is silver dawn?
Dee
Dee
they call it that because sometimes the bloom looks that way, but not all the time, it is a funny name, I would hate too count all the Brugs that are out there, every year, there are so many new one's, I grew one out that isn't named yet
I would like to name Notasha, after my oldest GD, I still can't believe she's sweet 16, where did the time go
Elizabeth
I know, my olderst grandson is 19...seems like yesterday when he was born.
what does the brug that you want to name Notasha, look like? That's a very pretty name.Dee
Dee
I am not sure, I think it may be Orange, I just got that one about a month ago, I have several new ones I just listed a few
it is in the GH, I think I will keep it growing under the lights, I have stuff to spray it for aphids, they're the worst in winter
if any of your brug leaves looks like it has sawdust on them, that's aphids
Elizabeth
Dee
it grew tall this summer but didn't bloom, next spring I'll know, I had several that didn't bloom yet
Elizabeth
I don't think I have ever had a problem with aphids in the house, but last year I had a horrible time with spider mites.Right now,for the cuttings, I have an electric heater going, because that bathroom get chilly. I also have a humidifier going, and a fan on low, just to keep the air moving. And I am watching for them little critters...I hate em.
Elizabeth I'm getting so sleepy..got up at 4:00 this morning...so I'm gonna call it a night..will talk to ya tomorrow. Have a good night!
Dee
Dee
goodnight, I'll talk to you tommorrow
Elizabeth
Good morning, The sun is shinning, but cold. temp is 34.
I'm a weem! I'm ready for Warmth again.
You all mentioned some pretty brugs. I will have to
go on BGI and look at them. Especially Wretched Mess.
Sounds interesting. I still like Fandango. Got to check it out.
Charleen
Mornin' Charleen. You still around?
Dee
Dee, I went to Dr. Colestrol was up, She should stop changing things around and label medicines so I know what i am taking.
I got it straight now, back on correct meds, threw away what I didn't need. Life and times of an old lady. Long as I keep going that
is what is the main thing. Temp up to 61. Getting warmer. got to go look at my morning Glory tree to see if it is still blooming, and
of coarse the Brug kids. Got to check on them. Charleen
Oh yeah, I forgot about your dr's appointment. Glad that you got your meds straightened around. It is 63 here, right now. I went out for a little while and picked up some odds and end pots and checked to see how the new plants that I put in a month or so ago, are doing. Everything looks great..need to mow(shread and pick up) leaves again..lol
Dee
Just replanted some red naked ladies.
Had some here and some there, so decided into the new flower patch they would go. Got DH a Pomagranite in there, your hardy banana
and now the Naked ladies. They better get some clothes on, they are going to freeze their bu lbs off. ^_^
Got to pick up some leaves from canna and brug cuttings. The baby's out front got watered, so they should be set up. No MG tree blooms yet.
Just a matter of time.
Charleen
Elisabeth, I saw Fandango, Tootsie and Shredded white.
They were all beautiful. Love them all.
Especially Shredded white. What a Flower!!!
Charleen
Ladies
I have worked all day on the basement, house & yard, I got my washer fixed, have a load of laundry going as we speak
I have got down to the basement take Pic's & the GH pic's, I don't want to tease Dee so much, she will flip when she get to see my giraff, & rooster, I will have to hire an armed guard
Elizabeth
I have a German shepard/labrador mix that looks sort of tough. Want t borrow my Missy?.
She is a sweet dog. Even loan you the side -kick. If the pay is good. ^_^
Now aren't they vicious looking???
Charleen
This is the GH
Elizabeth
Giraff
I bet I would have them eating out of my hand. I'll stop and get them McD's on the way. They would be my best friends for life...lol...They look awful hungry to me...lol..lol..
Dee
Rooster
Charlene
if I had those 2 people would still rob my house, I'll stick with my attack cat
Elizabeth
I do love the giraffe, but I don't think I will cross the rooster. He looks like the white ones that used to chase us, everywhere..lol
I love the greenhouse! What size is it Elizabeth. The one that I used to have was 8X12. Look at all those beautiful, happy plants!
Dee
Dee
No you can't have my giraff & rooster, sometimes they're a pain, they take up space, that I need for my plants
Elizabeth
Look what my cousin sent me from Anchorage. Aren't they beautiful?. i figured penguins, not Flamingos, I love them.
Dee, are Elizabeth's pets pretty and the Giraffe is eating a bloom. how cute can you get? Now I got Flamingos. Yee haa!!!!
How about that greenhouse??? I still like the Basement paradise best.
Charleen
