Good evening everyone
Here are photo's of the snow here. I wish it were warmer, but it's cold
Elizabeth
Thank you, Karen.
The Snow is pretty, but so cold, it's not even winter yet, I sure hope this is the extent of it usually January & February we get the really heavy snowfall
Elizabeth
Charlen
Karen is the best, I wish you could meet her in person, she's more like a little sister than a best Friend
Elizabeth
Elizabeth, anyone who loves my longears are great with me. It was pretty today just cool, in the low 50's Calling for rain tomarrow. Got food down for the critters so at least they can eat.

it was not so bad today as long as the Sun was out, but tonight it is Cold, 51 degrees you gotta love it, I remember in 1991
we had 51degrees in December, the last few years, we were really lucky too have 40 degrees, in December
I am going too try my Brugs clippings with bottom heat, I'll let you know how it goes, Hey have you heard from Dee? I really
miss her when she's not on here, I know she has had trouble with her internet service, I so wanted too wish her a Merry
Christmas & a very Happy New year
Elizabeth

Crit

Kenboy I recently saw the photo of your Orange Sunshine in a hanging basket and it's quite beautiful! My Dad saw the picture and told me that if I get that Brug that I should make something like that for up at the pool or for out front of our place. We have lot of hooks out front that were installed by my Nana.
Gosh it got up to high 50's today. That snow is supposed to b e here, for Christmas. Ya gotta give it up, Elizabeth.
Debra
you can have all the Snow that you want, I am sure we'll have more, I am so ready for Spring, maybe since we have had an
early winter, we'll have an Early Spring
Elizabeth
is anyone waiting up for the eclipse tonight? it's suppose at 1:30am i will take a photo so no one misses it
Elizabeth
If I can stay up I'm going to watch it. Unfortunatly we have a cloud cover right now and I doubt it will lift beween now ands when it happens. Around 11:30-12:30 here in Portland, Oregon.
U know, I want to see it .. do not know if I can stay awake, tho.
Mstish & Dabra
I waited up, but fell asleep before I could take a photo, I hate that when it happens, hopefully someone else got a photo
Elizabeth
I had crashed by 10 thirty, and then crashed tonight after dinner. I am supposed to be baking and stuff. Brugs are really growing downstairs and I am happy about that.
My late nights were over a couple decades ago. I made it to 10:15. lol - I woke up witha book in my face and the lights on about 4:30am.

Hello everyone
I thought I needed too check in too see how everyone is doing? I need too get caught up, I have a DD that had a Birthday on the 23rd of December, I still make a cake even though she's grown with children of her own, she had Christmas dinner
at her house today, it was wonderful, the Grands opened their presents, it was great, now back too taking care of my plants, tommorrow I'll post a photo of my Blooming Brug in the basement, I love winter Blooms, I hope everyone has a very
Merry Christmas
Elizabeth
Good evening everyone
here is the Blooming Brug, in the basement, I love these Blooms, reminds of Summer. I hope everyone had the best ever
Christmas, got too do some after Christmas shopping, the wind came out of no where it was so cold, I am glad I had my hat & gloves on, got some great deals, but I had too wait in line, it reminded me of why I stay at home when it's cold out
Elizabeth
I hope everyone enjoys these Blooms as much as I do
Elizabeth
Just gorgeous Elizabeth!
Got to love those winter blooms!
Karen
Karen
it's amazing how dark pink it is,I am so glad you like it, I can't wait too see your Blooming Brugs, the starts you gave me
are doing great, next year is going too be a great year for Brugs, for both of us
Hugs
Elizabeth
That is a beautiful bloom. I bet is smells good too. I hope You have more blooms to gaze at this winter. 64 more days until Spring.
beautiful bloom elizabeth,it looks like a very dark pink.
i hope ur right debra,i'm tired of the cold and so is arthur.
retta
In Texas it is 83 days until Spring and 78 days until average last frost. I would give anything to live up north where Spring comes early, lol.
HUH? is it 94 days? March 21st, right? Dec to Jan month one, Jan to Feb month two, Feb to March month three.. That makes month one almost over, please tell me I am counting right. *Whine*
Spring begins on March 20 this year, which is 11 weeks and 6 days. Our average last frost is March 15 but I have seen it as early as Feb. 15 and as late as April 15.
OH.. same here Ken, Sometimes last frost is May. Just wishing I guess.
YeeeHawwwww!! Blooming Brugs on Christmas. How great is that???
Yep, we have been having winds too. Got a little Snow for Christmas day. So it is about gone already, my kind of snow☺ Hope everyone hada wonderful Christmas Day, I knw I did.
Wishing you a Healthy happy new year too.....
Charleen
Good Morning everyone
Debra, January seems the longest, February goes by much quicker, the March takes forever, just keep warm, keep those
light's growing, the Brug Blooms have a Fragrance but it's a much lighter scent in the basement,
Ken, in Texas, I thought the winter was over in February, I guess it depends on what part of Texas you live in
Retta, it would be nice too have some warm weather, our weather is saying 54 degrees for Friday & Saturday, we sure
could use a Break
Charlene, How are your plants doing in your GH? it was so nice too have anything Bloom, Yes we had a wonderful Christmas, when the company installs my insulation Thursday it will be a very Happy New, it will be so nice having a really
warm house with lower heat bills, I just got 2 new windows on my back porch on December 22nd, I sure can tell the difference, wish you a very Healthy Happy New year
Elizabeth
Got o go look at them. I know the heater is going. Supposed to be warmer today, Lordy, I hope so. tired of the cold. I'm going to try to remember the cold when it gets hot this summer. Maybe it won't seem so bad.

Patti
;D yer welcome. Been making seed messes for the past two nights. Someone sent me home with a couple springs of some tiny vining thing, I swear it looks like a pepperomia only teeny tiny. Gee, I hope I can keep it going.
Okay I have Y's that are new downstairs. I think they are confused.
Good Morning everyone
I hope everyone has a Happy Healthy New year, with lots of Brug Blooms, the last couple days I have been working on
my Brugs, I had too pull everything away from the basement walls, then when the insulations company got here yesterday
they said we're doing the walls of the house, nothing in the basement, oh well at least the basement looks better, they
were here from 9:10 am untill 2:30 pm, they did a wonderful job, the house is a lot warmer, it's a great investment, just in time, the coldest weather is January thur March
I think 2011 is going too be a great year for Brugs, I have some new seedling Thanks too a great Lady, they are in front of my new replacement windows, looking great, getting their second set of leaves, Yippee
Elizabeth
