Hey Thanks for posting some pics ya'll!
I love seeing everyone elses pictures.

Yes, it is FULL of wonderful treasures!
The pics of the plants in the birdroom were taken during this past winter and now most of them are outside for the summer. The birds are always in the house with us where we can enjoy them more.
Liz,
The birds are a wide variety of Singing Canaries, White Doves, Lady Gouldian Finches,Zebra Finches and of course the parrots.Scarlet Macaw,African Gray and my Mini Macw. We refer to them as "THE ZOO CREW".LOL
picturelady,
I love the hammock,it looks so inviting.I just started with some daylilies from the co-op & a few bearded irises,too. Great shots of the beds with your irises blooming! Very pretty.
Lottie
Don't want to forget this bed....plus did I mention I have a few dozen yet in pots!
WOW Ms Critterkeeper, you sure are a critter keeper! Is that a huge sunroom? It looks just great.
Margie, I can't wait to see your daylily beds in flower! They look so pretty.
This is just two of my addictions, and I do have a few more. The one on the bottom is new baby Jezzi, she is 4 months old. The one on top is Chance, he is 11 years old and a real sweetie pie. We got Jezzie a couple of months ago and we are still going through potty training......we take her out at midnight, then at 4 am as soon as dad gets up, 7 am when mom gets up 10am right before Travis leaves for college and so on and so forth......LOL...almost like having kids again....only these grow up faster and love you always no matter what.....LOL.
And two more addictions equally as strong.....LOL
I just love the pics of all of them!
Picturelady, I understand about pots! DBH says I have a Potgarden....lots of them everywhere.Makes it easy if I ever move.lol
Kell, Thank you! Nope, it is not a sunnroom.LOL
It is our 48ftX18ft den/library diningroom combo. One sliding glass door & no windows! There are however,several very large florencent lights...each bird cage has a light, too.
(Nope, it's not that expenxive.lol)
Just think of it as an Indoor Greenhouse.
Wiollowasp,Hi!:>) Great happy dog faces!They are neat lil dogs.Ya gotta make that visit lovely lady!
Doesnt compare to yall's, but it makes me laugh and my roommates crazy!
Now it's mostly outside, but in winter you could tell I was scratching for spring. :)
Oh and my other addiction is in the top right corner, painting.
That'a a great pic! No comparisions, just the JOY of sharing!
It shows your are a diehard gardener . What's the pic?
Oh the painting? It's of a woman's colar bone-neck area.

I thought I saw a finch and maybe a canary, they all look so healthy. I had a cockateil that lived to 19 1/2 years, named 'Hi Bob', remember the Bob Newheart show?? When my kids were in college there was a drinking game and every time someone walked in on the Newheart show and said 'hi Bob', they took a drink, cherry soda, without caffeine, I'm sure, *LOL*. My cuz breeds Electra Parrots and I assure you I will have one, just as soon as I can work it out...what ever, I LOVE your birdies, we are bird people too...SLike
Oh and also these are an addiction. I think I have about 5 now.... my next on my must have list is a Grandfathers Clock.... :o)
Dee
Isn't it funny...how we all have our own strange and not so strange addictions other than brugs...and we are all brought together in this forum for our love of brugs!
P.L.-Wonder if Dave wants to do an Addiction forum..lol
We gardeners are a very eclectic group.
Sherry-You have good eyes.The birds are a wide variety of Singing Canaries, White Doves, Lady Gouldian Finches,Zebra Finches and of course the parrots.Scarlet Macaw,African Gray and my Mini Macw. We refer to them as "THE ZOO CREW". Those are just the ones inside the house.The sound in here at times is like a Jungle.
Willow...What a beautiful clock! DH has 2 that are over 200 years old & I love their chimes.
Oh God! My addictions run wild.
Brugmansia
hoya
Citrus
Orchids
Epi, Christmas and Easter cactus.
I have to say that I am addicted to gardening, inside and outside.
My, My, your addictiion runneth over... LOL....pretty flowers....What variety of citrus is that?... :o)
Dee
What a nice variety you have ...it is so nice to see the pics that others have posted...makes me feel my place is just the "normal" garden.lol
You have to look behind these 2 monsters to see my addictions! Brugs...Brrrrugs....and more BRUGS! LOL
They are too cute to look past...bet they are spoiled rotten.lol
Nice brugs come on there, too.
This pic was take right before Christmas, so the brugs are much bigger now! As for the 2 monsters.....LOL...she (on the left) is definately a BLONDE (doh) and then Gator, the one on the right...Oh my.....he's full of himself! And really, he does think that he is a monster! LOL
Glad to hear your brugs are growing...mine went outside about the end of March and I just repotted about 20/25 cuttings...next move they go in the ground...SOMEWHERE.Haha
You should post those guys pics on the pet forum..we'd love them over there too! Poodles are great dogs...very smart and lovable best of all no shedding.
Bet I know who rules the roost at your place. They are really cute.
I'm off to put a few in the ground now! We've had very high temps for this time of year and I was waiting for them to go down a bit before I headed back outside. I think I'm burned from being out there all day!
I will post the monsters over on the pet forum tonight! LOL I do love the fact that they don't shed! But I'm telling you right now.....we just had the carpet professionally cleaned today....so if they 'pop a squat'...they are dead-meat in my book!!! LOL But DH will intervene and save them! Actually, they really don't do that......they really are pretty good angels!
Great pics all!
Hey Brinda, those names sound like they should be on Susie's pets! LOL. How big are those little guys? So cute. Are they toy poodles?
No Kell...they are teacup poodles! They really are cute when you see them in person. He is 5" tall and weighs 2 pounds! She is 6" tall and weighs about a pound and 1/2! Her name is Kangi (Kangaroo) because of how she jumps all the time! After we named her.....I couldn't help myself by naming him Gator! (His Daddies name is Navigator) He really is a monster....all you have to do is look at him and he will start growling at you....and if you try to pet him he will tear your hand off! He's really an ass...but he is our ass and we love him!!! LOL
And what a lucky ass he is! LOL.
So small!!!! I would be afraid I would step on them and that would be the end. my foot is bigger than they are.
