It's a pretty big place.

This is mom actually standing.
She got her hair "permed" for her birthday and spent 20 minutes brushing it....

It's good to see her standing. She's probably not used to arranging a curled head.
This is my general mood.
Kelly dared me to post this photo I made for her.

While everyone is awaiting the TORTOISE gift opening party, I though I would share an orchid picture or two. We have had this one for several years, but it is the first time it has flowered.

I believe the cultivar name is Little Stars. It's a Brassavola nodosa or something like that.
Beautiful. I have been advised to water them with warm water not cold... and mine promptly started to shoot a flower stem. It's days away from flowering now. I'll post a picture when it does

Good mornooning all. I was up early to take JoesDad to the station.

Daughter comes home for Christmas today. We won’t be in for long as we are joining JoesDad in London and heading to see the ballet Swan Lake. This isn’t the regular version; it’s Adam Cooper’s version with an all male cast. Daughter has been desperate to see this version for years and we got tickets for her birthday a couple of months back.

Today is Day 20 and my Christmas song isn’t from my iTunes playlist today. It is, however, something that is being performed at nativity plays up and down the country this week. I know there are several tunes used for this song, but this is the version every British child learns as soon as they go to nursery.

Away in a manger (the children are also signing in Makaton)

I know, broken record here regarding the four lettered word of R A I N - but more tonight PLUS a bonus of gigh wind gusts over 50 mph.

Rain in North Florida today as well. No standing water in the front yard YET, but I'm considering wearing my hiking boots into work today. We're dressing casual this week, so I can get away with it. :)
