I have difficulty treating my plants differently from each other, and since they are not all alike in terms of how much light and water is needed, and the type of soil, one plant may thrive while another one doesn't.Pat Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00760779673175109204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6361077859023918156.post-79817800185779189322017-12-01T10:35:05.750-08:002017-12-01T10:35:05.750-08:00Yes, moderation in eating is something I know is a...Yes, moderation in eating is something I know is a good thing to do and normally do. I guess I needed to have it more forcefully imprinted after over indulging at Thanksgiving. :-/Pat Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00760779673175109204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6361077859023918156.post-75378450790729694802017-11-30T01:35:40.526-08:002017-11-30T01:35:40.526-08:00That is one of my fears on the highway - the blowo...That is one of my fears on the highway - the blowout! So glad that you kept your cool and you and your husband arrived safely with minimal damage.<br />The cactus are beautiful. I love Christmas cactus but gave up a long time ago trying to grow them. Anything else, I've got a green thumb...just not with these :(<br />Family, friends, food and film. Sounds like you had a most wonderful Thanksgiving holiday:)<br />GirlieOnTheEdgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09226101556766074271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6361077859023918156.post-38837622674209511102017-11-28T17:43:59.193-08:002017-11-28T17:43:59.193-08:00Talk about your time standing still moments! well,...Talk about your time standing still moments! well, maybe not completely still, yet there is something thoroughly remarkable in the split seconds (as you describe), when the path of our lives are in flux. Fortunately those extreme events are, for most of us, rare and, in this instance, the outcome benign (especially compared to the potential). While never sought, those moments offer us an appreciation of (our) lives that few other circumstances do.<br /><br />Thanksgiving dinners are interesting in that it is the largest amount of food I encounter on a plate for the entire year. It's after dinner that I appreciate how my eating habits have changed. There was a time when a full plate of food (or more) would be the norm. Can't imagine it now. Now food is smaller portions more often, spread through the day.

It was based on the friendship that Queen Victoria had with Abdul when she was elderly. Judy Dench is such a wonderful actress too. It was beautifully done.Pat Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00760779673175109204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6361077859023918156.post-34573837941009409102017-11-27T17:18:56.734-08:002017-11-27T17:18:56.734-08:00Oh, Pat.

Close call it sounds like, but glad it wasn't any worse.<br /><br />Much to be thankful for.<br /><br />Playing games together is one of the best things about the grandparent/grandchild relationship. That's what memories are made of.<br /><br />Popcorn being tossed over their heads, you are right, wouldn't like be received too well. Glad it was a good movie though. There are multiple films out, from now until the end of the year, that I really want to see. I don't go to see movies often, unless I really have an interest.<br /><br />Happy Holidays to you and glad you've recovered from all the merriment.Kerryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07162949369536716651noreply@blogger.com
