Mom's Flowers


These are mom's flowers-of-the-month from my brother. Aren't they gorgeous! Wow, I'll be wearing a grass skirt by tonight and singing Tiny Bubbles. It has me longing for the tropics, I tell you! Mom was sweet and said to keep them upstairs here. Shhh, don't tell Bubba Jim.

Not so pretty is my desk. You'd think with all the remote stuff going on, we could do away with wires! I hate all these wires going every which way! Look at how messy I'm getting, again. Geesh. I have a pile on my kitchen table to sort through and then it's on to work on the desk stuff. It sure doesn't take long, does it, for papers and junk to begin multiplying.

We lost our cable TV today, mom's lifeline. I finally called Comcast and told them enough was enough. We have been on and off all of January. Guess who's outside working in the dark?

My mother dearly loved anthiriums...
These are beautiful.
We finally got tired of the outages with cable and changed to sattelite. We've never had a regret and almost never have a problem with it..
hugs!

Beautiful flowers. Thanks for sharing your desk. I feel as if I'm forever chasing a paper trail and that I'm the only one whose desk looks like that. You made my day!

Thank you for sharing your space. I often feel like I'm the only one who has corners like this. Thank you thank you. The anthuriums (sp?) are so great. I think you should have a mai tai party with them as the center piece.

My god, are those flowers? Incredible...they are a wee bit scary, but quite gorgeous!

When my Rob was courting me, he would send me those exact flowers every month or so. I love Bird of Paradise. Now it is down to seeing them at the store and commenting how beautiful they are...lol

Hugs,
Connie
