Playing in the dirt

I received over 500 bulbs a few days ago and here it is December. It is now raining and is to be fairly nice after. Therefore I think I shall go play in the dirt. It will give me something to look forward to when once again Spring will arrive and all the beauty that lays dormant will arise.
Hopefully I will be able to share some wonderful photos with you.
I am also trying my Mom's trick of trying to get roses to root from some recent bouquets I received. I'm not sure if it will work, since these are hot house roses. I've never tried it but I will let you know if it works. There are six different varieties that I will be hoping will sprout roots.
In the mean time I wish all a Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year.

There is still time.

If you haven't checked out my web-site lately, there is still time to get a nice wood etched box for that special someone, or a pretty original painting.
I do hope your Holidays are happy and prosperous.

My beloved Calvin

One month ago we were told that Calvin had a very large brain tumor in the lower right lobe, it was so very near the spinal cord fluid that he had maybe 2 hours to live.
He went through brain surgery and like the wonderful loving person he has always been, came through with a smile on his face. He spent 3 weeks in ICU, went through a ton of tests, and finally they found the evil cancer hiding in his upper right lung. It was already attacking the liver as well.
He came home on Tuesday with the prognosis of 2 weeks to 2 months. He is very weak but oh so very happy that I kept my promise to bring him home. He is on hospice and being so cooperative.
I have found a new strength since he came home and find his love for me is stronger as mine is for him.
There has been many prayers for both from all around the world. We still need your prayers and do appreciate every one for this kindness.
