Many blessings. I finally found the poinsettias, four stores I had to go, I wanted them to look natural and everything had glitter, but I finally found these attached to white roses and they had glitter centers, but I thought I could make them work. I cut them off from the roses and scraped off the glitter from the centers, with my craft paints I painted the centers yellow and pushed them into the pots with the little plants, I will getting more though for a fuller look.

Then I though the wall in front of the balcony needed a bit of color so I took out the leftover paint and painted it violet also to match the other wall, but I dunno if it actually looks better, I'm having second thoughts about it. Myself I those aren't my choice of colors for a house, but my daughter wanted them

Today we made the traditional rice with pigeon peas, potato salad, a simple salad and pork chops! Yaaaay no frigging turkey! Well the hospital didn't (thank God actually) give out turkeys this year as they bought another hospital in the metropolitan area which is to specialize in maternity and I suppose they're tight in the finances department but I'm so glad! Hate making turkey, and we were planning on giving it away anyway :)
So I'm fixing a couple things around her and messing with my orchids which have been quite petulant since the hurricane, especially the phalaenopsis, man, they used to bloom about now and last year was nada and this year so far only two have spikes! oh well...
Anyway, thankful for life, blessing to all who may read this...
