Its not what I neglect, its what my wife neglects! Whistling

We have been happily married for 42 years and she's the love of my life. I was just joking about the neglect ,though I sometimes accuse her of that (when I really want something........did someone say orchids are on sale?!).

The reason it's so hard to lose weight when you get up in age is because your body and your fat have become good friends.

I've been trying to convince my hubby for years that "Bad Attention is better than No Attention"...he's not a believer. Confused

It's people like you, Ken, that have to show us the way so that we know! Thanks for sharing these tidbits!

Ah the word dumb..like neglect...is a relative one..what sounds dumb to some is a delightful idea to others. Similarly, what looks neglectful to some, is actually a more acceptable approach.

Tarev as you wax poetic (or philosophic) I'm wondering if you've had more than just "tillandsia on the rocks" Shrug! Hilarious!

Time to update status of my tillandsias. Last Saturday we went to Japantown and found this cute wire containers that can be used for tillandsias..at $1.50 ea, they went home with me! Big Grin
Thumb of 2015-04-22/tarev/1f0116

So how are the tillies doing:
This was the one in bloom last year, and it has successfully made some pups! Hurray!
Thumb of 2015-04-22/tarev/8ac118

Other tillies also busy making new pups:
Thumb of 2015-04-22/tarev/b710c0

These are the ones originally 'on the rocks' then moved to the hanging glass container: so far doing good, but I have to replace the one with the tillandsia bulbosa, that one has broken glass, so the new basket will be its new home:

Close-up of tillandsia bulbosa, it is doing good, making more new pups too:trying to show different angles of the plant
Thumb of 2015-04-22/tarev/e12d3a Thumb of 2015-04-22/tarev/bf5b46
Have moved tillandsia bulbosa to the new wire basket:

Now the other tilly that was already growing big before is really much bigger now: I am just hanging it upside down for now:

I just love what you are putting together, Spitz. It is going to be awesome when completed. Of course, our "collections" are never truly completed. Whistling
