Stone - Yup, have a little of the blue left (about 1-1.5gal, hopefully enough to paint at least 1 of my sheds), need to combine the pink cans together to see how much I have there (painter opened like every damned can and used some of each, no idea why), and about 3/4 gal of the purple. VERY loud. When I have someone coming to the house, I tell them to look for the bright blue house, can't miss it.
Lin - Ooh, that sounds even worse than I thought! But at least they're taking good care of you! I've heard from a lot of people that Lasik isn't worth it. I get new glasses every 2-3 years, so $300 every 2-3 years isn't bad. I get glasses because I want new glasses, not because my prescription has changed. I need them for distance reading (street signs, etc). I can see perfectly well cars coming, the lines in the road, etc. But reading a street sign from more than 20ft away is hard.. everything's a blur. With my glasses, I have 15/20 vision. Without, 40/20. I don't need glasses to see up close, though. I use my iBooks on my phone regularly & people always ask "Can you actually read that tiny print?" Yes, quite easily.
I didn't know that there was penstemons in Florida! I figured it'd be too wet / low in altitude for them!
