Oh my gosh ladies, what sweet bird pictures. Jeanne that looks like it came straight out of 'Christmas Ideals' (do they make that magazine anymore? rememeber with the beautiful glossy perfect pictures) Love your log birdhouse. Great shot. Looks so cold and crisp. Sandy how cute. It's been forever (well more than 20 years anyway, lol) since I saw a bird with snow on it's beak like that. Used to love all the little ones that would come around looking for food after a snowstorm. Looks like a little female cardinal Enjoyed the snow pics. Donna

Ei, babble on! Your musings are always fun to read! 'bug, Love the picture of Ivy and dad with Reed in the backgound. Is there anything sweeter than a sleeping baby in your arms? Skyler and dad look mighty fine in their beautiful jackets. Any story behind those? Well, I went to the dentist and am scheduled for the first round of surgery on my gums on Monday. Yuck. Seems I really do need about $30,000 of dental work including crowns for almost every tooth! I am so irked. Then, today I have our regular workmen here. I wanted a new fan in the hall bath because the old one seems to blow only when the heater in the unit is running, too. Mostly, I just want the fan. Time was, this would have been a DH job. Seems those are few and far between these days as my list just grows and grows. Talk about being irked! I scheduled Jorge before the good news from the dentist. Anyway, I thought it would be a quick, cheap, and easy job replacing the fan/light/heater unit. Think again. One of his guys was up in the attic and came down through the ceiling above the tub-not all the way, but wow, what a hole in the ceiling. So now they have to patch that. Jorge is wonderful and I am sure he won't charge for it, but what a pain in the neck. I always feel that any job here becomes much more complicated than he expects it to be. He's one of those quiet types, so I never know what he thinks about working here. He probably cringes every time I call. The people who lived here before us were not prone to doing things the right way, so one thing always seems to lead to another and in trying to fix the jerry- built old set-up, the guy just put his foot though the ceiling. Oh well. Kathy, I am so going to need that reunion in June! I am determined to figure it out! V, keeping my fingers crossed for you. Nice to get good news at work, isn't it?! Michelle, beautiful progression of shots. Oops-got to go get Jorge some paint for the newly repaired ceiling. He is using my hairdryer to dry the patch-lol. Later, all.

Without seeing the plant, it's hard to guess how bad damage is. Watering the plant now was not a good decision. It's a plant that doesn't mind being very dry over the winter. Watering it after weather related damage when the plant is shocked and probably not able or willing to take up water may finish it off. Cuttings may be an option if further decline is noticed. randy

Great questions above. Ultimately condensation will come down to the surface temp of the glass combined with the moisture level in the home, however there are many factors that can contribute to both. Could be as simple and inexpensive as opening some window treatments for circulation as jn3344 seemed to be alluding to.
