Ok, so I don't have to type this over and over I'm posting this here.

I'm sure most of you know I've been without a computer for nearly 3 weeks while mine was in the shop. I've nearly gone crazy!
Woooo Hoooo I can now drool over photos and dream about spring blooms. (grin)

Right after the computer went in the shop we had a Freaky Winter Snow Storm. The electricity was out here for days and I had nothing to do but TRY to stay warm. During this time I got very sick with what I assume is H1N1 flu. The doctor didn't say that's what it was for sure but he said everyone here has it and it's going to have to run it's course. Well I finished up the meds yesterday and I'm still very much under the weather. The only good thing out of all of this is I now have my computer fixed and back home to play on. Yippeeee. I never realized how lucky I was before when I could just take my computer and have it fixed in a couple of hours or a couple of days at the very most. Now that I live in the boonies it takes them FOREVER to get the parts in from anywhere and then it takes them forever to get back on the computers to get them out. Next time I'll just take mine to Dallas and have it fixed. Live and learn I guess. I also told them I wanted to be compensated for the time I was not able to use the DSL and my computer. They are "Suppose" to give me a free month. I'll wait till I see next months bill before I toot my horn about this too loud.

Anyway, I'm back up and running and have 100's of emails to catch up on so everyone bare with me.

Mitt's, Thank you ever so much for the Iris Seeds and the wonderful Iris Book. It gave me something to read and do while I was sitting around here with now computer and no electricity. What perfect timing on your part!!!!

Bill, Thank you for the seeds you shared with me also. This is a wonderful group of iris lovers and just good all around people.
I'm glad to be able to call all of you may gardening buddies and friends.

God Bless You and Yours, Marian

P.S. Here's a couple of snow scenes from last week. Enjoy
