Title: FLOWER PIC...
Post by Langa on Jun 8th, 2005, 9:02am
This is my favorite flower pic.  A few month's ago when I was getting hit non-stop and having no relief, my friend sent me this pic.  Actually, I would wake up to a beautiful picture every morning.  This one was and still is my favorite.  I just had it enlarged and plan on framing it and hanging it on one of my bedroom walls.  

It reminds me that even in the darkest of times, there’s hope.

I pulled it out this morning and looked at it while I prayed for my Mom who is in the hospital.  She's better now, but it seems she's always in the hospital lately.  I appreciate any prayers and vibes for her as well as my younger sister who has terminal cancer.

Can anyone guess what it is?  It's an easy one...

That's a beauty, Langa...thanks ;;D.  I have an orchid that looks a lot like your photo, but it's not blooming at the moment.  Mine is some sort of a phalaenopsos (whatever that means). Your pic is a great mood lifter for my rainy morning.   Pat

I've never seen these things before.
They're called Lantana and they come in several beautifully colored varieties....

those are beautiful, Vig.  They look like Martha Washington Geraniums a little bit.

prayers going up for your Mom and sister, Langa.  I'm sorry to hear that they're struggling.

They tried to open some restaurants down here called Tallywackers.  I presumed it to be a male version of Hooters.
They didn't last very long...

See? They should have named it, "The Stinky Tallywhacker Flower Bar & Grill," and it would have been an overnight success!  ;;D

Thanks Girl!

Mom is much better.  She has a home health aid that comes to her house 8 hours a day 7 days a week...cooks for her, cleans, feeds her, bathes her...I called her house today and the aid answered... :-/  Felt kinda weird.  My mom was enjoying an apple the aid had just peeled for her.  LOL.  I'll be checking the aid out in person on Saturday when I pay my mom a visit.  My mom is thrilled to have the company.  

Love you too.

Langa
