I too can stop whenever I want. I'm just too old to learn something new!

All mine are NOID's too. They are still Orchids that need love

And Yesterday there were phals at walmart, sams, and kroger (including horrible blue dyed phals all over kroger) and I again did not purchase a single one. Yay progress.

I have a solution for the whole problem! Don't go anywhere!...become a recluse and stay home...
or enter a convent?...but then that takes strengh...
I don't think I can do strengh.

I'm now stopped due to space.....I just KNOW though that I will succumb again but I take it day to day. I love the idea of becoming a recluse but sadly my hubby needs feeding...hahahaha....that means I have to go to Wal-Mart, (yes we have it but it's called Asda over here..!!). I bought 12 new ceramic pots at Ikea for my current gals to match some pots I already have and now have only ONE left..!!.
I guess that means I can have one more..?? LOL
Does anyone else carry around a little book holding laminated pics of thier Phals just so they don't buy the same colour twice...hee hee. I do.

The laminated pics are a great idea! Then I wouldn't have bought so many yellow phals! However, one has a red lip, another has a pure yellow, another has white, another has...... oh yeah, I have an excuse for everything! But great idea nevertheless!

I love the idea of having a little album of laminated pictures of your Phals or Catts or what ever flavor your Chids are for several reasons...You can use it at the store to be able to select an entirely new one, so you won't have a carbon copy of any... That being said it gives you a whole NEW goal... How many different ones are their ? ? I wonder ? ?
And there is also the friends, neighbors, family and total stranges that you can show them to and tell the story's of all the successes and failures in each Chids eventful upbringing...But best of all to brag about their cudos, awards, photo sessions! But best of all the little bouncing Keikis they have given you and you could even have another album devoted just to them! 'Just watch them grow'... Now I have another obsession to indulge in
You gotta love it, and I WILL!
