What an exciting day!

[cb977]

First, I woke up with NO pain in my knee, thanks to the cortisone injection I got yesterday! Yippee!!!

Now, on to orchid stuff...

yesterday, my hubby and I drove past a house a few blocks away from my house with a large sign on the front lawn...all I caught as we went by was the word ORCHIDARIUM!!!

Needless to say, I was obsessing the rest of the evening and this morning we took a ride back to see the details

The sign said ORCHIDARIUM
2' x 4' x 3'h $200.00

$200.00 WHAT???

Of course, I rang the bell to ask about it and the guy brought us into his garage where this HUGE tank was sitting, surrounded by about 8 light fixtures, a misting system and a bunch of pots and media. He said it was all given to him by his dad who can no longer grow his orchids...

All I kept thinking was "how am I rearranging my house to fit this baby in somewhere"...while my husband had a glazed look in his eyes

I told the man I will get back to him. As we drove away and started discussing where it would fit, we realized (and I really knew all along) that we have no room for this monster...but my husband is a really good guy and asked if his large 50 gallon fish tank would make a good orchidarium

"Well, that would be great, honey"

So, all the fancy-tailed guppies we have will be adopted out and I get a new orchid tank!!!



Life is GOOD!!!!!
