http://violet-obsession.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
African Violet species, minis and vintage, and now Chirita! Friday, April 30, 2010. I have never grown Chirita before, so I hope I don't kill them! These were a generous gift from a friend. Front, left to right- -Betty and Silver Surfer. Back, left to right- -leaves of Piccolo, gemella and Kitaguni. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. I'm looking for Richter violets.

Violet Obsession: January 2011
http://violet-obsession.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
African Violet species, minis and vintage, and now Chirita! Friday, January 7, 2011. Trio from one plant. Anyway, I grew out three baby plants. One has true Apatite leaves, so I figured it would bloom true. The other two have light green leaves, so I figured I would get two Crystals, the registered sport of Apatite. Optimara Little Apatite - Window lighting. Optimara Little Apatite - Indoor lighting. Optimara Little Apatite. The other green-leaved one turned out to be another registered sport, .

Wisconsin Sunrise: I'm in the Mood for Hearts
http://wisconsinsunrise.blogspot.com/2016/12/im-in-mood-for-hearts.html
Thursday, December 15, 2016. I'm in the Mood for Hearts. Those of some natural hearts that turned up in my life. Spud Heart, from a bag of potatoes, Strawberry heart, from a box of strawberries, and Stone Heart, in the desert in southern California. I have other hearts, earrings, a necklace, more heart shaped rocks, and my best heart, the one beating inside my hubby's chest. The locked entry doors, frosty from cold. In the state of Indiana this was a big NO-NO! Again we laughed about when we tried to can...

Wisconsin Sunrise: November 2016
http://wisconsinsunrise.blogspot.com/2016_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, November 30, 2016. Day 30: My Word for 2017.Goals. 2016 was a year of change, of going into debt because we moved 2,300 miles to a new state and had to wait a month for my hubby's background checks to finish so he could begin working. When you've lived in two previous states in two year's time, background checks take longer. My car will be paid in full in just three months, and it still runs great. It's been across the US from Indiana to California and from California to Wisconsin, over lo...

Wisconsin Sunrise: September 2016
http://wisconsinsunrise.blogspot.com/2016_09_01_archive.html
Thursday, September 29, 2016. Needless to say I spent the next few days preparing paperwork and printing pictures. We were separated and interviewed individually. Scary, right? Well, apparently they wanted to hear it from each of us why we moved from Indiana to California and then to Wisconsin in such a short time, and to compare our answers to confirm we made the moves together. Mold was growing around the windows on your car? And why did you leave Indiana? The humidity" I answered. My daughter lived th...

Wisconsin Sunrise: April 2016
http://wisconsinsunrise.blogspot.com/2016_04_01_archive.html
Saturday, April 23, 2016. It was a nice day for a walk, but I'm pretty sure we did too much and hubby will be tired at work. I took some pictures and then left my camera in the car, so I'll get the pictures tomorrow after hubby gets home. I continue to struggle with my blood sugar. I joined a forum on the American Diabetes Association's website. I'm getting some helpful advice. This is truly not easy, and for anyone who has needed to struggle with major diet changes, my heart goes out to them. Honestly, ...

Wisconsin Sunrise: January 2017
http://wisconsinsunrise.blogspot.com/2017_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 29, 2017. How is it Possible. When the sun hasn't shone since January 8th. When immigrants with visas can't come home. When the threat of war looms in the Balkans, or anywhere, for that matter. Links to this post. Tuesday, January 24, 2017. To Smell or Not to Smell. I do OK with most candles, unless they are very strong. I bought one, which I didn't like the look of when it was plugged in, so I returned it. I bought a second one that looked like it should be gorgeous, but it was ugly ...

Wisconsin Sunrise: June 2016
http://wisconsinsunrise.blogspot.com/2016_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 28, 2016. The next time we eat in town, or maybe try the Mineshaft. When it's not too busy. I did laundry by myself yay! And I drove again. Hubby and I stepped out at night and saw lightening bugs. My daughter and I decided to take a walk to the corner. We saw more lightening bugs and a deer grazing. Labels: Around the house. Thursday, June 23, 2016. The other Jade Moon (from the same pot) looks normal? Labels: Around the house. Sunday, June 19, 2016. The bins and boxes from my daughter's s...

Wisconsin Sunrise: This and That
http://wisconsinsunrise.blogspot.com/2016/12/this-and-that.html
Friday, December 16, 2016. I scored another $25 gift card, this time from a different survey company. Yay me! I noticed the companies give you bigger and better surveys after you prove yourself. Today seemed mild after yesterday's biting 25 below zero wind chill. It started snowing about 3:30 pm. We are supposed to get a total of 8 inches by the time it's done on Sunday. I eat yogurt and the program praises me for eating calcium, but then later I eat an apple and the red-letter scolding comes up again, "...
