Turns out I was out of town earlier & longer than I had anticipated due to my father being ill. I gave away the Poinsettia, and the kitty cat went to an "auntie" for a few weeks. She gained about 3-4 pounds! I didn't get the opportunity to look at or send off for seed/bulb catalogs, but things got a bit dicey when a relative asked me to help her figure out what was wrong with her plants. We went to her "sunroom" which was filled with plants. An entire roomFULL of plants! They were potbound, needed new soil & fertilizer, different light, pruning . . . I very nearly succombed to the old evil.
   She had plant catalogs & gardening magazines on the coffeetable in her living room. I saw them. It was scary. After I finished helping her, I had to leave & go cold turkey!
   Then, I drove back to Southern CA. I was ok till I saw the cacti. I could get into serious trouble with the Giant Saguaro. I just love "The Old Man of the Desert!" When I lived in Phoenix, people were always bringing fresh oranges & lemons & limes to the office cause they had so much on their trees--their own trees in their yards!
   Oops. I gotta quit thinking about it all. I need a meeting!
