Finally stopped raining -- for now

When I was in Lenox Hill, someone sent me this orchid plant. When I was in ICU, I couldn't have flowers and so I only learned about the flowers I got by accident and that really annoyed me. I asked for them to at least bring me the cards, but I couldn't figure out what's what. Ana brought this orchid plant home and nurtured it. When I got home-home on May 17th, it was in full bloom as it is now. So beautiful. I think it must like the spot it's in. I had no idea the blooms would last this long.


 
 
And here are some random garden ones -- just taken from the door. Lane sent me a gardenia plant today that has lots of blooms on it... can't wait until I can smell those gardenias -- one of my favorite smells.

There must be a way to find out who gave you the orchid plant! The woman who solved the mystery of the toilet paper running out more quickly should be able to do it.

Re orchid giver: perhaps Russell M.? Phil?
