[QUOTE="Long Lashes, post: 262678, member: 41"] I think we both must be... spelling and grammar blind :loon: How great, she sounds like she is in the prime of her life and how lucky she is to be with someone who will never dump, neglect or become bored of her. From what you've said, it sounds like she is very weak, but doesn't want to give up yet. At least she has the opportunity to do as she wishes because you support her. For your sake, I do hope she turns a corner and springs back into life again, that would be so special :pals: I've watered and fed her today. Thanks to you I'm now ultra careful and double check if her soil is really dry or not. She still looks the same i.e. 5 of her original leaves remain and two tiny newies are growing very slowly. You will never guess what I found this afternoon? I was attacking some Ivy and other leaves which were growing thickly in the corner of our garden and came across this... [SPOILER="Couldn't believe my eyes!"] I uncovered a birds nest :yikey: ... I wish I hadn't done as I wouldn't want to scare any birds, but I hacked away at the Ivy before I realised it was there. Anyway, I immediately stopped what I was doing and left that area alone. Mr L thinks its a Robins nest and he is probably right. So for now I'm on [B]Nest Watch[/B] in the LL garden, if only I could attach a web-cam in that nest :cool: [IMG]https://i.ibb.co/Ln8TjJy/DIGITAL-CAMERA.jpg[/IMG] [/SPOILER] Yes, that's very true, apparently they eat dead roots and bacteria ... yes, I've been reading up on them :lol: Ewww... that sounds very slimy, squishy and squashy :eck: It reminds me of when one of my friends was showing me around her garden and I accidently stood on some snails .. oh the horror of hearing that unmistakable crunching sound :confused: What a welcome sight that must've been for you. We change our clocks this weekend which another good sign. Looks can be deceiving cant they, our Robins look very sweet, but will fight each other to the death. I'm so glad to hear they're more protected these days. It sounds as though the Hummingbirds like hot weather, cant say I blame them :) I do envy you with your Hummingbirds, they're so cute. Such competitiveness is not hot[B] N2H[/B] [IMG]http://smileys.smilchat.net/smiley/expressive/agree/snegatif.gif[/IMG] ....and neither are long legs or sun kissed golden locks :p [/QUOTE]
