I love Iris. Growing up, we had so many beautiful purple/blue iris. So many, that we would cut them and bring them to the nuns in our school. Jim and I bought our first home in 1975, and I tried growing Iris, but to no avail. I did really great with Black Eyed Susan's, though! After moving to South Jersey 7 years ago, I planted Iris, and they are doing great there, as well as multiplying!

Jane, it will be 5 years this August since I had my Cataract surgeries. If I wanted what my insurance covered, I'd have the corrective lenses but I'd need reading glasses. I was thinking of just doing that, but one of my daughters told me if I went with the more expensive lenses, I'd no longer need to wear any glasses. I paid $1,750.00 per eye, so $1,750.00 x 2, so $3,500.00. Immediate eyesite..no glasses! I am 20/20 in my right eye, and 20/25 in my left. So glad I had it done! Prior to the cataracts, I was wearing strong bifocals. I don't know how bad your eyesight is, but I was amazed at how I could see so clearly, and how vivid the colors became for me. Good luck with whatever way that you decide to go.

I'm glad to hear that you are feeling good, Bonnie, and that you are not in pain or discomfort. 15 days more and your daughter will be for a wonderful visit! Our daughter, SIL, and two of our granddaughters are arriving in Naples this Saturday. We haven't seen them since Thanksgiving, so we're sure looking forward to seeing them. My grandson won't be with them, since he's heading for London tomorrow with some College friends for their Spring break. Lucky kid!

Thank you, Lenny! It certainly is a very popular day for Birthdays. Jim always mentions The Alamo. When he was in the Army before being shipped to Viet Nam, he and his buddies went to the Alamo, only to find it closed.😔 We'd talked about getting there over the years, but never did anything about visiting. We're not getting any younger🤔 as evidenced with today being Jim's Birthday, and all. Just sayin...
