I think I have accepted the fact that no matter how much I think I have bought my last orchid (for even a couple months) that I will buy more.
Unfortunately, the wood stoves are my only heat. I was resisting using them but my cats were getting ticked off because it was so cold in the morning. I kept trying to make them understand that the milts won't like it if I get a fire going. That's how I know I am going crazy. I am all bundled up trying to keep warm so my cool loving orchids will be happy. The greenhouse within the house became a necessity.

I'm not going to order any more until next year....but I might buy more if there just happens to be one for sale in front of me that I just can't resist because it is a pretty color or needs rescuing or isn't a phal but maybe a phal is okay if it is a pretty color or needs rescuing....
