Description

Hello all my Rosity friends.... My first Iris are appearing...This is the first time one of this color has ever came up..A few people sent me some Iris last year and this is one of them.....Another color that is going to appear looks to be like a light blue one...I am so tickled with these colors... After chemo last week my son rode with my girlfriend to pay her cell phone bill,usually I ride with her if I feel like it but was too sick to go this time and he comes back with me a hanging plant...full of beautiful blooms...It is called Calibrachoa or Million Bells he said it was my Mother's Day present and I bursted out in a cry.......First time in a long time no Fushcia...but I love all the little colorful flowers on this plant...I want to go to the greenhouse and get my Zinnia's she sells hers for only 85cents..and her hanging basket full for only $11 where as Walmart's are $20 and Up.... My washing machine broke down so gonna have to get a good used one somewhere....and hubby's job assignment ended today.....so guess he will go back to drawing unemployment..was going to save up and get wallpaper to fix the mom's house I inherited...wallpaper...now will have to pinch pennies again.....thank heavens we put most of all of his check in the bank....were not destitute but not really rich either..In other words we can by...but very carefully..who doesn't these day???? Had my bone scan...The Oncologist couldn't tell if it was a fracture or if the cancer had come back..One is on my spine and one is on my right rib cage..So he had me go get what seemed like fifty x rays...and two days later the nurse calls and said a place shown up on my left leg..so had to go yesterday and get an MRI of my leg..and go back in July for a re peat of the bone scan..Either way it is at a place it is in operable.....So I am stuck with it...They are going to change my chemo so I won't be so sick...Instead of it taking half hr it will now take an hour and half........I am all for not getting sick......Getting out a little more and enjoying the sun......and getting some pics... TY all for commenting on my last image and also for those who favorited me...It means a lot.... I see my Family Dr Tues for med refills..Hubby wants me off Morphine but it really does help the pain..I may cut myself down some since summmer is here........I do so want to enjoy my flowers my front porch and the hummingbirds..Can and will if it ever quits raining in Ky...today was the first day in over a week we haven't had any rain..but due in for storms after midnight...No one can plant flowers or get their tobacco set out due to the rain....... All post work done in PSP 9 I just fixed hue and saturation addedd 2 borders instead of a frame and my name....... Thank you for any comments you leave and also thank you if you favorite me... Please keep me in your prayers........ Love you all Susan aka Blush~

This really is a beautiful capture with great depth of colour. Not good news about them finding more cancer but I hope the chemo can keep the pain away. Lets hope you get some summer weather soon to help you enjoy your garden. Hugs.

Wow, Susan, this is an outstanding photo. It is so crisp and clear and the colors are breathtaking. This deserves higher than a rating of 5.

I was wondering how you were doing. I'm glad it's not all bad, but at least livable. You seem to be doing well in finding things that bring joy into life. I love this image today. A gorgeous flower and colors. Bless you and keep you.

Beautiful capture of the Iris, Sis! Very nicely done! Congrats! I was happy to hear that your leg is okay (just calcium build-up). That is really good news!!! Something to celebrate this weekend! :D Glad to hear you are pain-free, too (as of 5/14/2009). I'm glad I didn't miss this one! Five stars for sure!

This is such a delicate flower. It never lasts long enough for me. Iris is one of my favorite flowers and you have captured it beautifully! Thank you for your visit and all your kind comments. I'm working on 2 rather detailed paintings at the moment that will hopefully but the ones you liked to shame! I'm hoping! LOL! Catch you soon. Thanks again!

Beautiful capture, Susan. Most of my Iris are this variety. I have just a few of the blue ones and didn't see any of them this year. Wonder where they are hiding...LOL Hope all is well, thanks for stopping by my gallery and hope you are healing and feeling much better each and every day.
