    I never had luck with fish... or cats. Finches and Dogs I'm good at... and kids...

    NEVER give me a houseplant though... I murder them every time. :/

    It sounds like she has your intelligence as well as your looks. :)

    You're doing a great job.

    HAHA I can relate with the plants! I always kill them. Simple things those things but I always find a way to kill 'em!

    I can landscape like a champ, but if I pot a plant, it's basically a death sentence. The even the hosta shudder when I move a pot in their direction... and they are virtually indestructible.

    I kill cacti and ivy... and have kept an African Violet and an orchid alive for a few years now. I don't get it.

    I had an African Violet for the longest time, Synn! But it was sealed in a terrarium, and I didn't really have to do anything but look at it, and make sure it was near natural light...

    I'm the exact opposite. I can keep any potted plant alive. In fact, many people have given me plants that they thought were dead, and they've come back to life under my care.

    But, ask me to plant something outside and it's inevitable that it will die.

    Muddy, Axel is adorable. I see some german shepherd in him. Are you sure about his breeds? ;)

    R sure has grown. Wasn't she a baby just a while ago?

    Belgian Malinois are almost identical to German Shepherds!

    R sure has grown--- and quickly too :( I wish she was still a baby (at times) but her independence is something I truly enjoy :P

    I can understand that. My kids are now 9 and 13. It's so nice to have two kids that can do things for themselves. Well, at least the basics. :)

    Is it terrible that I can't remember how to make pics work? I used the little picture icon and loaded the link, but no go. I specifically remember being able to do it in the past...

    Alkali, I can tell you how on the V2 Light skin, but any other skin and I'm lost.

    For V2;

    1. Hit the "Go Advanced" button at the bottom of the posting window.

    2. Hit the paper clip on the top of the posting window.

    3. Browse for your picture, then upload.

    4. When the picture loads you'll see it in the "Current attachments" section of that window.

    5. Close down the window.

    6. Push the paper clip button again.

    7. click on the linked picture.

    8. Post your question, and voilą. Picture posted. :)

    Alty & Alkali:

    It's the same in vGO - you go into Advanced and click on the Attachment link.

    VGO has tried to be closer to Light V2 as much as possible with some of a coolness of GO. Its what I'd like to think is the best of both.

    I have an ornamental fig that my hubby got me when I had my mastectomy about 16 years ago. It was in a little dish garden and stood maybe 6 inches tall. It's now taller than me and will hardly fit in my house, luckily the summers here are hot so it is moving outside soon... very soon.

    That plant would've lasted 16 days tops with me LMAO! What a sweet gift from Mr. J_9!
