laziness ocassionally has its rewards.....

ok, so......sloth has finally paid off, or at least with the potential for a fine pay-off......the weekend before my anniversary i happened to buy a small bundle of cream-colored roses at the ald...for $2.99......they were sweetly scented.....and the price was right.....these roses have been in a vase on the kitchen windowsill ever since.......and actually looked presentable until this week.....but because things that sit upon the kitchen sill do not keep my attention for long.....i didn't get around to tossing the dried out bouquet.....until this morning....and what a surprise......3 of the stems had sprouted new growth........which means that i may just be able to root them and grow bushes of my own....wow!...the sprouts all burst forth inside the glass of the vase.....which means that there must have been some sort of greenhouse effect going on......after church i plan to repot the stems, after applying rooting compound to the bottoms.......even if only 1 out of 3 stems actually roots, i am still in luck.........
