were out of power for 18 hours (all electric house); had votives going
as smudge pots for the orchids for a while. some of the little phals
look unhappy, but so far the only bud blast is on the psychopsis,
which has been blasting all winter. clearly it's unhappy about the
cold/dry/both.

oh, and it was snowing this morning. :\

I'm down in North Carolina where we got enough snow a couple weeks ago it
was impossible to catch a late show at the theatres one Saturday afternoon.

I'm sick with some crud with body aches and coughing, and NOW a stopped up
nose.. I blame my youngest for infecting me.

The cymbidiums are happy enough despite their neglect and the
Zelonkiia Onusta is very happy. Beyond that, the orchid bug is
somewhat waning for me. Not enough time, not enough space, and
just not giving me the same level of enjoyment as the garden.
