My sis is supposed to have a baby (her first) in the next couple of days. She wants me to be at the hospital for the grand occasion, however i cant really do that as i live 500mi away. The rest of my family is planning to go to the hospital, so i feel bad that im not going to go. But after all i’m planning to drive down that way for thanksgiving and i dont want to drive 500mi there and back twice in the same month.
Anyways do you think i should send her flowers, or something of that sort. Or should I just bring her some when i visit for thanksgiving. Also are live flowers even a good idea with a new born in the house. I guess what i am i asking is – is there anything i can do to show her i still care since im not going to the hospital with the rest of my family.
It’d be a good idea to send something to show you’re thinking about them and you wish you could be there. Some flower places will do newborn arrangements that include teddy bears and flowers. I’d suggest getting one of those along with a good new baby card. Your sister will miss having you there but she’ll appreciate the gesture and the fact that you’re thinkign about her!
I know a couple who had a wedding planned, they (or rather the bride) had done all the arrangements, sent out invitations and all the normal wedding stuff. The bride was even doing the flowers herself and made a beautiful set to go on the tables for the big day.
One day the groom cancelled the wedding two weeks prior to the occasion leaving the people invited in limbo as well as obviousley devastating the bride. Seeing as their has been a lot of money gone into the wedding from one particular side, can the groom be sued for any reason for cancelling the wedding?
The bride can sue the groom for money, probably half the money (depending what they had planned as to who was paying) that was already put into the wedding…… Like for down payments, flowers, cake etc….. She may even be able to get some type of emotional damage maybe
I’ve been wanting a tortoise for almost a year now, and I’m doing lots of research, planning a lot, telling my parents, and trying to provide it with the best care possible.

Endive
Escarole
Chicory

Turnip greens
Mustard greens
Kale
Collards
Spring Mix (mixed salad greens)

I can only provide romaine, red and green leaf lettuce, endive, radicchio, kale, collards, spring mix, cabbage, zucchini, carrots, pumpkin, green beans, papaya, mango, apple, strawberries, blackberries, tomato, hosta, mulberry leaves on occasion, dandelion, and rose. It’s not a varied diet and I can’t provide the more important plants.
I live in Toronto and is there an area which has these plants? I don’t want you to say I don’t need all of these. I need lots of these. At least give me a place to buy all the basic foods and at least half of the other favourite foods.
Ah… that is the list of possible plants, they do not need every plant every day, or even every week.
For my Red-foots, here is what I do when they are indoors, based on info from several trusted breeders and authors:
Buy 2 heads of different greens, at least one of them will be endive, escarole, arugula (rocket), dandelion leaves, turnip greems or collard greens. The other head will be something else from your list of greens usually. I feed them one of the greens every day or so, misting the food well. (Next week, I’ll use two different greens.)
Once a week, I add some fruits, or some veggies with seeds- tropical fruit (not banana), melon, squash, bell pepper, apple, pineapple, dark plums, etc. I have a salad bar at my local store, so I often just get a selection there. I also feed whole mushrooms every week.
Once a month or so, I toss in some meat protein- preferably worms or pinkies, but also cooked chicken, hard boiled eggs, or even low-calorie cat kibble (well-soaked).
I sprinkle a pinch of calcium powder on one meal a week, and I sprinkle some cut up rabbit hay or ground up hay cubes on the food a couple times a week for more fiber.
Either feed very small meals, or skip days so your guys grow SLOWLY.
From your list of what you can provide, you are doing OK- it IS a veried diet. Go light on: plain lettuces and spring mix, carrots, beans, blackberries, and tomato. You are not missing a lot of ‘important’ plants’.
Remember- these guys live in places with very limited access to healthy food (most of the plants around them are not safe to eat) and they are experts at living on very little.
Come on, dude- you are supposed to eat a varied diet as well and you don’t eat that much stuff!
