I'm feeling the same way, Brad. Barely hanging on. We are heading to Florida for a quick weekend to visit the mom-in-law. Have made it clear to my hubby that I have to go to one greenhouse this weekend to get me through til spring. Thankfully I have a cheap greenhouse with some lights in the basement so I can pretend it's summer all year round. I also just made a propagation box according to Doug's (VH) directions so I could dig in the dirt. February is always my longest month!

I'd do anything to get out of here for a vacation. Never been to Florida, much less the beach/ocean. I love seafood, the sun, and my birthstone is aquamarine, so it would seem like I would be a beach person, lol. I wish I had a greenhouse or a sun room. I'd practically live in it all winter long. A mostly rainy summer didn't help for the lack of sun (and when it was sunny, the humidity was unbearable). I hope your trip to the greenhouse yields in some new Hoyas and other plants. The Snow Queen is really kicking into gear. Freezing rain currently, which will change into plain rain later on once it gets warmer. Seeing the snow is pretty for a while, but one gets tired quickly of shoveling it, lol.
