I got a new polka dot oilcloth tablecloth. It works with my houseplants, so I am happy. My chair on the left, near my pile of newspapers.

I call this the Dr. Seuss plant because it looks so wacky. Checking google images, I see it is sometimes called paintbrush lily. The flower is about 1.5 or 2 inches. It is a bulb related to amaryllis. Notice the tiny leaves in the dirt. Last year it set a few seeds, and I got one to grow!

I have posted about this Memory Jar before, but here it is again. A wonderful idea for your 2019 New Year!
Starting January 1, write good things that happen to you on little pieces of paper.
• Surprise gifts
• Accomplished goals
• The beauty of nature
• “LOL” moments
• Memories worth saving
• Daily blessings
Then on Dec. 31, open the jar and read all the amazing things that happened to you this year.
Create a memory jar for the year. So fun to read at the end of the year!
