Found items for plant containers can be quite whimsical or they can be more formal. The key is to be creative when looking for items to use.

No progress here on the alt + #'s When I do the ¢ it works fine, also ½ and ¾ but I still get ? if the Njum lock is on or not. I don't have a Mac, I have WindowsXP and a Dell Computer. Strange!!!!!!!!!! Oh well..... Shrug!

We are getting really hot weather so haven't even been in the yard to water. Doing more physical therapy for my hip now, parts just wearing out and trying to do some maintenance on it. More exercises to do, I may spend most of my day exercising, somehing I don't like to do.

Well that is strange Pegi. It should work. Confused
Do you have a hip replacement? Hope you get better soon.
It is in the 90's here also and very dry. I stay indoors once it starts warming up. I am thankful that our night time lows are in the 50's. : )

Pegi, if you have a laptop it's different, because there is no separate number pad.

Me neither, Pegi maybe you need to hold your mouth a different way.

Robin I bet your right. Maybe if she holds just the tip of her tongue out the corner of her mouth?

Sticking tongue out I'll try it this way and see what happens.

No, I don't have a hip replacement, maybe just some of my parts wearing out. It has gotten a lot better since I first start having trouble. Have a lot of tension in my lower back, so says the pt, and hoping the exercises help. He says I limp a little when I walk so guess I am babying the hip.
