Cheryl, those should not be all that hard to re-pot. I just lay the pot on its side and hit it firmly with my palm, rotating the pot as I continue to pound the pot. Finally, the plant and soil (root ball) will slip from the pot. I will then use my fingers to remove as much of the potting soil as possible. Depending on the root ball, you may need to re-pot into a larger pot. When re-potting, particularly when I don't think I am getting much drainage, I replace pretty much all the soil. You really want your soil to be well-draining.

The reason it's so hard to lose weight when you get up in age is because your body and your fat have become good friends.
