The flower exchange makes sense.

As for the presents, I suggest that you keep "No Boxes" in your nickname even after you get your update since, at least in my case, I always have more presents than I have stars necessary to open them. So I consider those gifted presents to be a complete waste. I deleted the two people in my FL who continued to send them after I asked that they stop on more than 1 occasion.

My health is doing much better since I figured out the source of my reactions a couple of weeks ago, but I find medical appointments exhausting regardless of how well I'm feeling. I'm just tired.

Though there are some signs of spring here, yesterday we had a bizarre mix of snow, sleet and rain. Before that, it was loads of rain. There has been severe flooding in many areas near me but not in my neighbourhood -- I'm still high and dry. I believe that at least 2 other wiki members who live in my area also live outside of the flooded areas. Apparently the flood levels are starting to receded but now the cleanup begins and there are hundreds of families who have had severe losses.I don't know how on earth I would manage in a situation like that. Kudos to the families who are dealing with this and to all of the volunteers that have been helping them out.
