....when your dining room is full of orchids instead of being a nice room to have the holidays in, because it has good exposure and there is room for lights in there. Someday, my greenhouse will come.....

...when you have your ebay orchids delivered to a relative's house so you can sneak them home gradually, so your Other Half doesn't notice and complain "not another one!?"

When you've told your husband at least 8 times this month that this order was your last and that you were getting no more orchids this year!

You have two more days left. Make another order...`cause don't you know, you're not supposed to end things with an odd number?

When you go in to a garden center and assure hubby "Don't worry I'm not getting orchids... well 95% sure I won't"... then you come out with 7 including some very large ones.

Did that this weekend

... well they usually just have NoID Phals and this time they had lots of different genuses that I've not tried before!

When you're thinking that you could move the African Violets with that regular fluorescent fixture under your cabinets onto the kitchen counter. AND looking at another 4 tube T5 light fixture to buy with your Christmas money from your MIL. Another Shelf YEAH YEAH.

When you agree to buy an orchid at your orchid society meeting before the seller puts the price on it - because after all, it's Christmas time and you owe yourself a present and it's in bud with beautiful magenta buds and your husband will be out when you get it home so you can sneak it in.....
