Kathy,
Boy, does that sound like me or what!! My husband and I wrote (with a
nod to Jeff Foxworthy)some ways to tell if your an irisarian.
1. If a freeze is predicted and there are no blankets left on your bed
because they are covering your iris bed...
2. If you've ever missed your house payment so you would'nt miss the AIS
convention...
3. If you've ever missed your kid's graduation because you weren't back
from the Ais convention...
4. If you've ever bid $40 on an iris that sells for $25 in the
catalogue...
5 If you've ever paid $35-$40 for an iris you knew would probably die
within the first 30 days...
6 If your family has had to fix their own meals because your busy
feeding the iris...
7 If you've ever stayed up half the night breathing on an iris blossom
so it would open for tomorrows show...
8 If you've ever driven 5 MPH and completely ignored the stop signs on
the way to enter the iris show...
9 If you know the names: HORNI LORI,AFTERNOON DELIGHT,WITCH OF ENDOR AND
STREETWALKER do not refer to soap operas...
10. If you've had to remove the kids pictures from the walls to make
room for more Iris plates...
11. If you've ever maxed out your credit card to Schreiners or
cooleys...
12. If you've ever had to rent a U-Haul to get your purchases home from
the rhizome sale...
13. If you've ever removed grass,trees or buildings from your property
to make room for more iris...
If you can say yes to any or all of these "situations"-- "you might be
an irisarian"
