backyard flowers

It’s been raining a lot this month. Not the heavy downpours like last year, but a steady soaking rain. A few of the succulents are blooming despite the lack of sunshine. And, that makes me smile.

Shopped at Walmart then Trader Joe’s. Got some plants at TJ’s. Rain overnight. I feel like I’m in a fog, because I’ve had a drink every night for over a week. Ugh.

Tangerines are ready to be picked 

Always liked the way the succulents look after a soaking rain

Tended to my succulents today, among other things. Also visited with the folks and made sure their iPhones were no longer sending SOS Emergency updates. Drove downtown to pick up some candies. Worked on the dissertation for a few hours. I felt productive today. But, I’m really happy to see that this little succulent from Trader Joe’s has grown tremendously over the last few months (after and before pics attached)
