Tfw you wake up at 5:45 to pee, then you break a nail, and then you hear your tarantula walking around so since you can't get back to sleep you get up and clean the tarantula house and refresh her dirt, walk the dogs, get an eyeball scraped by Faith's wagging tail, and try to go back to bed but end up on the Internet at 6:30 a.m. 😒

This morning I saw my betta, Saul...

I've never been good with plants or water animals. Currently, I have two bettas who blow bubble nests and live with marimo balls, and all seems well. The only other plant I've ever kept alive is Bob, my Dragon Tree, who came with my house and I doubted he was even a real plant for the longest because he didn't immediately die. 😂😂😂 We're going on 12 years together, and he's even got some baby Dragon Trees sprouting, so I'm going to try branching out a little, myself. 😛

I love the way succulents look, so that's what's up. I have had various succulents as my screensaver for the last few years because they are just beautiful and magical to me. I'm also trying some air plants because they are supposed to be easy. We shall see. I hate to admit that I have killed cactus plants and bamboo before, and as a child, an air plant once. 😞 I am determined to do better this time.

Both Shaun and Dinorah have gotten me succulents recently (not pictured yet, but soon). This is my haul from Lowe's this evening. Now all I need is some bamboo and I'll be set (my birthday is tomorrow - just sayin'. LOL) Anyway, I'm off to do some more reading about my new family members. 🌱🌵🌿😍

Found some truth. Couldn't keep it to myself.

It's been a busy day.

It's been a busy day. Kira's butt-probing went fine. They didn't find anything wrong, thank goodness. We're hoping her pain and other symptoms can be attributed to the gall stones. We'll find out more about that on Wednesday.

After we finally got home I gave my turtle and tortoises new dirt. Tomorrow Bruce and Koopa get fresh substrate, as well. I'm trying to make the most of my week off. I do have some homework, but all of my kids come first. My brain needs a break, anyway.

For now I'm off to hang with Shaun and the dogs, and possibly paint my nails. I hope you all have a good week! ❤️

I go and eat free food if invited, but I don't celebrate this day. My heart is with the Natives.

No one told me...

No one told me we were expecting a blizzard today.
