Shaun and our tortoise son, Nom.

Shaun and our tortoise son, Nom. Nom is so funny. He loves to be held and petted and talked to.

Pardon the hallway. I'm not finished painting. And all of that laundry is what Shaun washed recently. It's all on our to-do list.

Shaun has been off work for a few days.

Shaun has been off work for a few days. He's cleaned the den, rearranged in the den and my living room, decided the towels smelled funky and washed them all with bleach (they smell like fancy hotel towels and I love it), washed the couch covers, and I think he's vacuuming right now (I'm not sure - I'm still laying in my bed like a lazy lump [I know it's almost 3 pm but DO NOT JUDGE ME, I'M ON VACATION 😂😂😂]). He did most of this stuff while I sat in my room alone, photographing and cataloging my plants. I'm pretty much done with my project. Maybe if he's done with his cleaning rampage, we can spend the rest of his off days chilling together.

Sorry, y'all, I won at husbands. He's the best one and I can't be convinced otherwise. ❤️

I feel like this seller spoils me!

I feel like this seller spoils me! One of my favorites, for sure! And the selection is wonderful! 💚💚💚

When you say "Hey." and...

When you say "Hey." and he already knows what's coming. 😂😂😂

I was too optimistic...

I'm eating a slice of Swiss cheese...

I'm eating a slice of Swiss cheese because I'm hungry and sleepy at the same time. I can't decide if I like it or not, but I might eat another one.

I've been working for 2 days straight on plant stuff. I take the plants down, groom them, water them, debug them if I didn't before, repot them if needed, then take a "professional" headshot of them on a neutral background with them looking their best. I do this on my phone, then crop the photo. After I do a section of plants and put them away I use my spreadsheet to try to identify them as I upload them to the GardenTags app. I'm ALMOST halfway through - with 106 plants uploaded. 😂😂😂😭😭😭

I think I can do the rest tomorrow. They are mostly cacti and don't need anything in the way of grooming, and probably don't need water yet, either. We shall see.

Gotta say, I've really enjoyed my couple of days of uninterrupted plant-messing. I'm definitely doing a number on my hands right now, but once I'm done I'll chill out and give myself a proper manicure. 🙂

Well, I think it's time for more cheese, and sleep. Goodnight! (Or morning! Whatever. 😜)

OhMyGOSH y'all.

OhMyGOSH y'all. I'm photographing my plants (who all live indoors, mostly in my BEDROOM) and I picked up a pot and there was a centipede under one. 😳 I am not grossed out or scared of bugs, but I got goosies - probably purely from the shock of finding him there. He looked so neat with his little butt pinchers.

In other news:  If anyone wants to see what all plants I have by name I'm currently cataloging them in the GardenTags app and my user name there is "fairlyoddblu". I think this will be a quick and easy way to know what I've got. Spreadsheets / databases are fun, but unwieldy on mobile devices. 🙂
