Dinorah and I went to the Succulent and Cacti group meeting in Atlanta today...

Dinorah and I went to the Succulent and Cacti group meeting in Atlanta today and it was AWESOME! There was a few people from Alabama there. We were a little late and missed the talk at the beginning, but there was a guy there from Auburn who'd brought some crazy beautiful and large Haworthia and Gasteria to show us. They also had a table of freebie plants and cuttings. This is a photo of our haul after we got them all potted up. I wish I'd known that was a thing because I would have brought some cacti to share. I definitely will next time!

They do meetings and picnics at different places and go on field trips to different nurseries. I am SO PUMPED! I definitely needed this day. 😁💚

I woke up from an ill-timed nap...

I woke up from an ill-timed nap at 8 pm yesterday and I haven't been back to sleep yet. I've been going all day. Took a friend a plant at 9 this morning, had a perfect breakfast with Shaun at Panera, hit a few thrift stores, then stopped home to check on the doggies. Went out a bit later by myself to look for terra cotta pots, but couldn't find any in the size I needed. Went to Lowe's and got a drill bit so I could put drainage holes in the nice pots Shaun bought me the other day, then spent the rest of the day drilling holes, potting plants, and cleaning my room. I JUST NOW sat down to chill. I bet I sleep well tonight! 😂

I enjoyed myself. I hope you all had a nice day, as well! ❤️
