Feast or Famine…
…All or Nothing…On a Roll or a Slug…that’s about how I operate! 
So now I’m back to write a few lines.
Had a family gathering/reunion in the desert (near Palm Springs) for hubby’s side of the family. It was a warm 82° out there. More than I’d like, but better than cold temps any day! Took tons of pix I now need to process.
I need to get back to my plants & garden care. The jungle continues to take over. 
I suppose it will have to wait till I can focus on it. Tax returns are taking a front seat now. Then, there’s The Wall project I need to get moving on for the front yard, between us & the neighbors. Fun stuff ahead!
This little gal stole the show. What a cute lil fluff ball she was! One family member was taking back across the country to another family member! Edit: I found out she is ½ Bichon & ½ Lhasa. They named her Mei Li, which I’m told is Mandarin for “beautiful”.
Time flies!
Yes, we had rain & some heavy winds, knocking chairs in to the pool & wreaking havoc on my potted plants. Not as bad as they were warning us about. Things busy as usual, with bowling leagues, remodeling the house, prep work to get our son ready for college & the like.
Posting just a few pix that I have on my hard drive, as my external drive is still giving me trouble. Thought I had the bootable sector repaired, but it decides each day whether or not it will work for me! Fickle!
Echeveria 'Tippy'
Frilly hybrid Echeveria
Not sure if names will show up on these pix…so, above, Echeverias ‘Tippy’, and a hybrid.
More yak when I’m able! Have to get dinner started & take son to bowling league tonight! Had 6 games of practice today, averaging 202. I’m satisfied! 
Animation test
Artist paint animation
Wondering how this will work. When I started typing, the font was underlined & blue, as if it would become a hyperlink like the thumbnail pic. Once I got the print to another line, it changed. Oh…can’t sleep…even though it’s RAINING (told that wouldn’t happen till Friday)…so I’m up in the wee hours. At least I heard the sprinklers come on & was able to shut them down.
Hit the right justify for this section, to see how it looks. Dental appt this morning & lunch with a friend I haven’t seen in 18 yrs! Yikes~too long!
Found out if you put an animation in using thumbnail option, it won’t show the animation till you click on it. Aha! So I added the full size (1st, larger pic) & now you see animation in the post.
