Glad I'm entertaining everyone! Yup, my family is a little crazy. And I do have to yell at Mom when she gets too close to my plants or when she plays too much with my caterpillars. Mom has a black thumb and really only has success with African Violets and gesneriads. It's funny, she'll have "her" plants in the yard which means the ones she bought and I take care of. Like right now her Meyer Lemon is blooming so I took her outside to smell the flowers. I love citrus season! Even downtown today I could smell orange blossoms.

And while I was downtown today I went across the street to the little park/square across the street during my lunch. It was so nice outside I just sat and read the paper. Whie I was doing that, a bright, medium-sized sulphur flew by. It was almost neon-looking! I checked around the house tonight after I got home and the Sandhill Crane is still there, but no butterflies today.

My three GF cats are munching away. I love the little holes they eat in the leaf - so cute!
