I Am Alive...

...Infact, the living room is now properly organized, now that I assembled the new bookshelf...and we only have two stacks of books on the floor now, instead of three or four significantly higher stacks.  My plants are happy!  They are each taking their time to decide on their "spot".  Kip and I just bought a new little guy.  He is a gorgeous galaxy, with blazing yellow stars scattered in glorious nightscape across the keep green leaves!  Will introduce you to him...as soon as I find my camera.   Love you all.  Still sane.  Just a little more moving, and a lot more organizing, and then our regular programing will continue!  This novice gardner is not to be derailed, no!  I will persist.  And I will water my spider plant (hen and chicks) before madam and all her offspring expire.  (She shouldn't complain, for she was placed upon the much envied blue bookshelf next to Mr. Tuttle, the golden toad, a ship, and a few pirate books, Treasure Island not being the least. Arrgg!)
