My beautiful orchid. It’s the 3rd year in a row this beauty has made a comeback. She was a present from my parents when I received the Noyce fellowship, so I hold her close to my heart!
I’ve been spending oodles of time indoors cleaning and deep cleaning and then cleaning even more. I even cleaned under and behind the fridge! Squeak! Squeakity! Squeaky clean!
While I mopped, scrubbed, vacuumed, heaved, hoed, tidied, and shaped up this ship, I had fun arranging odds and ends, bits of stone, shell, and coral.
. I took a picture of one arrangement before it got a) dusty or b) quickly un-arranged by some very playful and naughty kittehs’!
Now I know the picture below showcases a very well behaved kitty with nothing more in her mind than a good 16 hour nap, but don’t let her fool you! She is a smart aleck, wise gal, rabble rouser of lawlessness! When she’s not sleeping in a box, she is making t-r-o-u-b-l-e.
she’s baaaaaaack!
