  • Life is Beautiful.

    Life could be is beautiful. You just have to learn how to find it..

  • Pine Cone Cactus

    Today I finally repotted the Pine Cone Cactus that were used to be in two small pots. I received them a few years ago in a small USPS padded envelope from a friend in California. They really looked like pine cones before they turned greener once I planted them in pots. Because of the low temperatures in Santa Fe, I always had them inside the house. But the reality is that they need direct sunlight, which is why they barely grew. Now they have been repotted in a larger pot, they will stay outside till the weather gets colder.

  • Singing Solo

    This is literally the only image I captured today. I was somewhat unsettled by what we saw on the way to my companion’s PT. I only wish everyone there was okay and it was all nothing..

  • The Beginning of the End

    This is our second agave that has reached its time.. While we are looking forward to seeing it bloom, it’s sad to witness the plant approaching the end of its life on earth.

  • Pause

    Pause. Take a deep breath..

  • Train of Dreams

    All aboard. Wherever your heart desires, get on the train and let your imagination lead the way. Good night and enjoy your journey.

  • Easy Afternoon at Home

    This afternoon I finally set up the umbrella for the porch. It has been sitting in the garage for years. The wind in Eldorado can be really strong, and I’m reluctant to use it because of that. Now it’s been installed, we still have to keep an eye on it the whole time.

    I did spend an hour on the porch reading afterwards. I haven’t felt this content living here since a while..

  • Another End of the Day

    Not much to report today. Our gardener didn’t show this morning. It screwed up our plans for the day. Honestly I’m getting tired of this. We couldn’t help but wonder if it’s a New Mexican “thing“, that everything takes longer to get done..

  • Dark Clouds Passing

    When we drove home from downtown, the sky started to change. Just when I was about to close the garage door, it got windy suddenly and tumbleweeds were rolling in frightening speed. I looked up at the sky, a patch of dark cloud was hanging over our neighborhood. I half expected that the weather was going to get worse. But an hour or so later, the sun was shining again.

    It’s a reminder that sometimes dark clouds are just dark clouds; no rain was guaranteed..

  • Good Night and Good Luck.

    Decisions, decisions. I’ve been spending most part of my day in front of the computer, backing up files to the “cloud” and reading online the pros and cons of using Synology Photos or Nextcloud.

    Well, tomorrow is another day. Good night for now.
