Cactus Monday

 

Remember I showed you this cactus in bloom a while ago?

Meanwhile these flowers are gone

 But when I moved it out of the kitchen yesterday I discovered

This tiny new plant!

Without the clip which prevented the flower from falling down this little  plant would have landed on the soil....... What an ingenious system :) 

 This was my kitchen before the builders started this morning.

This is end of day 1..................

You don't want to see the rest of my house now. Mess everywhere.

Tomorrow I will leave for Toronto leaving poor hubby in this mess. 

Yesterday I cooked for 3 weeks and we still have a coffee machine and a microwave.

At least they won't be hungry.........

Thinking about you all at the East Coast! Hope you are all safe and that Irene won't ruin your home or garden or hurt your loved ones.

Happy Cactus Monday!

Just a few pictures of Italy. I took about 400.......

Felix and I had a real wonderful time. We came home Wednesday evening and back to being busy here again.

Yesterday I took the kids to an amusement park, where they had fun with the 5 of them and I spent time with a friend drinking coffee in the sunshine. I did just one ride as I really get sick of all this tossing and turning.

Today I have to do work in the garden and inside. Tomorrow family from Venezuela will visit and Monday I will start work again.

I saw 2 new grandchildren from blog friends were born. Congrats to you both. I looked at the pictures but had no time to comment. I hope later today I will have.

Have a wonderful weekend :)
