I bought this pillow for me to use but I really don’t know what I was thinking
Penny the black and white tailless cat is on a gray fleece pillow in a sunbeam. Back toe beans face the camera and her nose is also very cute and pink. Her head rests on her front paws as though she is really savoring this nap.

oh cool, it turns out there was a reason it smelled like perfume in here
Close up of my hand holding up one umbrel of small white star shaped flowers with magenta centers at the end of one branch of a hoya with oval leaves that are pointy at the end. There are more flowers that aren’t ready yet on a second stalk above this one.

I found the coziest girl
Penny the small black and white tailless cat is snuggled deeply into a knit striped pillow and a second, yellow pillow. She is very asleep. Her paws are tucked in cutely in front.

three different sets of blooms on my hoya nummularioides this year! one set of blooms last year was enough to make my room smell almost too good for a month, so this is gonna be intense
Two peduncles with small star shaped flowers, still closed, growing out of them. One set of flowers is white and one is still green. There are some of the leaves visible too - they are oval shaped, bright green and fuzzy

this thing is getting surprisingly heavy

(my rhipsalis, Wynton)
A large and dense epiphytic cactus with long spindly branches being held at arms length because of how big it is. It’s in a gray pot you can’t really see

Sunday morning visitor
Penny the black and white shorthair cat standing on my legs which are under a yellow blanket. I am grabbing her ear from the left and she looks very happy about it. There is a little black spot on her nose, like usual

now with bonus banana
Penny sticks her head out of a very beat up arc shaped cat scratcher to look at the camera. She looks pleased as there is a big banana stuffed with catnip night by her face

Allston Christmas blessed us with a like-new second copy of the scratcher Penny likes best
Four car scratchers in various stages of demolition on a blue and green diamond patterned area rug. Penny the black and white cat has her head under the top scratcher and her body sticking out

But when she doesn’t, watch out
Penny the cat uses four paws to kick and grab at my thumb, which she examines warily

She sleeps
Penny the black and white cat lies asleep on a striped knit pillow on her left side with her little white paws and pink beans toward the camera Penny on the striped pillow from further away. Her back paws are stretched out.

The banana is still /very/ popular

The banana is very popular
Penny the black and white tailless cat is lying in her side under and absolutely demolished arc shaped cat scratcher, her little white legs sticking out one side and a sliver of her head out the other. A large stuffed catnip toy banana is near. She looks caught in the act.

I’m growing some cebu blue pothos cuttings in tubes near the window and since the cutting was from a twisty part of the plant and sun is hitting the part in water, this one is growing some leaves under the waterline. Now I’m not sure how to plant it
A small test tube style glass tube held in my hand with a dark green plant cutting growing in it, a leaf visible above the waterline and both leaves and roots growing below the line of the water.

Everyone at the pet hospital loves her
Penny Q Cat, a small to medium sized tailless black and white domestic shorthair, rests on her side. Her belly and wrist are shaved but she’s looking much better than this time yesterday and she’s comfortable on top of a foam mattress that has the pad and sheet removed because she barfed on it. She has been given the good drugs.

tradescantias are great if you want to grow too much of something and don’t have the space for zucchini

I also saw a regular style (not befurred) snake
A snake with a white belly and black upper side is climbing some glass. You can really see her belly scales and big green eyes. There’s a second lighter snake lying down near her but you can only see the middle.

I encountered a great creature today. Her name is Ginger and I love her.
A small otter is on top of a big rock in the sun. Her face is toward the camera facing left A small otter is starting to do a barrel roll in green water with leaves. Her face and paws are turned to the right and her belly is up A small otter swims with purpose toward the camera. Her nose and eyes are very shiny and cute.

they’re at it again
Streptrocarpus “kaleidoscope” with two blooms on a stalk. The blooms are ruffled and kind of trumpet shaped. They’re bright purple with some magenta stripes and white in the center.

A lot of nice flowers happening right now, at least
Streptocarpus “kaleidoscope” in bloom (ruffled purple flower on a long stalk with pink streaks and ribbed bright green leaves) Aeschynanthus “Mona Lisa” with clusters of red trumpet shaped flowers with maroon caudexes and big shiny oval leaves. My hand is holding up a cluster of blooms.

2022 - today

Plant has officially become Inconvenient
A small rhipsalis cerealis (coral cactus), an arboreal tropical cactus with short chunky green segments, in a yellow pot a little smaller than a coffee mug. A large rhipsalis cerealis I can barely hold up in one hand in a grey flowerpot
