Cactus Monday...I'm BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!

All my succulents were gifts from others. Aunt Mimi's Jade plant that I planted from several cuttings is doing really well. I have two pots going. Her plant was huge. So I imagine these will go in bigger pots before too long. This pretty came from cousin Judy's garden and survives even when I go long weeks forgetting it.
as does this one
and this one. All from Judy's green thumb.
I had a fun day on Sunday if getting up at eight a.m. and taking my time on computer/blogs; sewing cloth books; cutting fabric paper and sewing it into the books; beading, washing floors, washing clothes, laying in the hammock in the sun and dozing, and interweaving those projects over and over again...I didn't leave the house except to go into the back yard.
I had to laugh at myself when I was mopping the tile floors for the first time since they were laid. I have used the swifter on them up until now but decided to use the new mop I got yesterday and filled the new red bucket with hot water and had at them. I found myself bending over forward time after time to see if a mark on the floor was dirt or the design in the tile. Most of the time it was the tile. I laughed because I wanted tile that looked like a dirty floor so the dirt would not show. And lo and behold it does not! Kind of hard when you actually want to make it clean~
I feel fulfilled this Sunday night writing this. Tired in a good way, satisfied, grateful for a clean house, an attractive house; satisfied for having finished two more cloth books; relaxed from the hand sewing and beading on them. I will sleep well tonight.
As I wish you a Happy Cactus Monday... I'll go into work today...what will you be doing?
