I've always been a night owl. ⭐️ I feel most alive and awake when most people go to sleep. Late into the night is when my creative energy reaches its peak and is often when inspiration strikes. Over the years, I've learned to follow my natural rhythm and it has done wonders for my productivity and overall happiness. This is one of the reasons I love my job so much. I can set my own schedule. I can work late into the night and allow myself to sleep in on most days. Life is about finding the best ways to live for YOU... if you aren't happy with society's guidebook, write your own. How about you? Are you a night owl or are you more of a morning person? When do you feel most productive or creative?
An old and hearty friend greeting us at the pink house door this morning! Always thrilled to see one of our large weeping euphorbia surrounded by all its spiky companions to start the day.

Cactus aren’t the typical landscaping at fast food restaurants here in California. So I admire this Der Weinerschnitzel for planting this Ferocactus. There were a lot of other cactus, such as Treichocereus pachanoi and Opuntia but the manager said people broke them and cut them down. This barrel is doing pretty good.

I’m not sure what’s more intimidating, the rain clouds moving in or this euphorbia reaching out from the main drive! This garden has many personalities and sometimes it’s fun to see it with a little edge.

A large #FerocactusPilosus stands stolidly in my garden, surrounded by #MoroccanToadflax and #AfricanDaisy flowers. A columnar #NeobuxbaumiaPolylopha rises in the background.
