last week a big black tub landed on the deck…

a few days later, in the evening, it got filled up with water…

then a cover went over it… and a heater to keep the temperature at 5° Celsius was added…

now, after a shower, someone uncovers the tub and sits in it for 3 minutes, which seems like a long time, lol…

this is what I spotted this morning;-)…

I am going to give it a try on a Sunday morning… wish me luck…

a few days ago I turned on the radiant heater in the bathroom because the floor was chilly…

sun is going down earlier and coming up later every day… seems like it was just June and here it is September, sigh…

also I’ve been noticing that the trees and plants are changing colour… the cedars are filled with cones… have never seen so many before… seems too soon to be fall…

orchids…

this morning before I left home I took some pictures of the October orchid… the one I got from IKEA last October… which has been blooming since I brought it home… except for a few weeks… it has been amazing… 

it almost looked artificial as the blooms stayed perfect for months at a time… when it finally dropped the last blossom, a new branch emerged and these blossoms have been open for months as well…

my beloved brought me orchids on a fairly regular basis… some for home and some for my work space as well…

he also picked them up for some of my colleagues…

one of my colleagues is away this week and I am orchid-sitting… can’t remember if this is one that he picked up for her… anyway it has seven blossoms on it…

have made sure the light is on in the office and the blinds open… even put the heater on for a while…

it has been so long since it bloomed that we can’t remember what colour it is going to be…

very exciting, although I do hope it waits until her return before opening…
