Happy Valentine’s Day… been stuck in Yuma with pneumonia… not the way I planned to spend my winter…
I hope everyone is doing well…

I hope you feel better soon!

I can see clearly now! OK not truly clearly, too much internal eye damage on my right eye for that. But my new eye glasses I got yesterday in Los Algodones, Mexico are a big improvement. Unfortunately for me this year there was no big cost savings difference in the prices of new eyeglasses from medical tourism in Mexico. They are now about the same price in the USA versus Mexico. Time passes and changes happen seemingly faster as I get older every year

Now that my eye strain is reduced it is time to get my living space cleared up and get my older computers that have the design 3D Cad software to create new kits to sell put into use. These longer days of springtime sunlight mean more incoming power! Unfortunately when I placed an Amazon order I forgot to add a cooling platform fan to put underneath my laptop. I guess I had better get on that right now so I do not have to make an extra trip to pick it up when my other recent Amazon order arrives. I have a rechargeable personal fan for cooling me in that previous order. The weather is heating up!

I've been trying for ages to get a photo of a saguaro with a "nurse plant" but when I saw them it was always from the car on a narrow road with no shoulder so I couldn't stop. Finally lucked out (and/or paid more attention).
Sometimes a cactus seed lands near a plant that can keep it a little cooler and more humid while it's starting out. From what I've read, as they grow, sometimes one will choke the other out but often they are both able to thrive. One of the reasons why the desert sometimes looks like a flower arranger with a limitless budget went nuts!
