Update..

I have been such a bad blogger!

Yesterday I did take some photos when I went for a lovely walk in the park that's practically next door to my apartment complex. It was supposed to be an hour-long stroll, but turned into a two-hour walk when I couldn't find any path out of the park in the direction I was walking. I knew which way I needed to go, but there just wasn't a path in that direction! I had to retrace my steps (a few miles, by then) to find my way back out ;P

It was pleasant, though. There were a couple streams and little ponds..





..numerous wildflowers..





..some pretty butterflies..





..and plenty of people out biking, walking their dogs, picnicking, or running around with their kids.

Apologies to my readers for the lack of posts lately. My excuse is that work has been keeping me very busy - I went in for a few hours on Saturday, and I worked again today, even though it was a holiday (Memorial Day!) We have been pretty busy there. I am usually pretty tuckered out when I get home.

Apologies also to my commenters on the lack of responses. I have been reading the comments, and they always make me smile :) I will still respond to them, even though it has been a while. But right now I'm going to go to the gym. I'm trying to get back into a regular workout routine, because I know it will help with my lack of energy and my all-junky-empty-calories appetite. And hopefully with my blogging motivation as well ;)

Orange Star





This weekend I drove out to Nashville to visit my friend, A, who gave me this beautiful South African plant! It was a long drive, but I enjoy road trips, I wanted to get out of Dallas for a bit, and I wanted to see A before she leaves to do research in France for the summer. (!!!)

Saturday and Sunday's photos are posted on Saturday and Sunday even though :-0 I really posted them today. I hope you don't mind my lies. ;)
