Stapelia

Just a single flower hanging down from my plant, but at least it has flowered again, which is a good thing as I usually manage to kill all my plants with over watering or not enough watering. Not a great photo, but all I managed today. I think perhaps I need to try and position it a little better. Spent most of the day sorting boxes that my brother in law fetched down from the garage roof for me. Found my old photograph albums - our wedding album, the baby album, holiday albums ..., old music tapes .... and remembered to rejoice in all the happy memories instead of crying while I played the scratchy old Don Williams tape "You're My Best Friend". Wonderful memory when Don had a tape player put into my car some 30 odd years ago, he left my car in the parking lot at work, and when finished work and turned the ignition key, the music immediately started playing You're My Best Friend.
memories - each one better than the last

stunning bizarre flower

@anniesue Thanks Annie-Sue. Yes indeed memories ... making a concerted effort to try and be positive. And the flower. Very bizarre. Smells a bit like rotting flesh if one gets up really close. Also called a carrion flower as the smell is to attract flies to pollinate it.

What lovely memories must have come flooding back as you listened to Don Williams etc.
