Friends!
Whew, it's been a while.
First off, thank you for all your comments on my last post. I'm honored to "know" so many intelligent and independent women. I thoroughly enjoyed reading all your different points of view. (Or should that be "point of views"?)
So today I had to be at work at 3 AM, to cover the last half of grave shift and then work mine. I knew I'd be stir crazy by noon (too right!) so I grabbed my camera on the way out the door and took a break after lunch to shoot the flowers on the grounds at work.
et voila!
Prickly Pear cactus with Brittlebush
The obligatory cactus flower!
I need a better macro...
Brittlebush blooms and Indigo flowers
A double blossom!
Indigo flowers.
Globe Mallow.
This flower is very tiny, only about a half inch across.
Desert Willow.
Desert Willow, the sneezy version!
Pink Penstemmon.
Tomorrow it's back to work again at 3 AM, we shall see how creative I feel by the evening!

What gorgeous flowers! I love the contrast of the yellow and navy flowers together and the prickly pear bloom looks made of gossamer :-)
Beautiful! Thanks for sharing.
I've had my cactus house plant for over 10 years now and it's still to grace my presence with a single bloom! LOL!!
Awww I love, love, love cacti flowers!!
These are brilliant shots of blooms! I hope they keep you going until 3 am!! These and coffee. Lots. Of. Coffee. :-) 3 am?!?!? Wow! Take care

Such glorious colour! What a lovely way (for me) to start my morning.
BTW, I went back to your previous post and read all the comments. There's still a part of me that finds it amazing that so many others have similar experiences to my own, have mental health issues, struggles with weight, emotional eating, etc. I think we can feel alone in our suffering, especially when we are young(er), but the reality is that we all have our own issues, our own inner cr*p to work out. And all of these issues seem to be common to the general human experience.
Man, if I have to come back again, I want to be a Canada goose or tree or something like that. Really don't want to go through all of this human stuff again. LOL.
the first photo brought tears to my eyes-
Spring in the desert-Beautiful!
Beautiful Trish!
