Thursday

52 degrees and very damp. One of our Christmas cacti (we have two, a large red one and a small white one) has decided to bloom. The big red one bloomed in early December (and is still flowering) and now the little white one's blooms are opening.

Have also been watching coverage of the Haiti Quake this morning, especially the stunning footage from the flyover of the capital, Port-au-Prince. We've donated to Doctors Without Borders, and I understand that fandom is also playing a part with [livejournal.com profile] help_haiti. A fascinating CNET article on giving and avoiding scams is here, for those who are interested, and Charity Navigator has put together a list of organizations who are doing good work for Haitian recovery here.

Thanks for the donation info.

I have been largely unproductive again today. New storm front coming in and my noggin has been telling me all about it. *sighs*

I guess I'll get off here soon and go bond with the sofa awhile. But food first.

How's your day been going?

It's been very quiet! I thought I was going to have to run a couple of errands, but Mr. N went out instead. ;-)

Heh! Obviously, I had to bond with said sofa for another day...so I never got on here to see your reply. :(

Glad it was a quiet day for you, tho'. ;)
