Awake and African Violets

As of now, I have been awake and working for 27 hours. Didn't know I could do it. When push comes to shove, sure, I cry a bucket-full of tears and then run to the finish line. Deadlines, deadlines, how I love them. But I cry first.

But there is a silver lining to all this. My African Violet, suddenly started to bloom for the first time after I bought it from the store 2.5 years ago. When I pampered it, it got spoilt. When I left it to the dogs (I mean aphids) it decided to rebel and produce the purple flowers I have wanted to see for years.

Ok, back to writing another report (while hoping that the Azaleas get some inspiration from the AVs...and my simulations do too...though for sure I cannot wait another 2.5 years!)
