I just opened my eyes again.

I decided to rest for a little while after I returned home. But when I opened my eyes again, 2 hours had elapsed.
I woke up fresh as a blossom and very happy. I will not have to see the doctor for health reasons for 6 more months so I can go happily for vacations.
The only problem left, and it is not a minor one, is that the doctor thinks it is time to remove the catheter I have. And the health insurance will not pay much to do that or to have a PET scan prior to do it. It is an economic decision for me, but I will have to talk it over with the doctor.
But that can wait.
Meanwhile, I have to think about birthdays (my eldest daughter´s comes first in 2 more days) and palms swaying.

The flower in your photo is pretty I have never seen one like that. Are these growing outside? It is too cold to grow any outside in our area. I am glad that you napped and got refreshed. Good luck with the catheter I hope that you can have it removed inexpensively and it will be good for your body.

That is a cactus flower. It blooms for only one day. As for the catheter, I will have to talk with the doctor if there is a way that we can sort of persuade the insurance compamy that it should pay for part of the procedure.

@marguicha Wow that is really neat that it only blooms for one day. No wonder I have not seem this one before people probably miss its bloom if it only blooms for one day like that.

@shaggin I had that cacti in a conteiner for a couple of years. I placed it in soil and it bloomed.

I will have to talk to the doctor and see how she can word my needs in terms that the insurance company will accept it.

Cacti flowers are different than flowers from other plants. Some of my cacti flowers only blossom in the morrning, others only in the evening.

I guess I don't have to say how much I hate health insurance. Why they have to dictate what we can and cannot do depending on what they will pay is beyond me. If a doctor feels that something needs to be done, insurance should just pay for it. But who am I?

They should pay because we are paying for it.

the flower, is that dragon fruit, its like one because just this morning our dragon fruit flowers bloom and it look really like that. But I think that is an ornamental cactus. Does it bear fruit.

This is a flower from one of my cacti. It only blossoms once a year for a day.
