PICTURE THIS
I saw this solitary flower peeking through the fence today, on our walk.
I am a bit obsessed with knowing the name of plants, so I
downloaded an APP called PICTURE THIS. With it, I take a photo of the plant & the APP tells me the name. Simple, right? Well I took 2
different photos & it gave me 2 different names:
SEASIDE PETUNIA CALIBRACHOA parviflora
Since we live quite far from the seaside, I am going with:
LEWIS'S MONKEYFLOWER, ERYTHRANTHE lewisii
In any case, it is a lovely, TINY flower, easily missed.
This is another example of learning to see things anew
through blip. I have passed by this plant many times, but now I
see it more closely.
We were offered a free membership to an expensive APP called
CALM, which I downloaded to help with intermittent anxiety & insomnia.
There is a 7-day meditation to help with anxiety & these lovely
bedtime stories to help get to sleep.
Both of the narrators have lovely voices. Each day of the Meditation on Anxiety there is a suggestion that I find helpful. I look forward to
dropping everything & listening to meditation.
The first bedtime story was about taking a train trip through Norway. I actually fell asleep before we got out of the station, because the narrator's voice is so calming. I do want to finish the story because I love Norway. More tonight....
I have downloaded lots of APPS thinking they would be useful,
only to find they just add clutter. These 2 may be "keepers."
