Hello there, and I hope that all is safe and well for you in your part of the world as you're reading this.

Am just popping in to share this fun gif (feel free to download and share it if you wish-please keep the attribution if you do...Many thanks :-) .) and the story behind it.

You know how everyone's supposed to feel mega-inspired by New Year? Well, in the cold and grey of UK winter, you do rather have to work at that a bit.

So, in that spirit, the Computer Man and I bought a new plant for the household this week, and the gif you see above is an illustration of it  (or part of it, actually). (The real thing is below, for comparison).

Our money plant/jade plant.
 (As you see, perfectly-arranged "lifestyle photos"
don't come naturally to me... :-) )

I've always been drawn to the round, fleshy  leaves and general cuteness of money plants (jade plants, cressula ovata, call them what you will), but have never actually owned the real thing before.

Now though,  I can now finally tick this off my list of, "Small things I've always meant to do but haven't got around to yet".

And that tiny action, in its low-key way, has been surprisingly uplifting and inspiring. Inspiration which I'm now passing on to you (should you need or want it,) with the gif at the top of this post.

On that note, will leave you to your week. But thanks so much for being here, and for reading down this far. Hope it was fun, whether or not you're into plants.

More soon.
