Yes, I'm surrounded by kitties and drinking coffee.

It's 59 degrees right now, and we'll have near-frost (33-34 degrees) in the mornings from Friday through Sunday this week. Got to get busy bringing tender plants inside. Phooey! I usually don't have to do this until Thanksgiving weekend. The solarium's going to look like a tropical paradise: 30 Hibiscuses, 7 Plumerias, and lots of Clivias, Mandevillas, Kalanchoes, etc. I'm leaving the Begonias outside this year.

I'm really annoyed about this early frost because it means I won't even see the Tibouchina, Passifloras, and Podranea bloom this year. They're just on the verge of blooming, but the frost will shut them down immediately.
