Purchased Plant For My Terrarium
[ Friday June 20th 2025 at 9:07 pm ]
I went out to buy myself ice cream as a treat. It has been quite a while since I've ate any. I am physically drained from the past from the past 7 days. I wanted a treat tonight.
While I was at the store I saw a shelf of plants they are selling. I have found the perfect plant for the terrarium I am going to make this weekend. I had planned to make this before my left artificial hip was replaced. I wanted to be able to enjoy looking at this and being peaceful when it was too physically challenging to go to the waterfront trails in the city where I live.
I didn't get to this before my operation. The 2 weeks before my operation were too physically exhausting. I needed rest.
Yesterday evening I purchased the glass container for my terrarium. This evening I've purchased a 4" encheveria plant. Tomorrow I will purchased rubber tubing the LED lights will go into so they won't short circuit or degrade from the moisture of the plant growing.
I am looking forward to putting this together. This is something I have control over to help my recovery be a bit more pleasant. I understand the recovery from this surgery is hard because of the hip being operated on 6 previous times. I am looking forward to having a better quality of life once my right artificial hip is also replaced. For the time being having a plant to look at while the recovery pain is bad will help me.
