 I'm Ready For My Close Up, Mr. DeMille

So now.. something I should have done all along!!  The close-ups!

                                                         

This is from May 19 or 20.  BOTH of them look exactly the same
Not much going on, but it's clearly still alive!

This one is called Marty.  AKA Righty

Now for the interesting side

This is Spin AKA Left.  Photo taken on May 16

May 16	May 18 (sorry for the fuzz)	May 19
May 20	May 22	Also May 22 I'll use this method going forward!

So this is about as entertaining as watching grass grow (a previous blog of mine) but it IS getting exciting!!  

Come back soon to see the next post on the Adventures of Spin and Marty

And HOW did they get their names.  Like many things -  the names popped into my head and I went with it.  Righty and Marty - easy to remember.  Spin and Left - OK GOT IT.

Another Week

 YES!  I do take pictures every day

NO!  They don't look very different yet lol

So, time keeps rolling along.  They get photographed and watered daily.  I see some change, but not a lot.  I'm going to TRY and post a bunch of those pix... YOU DECIDE!

May 21 (sun in a different place - I should have checked the result sooner lol)

TODAY!  May 22

 A Week Or So Later

So I take a picture EVERY DAY and I noticed that every picture looked EXACTLY the same.  I didn't want to waste real estate on this blog... so I waited.  

They still look pretty much THE SAME... but MAYBE,  JUST MAYBE there is the beginning of growth on the plant on the left????  

I keep making excuses... well... it's been cold at night.

maybe they need more water.

it's early still.

I don't want to even consider that they might not grow. 

But... let's continue the positive outlook! 

May 16.  Maybe????   Here's a close up.
