Misadventurous Melissa

Everyday is an adventure, or misadventure as the case may be. It is the latter that makes for the best stories, inspiring the name of my blog. I'm a nurse and an attorney (and way too silly sometimes). I am retired now. WELCOME to my blog! This is a work of fiction inspired by true events. The patients I refer to are a patchwork quilt of various patient's problems mixed together. If you think you recognize someone, you are wrong. These people do not really exist.

A Cactus Perhaps?



While walking through her neighborhood, my mother came across a man digging little plants out of his yard and discarding them. He told her they were palm trees.

One of those palm trees is now in my house. The more I look at it, though, the more I'm starting to think that it's not a palm tree. What does it look like to you?

That's no palm tree. It's a cactus and it's going to grow long thorns that will poke you and your babies. There is a reason he was getting rid of it.

Could this be a thornless cactus? I do like cactus flowers.
