Western/Lance-leaved Spring Beauty / Claytonia lanceolata

Western/Lance-leaved Spring Beauty / Claytonia lanceolata
Guess I forgot to upload this macro photo of a small Spring Beauty wildflower, taken on Plateau Mountain on July 2nd. This plant is native to Alberta.

"Claytonia lanceolata is a species of wildflower in the purslane family known by the common names lanceleaf springbeauty and western springbeauty. This plant is native to western North America as far south as New Mexico where it grows in foothills up to alpine slopes."

Holy smokes, just had a phone call to say that the 12 boxes coming from England will be delivered this afternoon! I was expecting at least a few days' notice, ha! Sounds like the delivery people are only allowed to carry boxes inside a place, not down to a basement - they have a 2-step limit! Really hoping that they can be persuaded or that at least a few of the boxes will be light enough for me to carry/slide down the stairs myself! I can just see the people who come to replace all they windows and the front door and patio door having to manoevre their way around this pile of boxes if they are stuck in my living room!

12:30 p.m.: all 12 boxes of sentimental belongs of my brother and my parents are now safe and sound down in my basement! Smaller than I was picturing (which is good), but the delivery guy said that certain boxes were VERY heavy! He was absolutely prepared to take them down to the basement for me - said he wouldn't dream of leaving them in my living room - for which I am truly thankful : ) Now I just have to go through the very emotionally exhausting task of unpacking, little by little.
