The pampas grass has started sprouting! Normally, it sprouts in the middle of March but this time it waited until after the middle of April. I was getting really worried about it. I would have been really upset if it had died...

DE @MarieCoyle I wish they could keep things straight. It's annoying for them to tell me one thing over the phone and then we find out something different when they send us a letter. Good luck with your pampas grass! I know you're a little...

I’m not complaining, I’m just mad at myself. Somehow, I picked up a respiratory infection along with a hacking cough. I know, we are always told to take our meds, stay hydrated, and rest. I can take the meds, and I am drinking...

DE @MarieCoyle You're welcome. I wonder if taking an iron supplement would help you? And yes, stress will deplete minerals from your system, including iron.

DE I walked around the house before the medical transport arrived and everything seems to have survived. I only took a picture of the black fern, though. Black fern. Photo is mine.

DE I love the pampas grass but it doesn't really love me. I'm allergic to the pollen it drops in the fall so I have to stay away from it. (Its pollen can burn right through my skin. It looks just like someone held a lit match to me.) The...

DE Springfield, Missouri got flooded out. (They're about 50 miles from us and the closest big city to us.) Since we're up higher than they are by almost 200 feet, we didn't worry about flooding. We're under another flood warning now. More storms...

DE We put in all of that except the celery. Celery is okay in stew but we don't use it for anything else. During the pandemic, people kept giving celery to us and I'd pass it on to the older couple next door. We just don't eat it.

DE Pretty sent them an email complaining about it along with the code on the bottle. We still haven't gotten an email or letter in return. I keep hoping they'll send something to acknowledge the email.

DE @sallypup I really wonder about that, too. How can sane people vote somebody like that into office? (But, I think the same thing about people who voted for the idiot in the big office, too.)
