What I'm Reading This Week #24
Sup y'all! Welcome to flop sweat season (and Friday!) I hope you had a good week and stayed cool. I had to wave the flag and pull all of the 'impatiens' I grew from seed as that is not the plant I apparently bought. I'm still going round with the people I got them from because dammit, I want a refund. So I had to go to the nursery and get regular impatiens to replace the ones I pulled. It's already nicer to see actual color instead of looking out everyday and wonder WTF they're going to turn into other than some rando plant with a thick, juicy stem.

The things you learn later in life - sometimes too late.

I have grocery shopping after I finish work, and washing the bedding. I was happy to get the regular laundry done yesterday so my weekend is free of that. Usual house stuff for the weekend and church on Sunday.
ReplyDeleteI hope you guys have a good weekend and the railing cooperates with your plan C!!!
