So it only took like A YEAR for this stupid pepper plant to finally put out blossoms. I was going to repot it, but now I'm afraid that moving it will hurt my precious flowers (my preciousssssssssss...). But I probably will repot it anyway and use some string to tie it up for support, because when the flowers become peppers they will be heavy.
I also started germinating some jack pine seeds to make my own bonsai. First I soak them for 24 hours. Then I put them in a damp paper towel, in a plastic bag, in the fridge for seven days. If I remember after seven days to take them out of the fridge and put them in the dirt. I'll have to leave myself a note on the fridge, and check off the days. Otherwise I might forget. I like my plants. Especially poor George the peace lily who got sunburned and is now trying to recouperate from that experience. He actually looks pretty good, now that he's not getting a whole lot of direct sun and lots of nice, Miracle-Gro laced water. My African violets like the Miracle-Gro laced water too. I have some little ones that I split a few weeks ago that are starting to perk up. Yay for Miracle-Gro!
Today is another lovely LAUNDRY DAY, so I'm sitting around in my pajamas being low-key. Maybe later I'll feel like playing my piano, except it needs tuning and that makes me crazy. So maybe I won't feel like playing.
Rusty and I went to the vet again yesterday to check on his UTI, and he still isn't concentrating his urine as well as Dr. Elaine would like, so she's going to send it off to the lab to run more cultures. Argh. And Rusty needs a bath (but don't tell him that), except it's still too cold for him to go outside with wet fur. I don't want him getting any respiratory diseases, to go along with the UTI.
Anybody want a small African violet? When I pass on some of them, I can split up the one I have that's totally exploding out of its pot. Oh, and I can pass around spider plants too. My big spider plant is just sending out spiders left and right. Just let me know! *grin*
Have a good Sunday! Ciao~

Hi Abby,
How are you today?
I severely pulled by left lower back and glut muscles lifting my monstrously heavy garage door last Friday. The weekend was hell. Couldn't bend, couldn't sit or turn. I spent the better part of today at the chiropractor and then later at the massage therapist. Definitely more tolerable this p.m.
Sounds like you have quite a jungle going over there. Kevin would love a cutting from your spider plant. He has a small greenhouse going in the corner of our kitchen.
See you tomorrow.
Les
