I'm going to spend the day with grandkids. One has a doctor's appointment this morning so he won't be going to kindergarten today and the other isn't 3 yet so she's still at home. I love them so I'm looking forward to it

My heart bleeds for Ukraine. It's amazing how humanity hasn't found humane ways of dealing with each other.

I wanted to send a blue and a yellow flower, but there’s nothing in “true blue” that would survive temperatures, or even indoors. So I settled for lavender.
Both are indoor plants, no need to take out to patio. But if they do go out to the patio, put in shade, not in direct sunlight. Though I think the yellow one would do ok in some sunlight, the lavender one no.
Best place for them to live is a bright window (east exposure is best, west is worst) but not in blaring direct sun, it will burn the leaves.
So in other words, morning sun exposure is better than afternoon sun.
Under a fluorescent lamp is good too, especially in winter, but regular window is fine too.
Important to give them at least 8hrs overnight dark, don’t leave them in a lit room overnight, will negatively impact blooming cycle..

So i can read up more on their care:

Yellow = kalanchoe (a succulent!!)
Lavender = African violet

Instructions

I am not to water them (yet) I just watered them before shipment.
Stick my finger under a leaf, feel the soil, that is the wettest they should ever be.
I had them here for 2 weeks before I sent them , and watered them once per week during that time. That seemed adequate, though you might need twice per week in a hotter summer general weather (and interior).
They both came from a 70 degree nursery.
I literally had to run a heater at 70 degrees here for them in my spare room, because my house is only 52 degrees and that’s too cold for them.
that was a real hassle because I had to keep the room door closed to retain the heat, and my TV is in that room so I couldn’t watch tv for 2 weeks. Which is why I sent it to you early, I couldn’t take it anymore.

But the REAL saga was “how to pack these for shipping”
I am not kidding you that I spent every night for the past 2 weeks “seeing it in my dreams” I am so glad to be done with them, I was literally losing sleep going over different design ideas in my head.
I didn’t want to buy and ship direct from a grower because I wanted to see the plants for myself. And, $ rip-off anyway.

So here is the real kicker. I had planned to ship them as “overnight”
You would not believe how much that costs now: TWO HUNDRED FIFTY DOLLARS.
Just for that not-heavy box.
The 2 day ship was 20bucks.

I got an osmanthus shrub shipped to me last year, from California, the box was twice as big and weighed probably 20lbs. Cost was 100bucks last year. Much farther away, much bigger and heavier package.
So I asked the guy why so expensive. GAS PRICES, he says.
Ten times more expensive to fly, then to drive. INSANE.

i saved for 4 years scrimped and saved
i did not want to owe My parents anything for it
to this day the thought of the wedding for me makes me puke
The woman who recently invited me to hers it was revolting
she made me SO uncomortable
she was SO demanding
The upthread wedding tho is so life affirming

And we we quit I gave that girl a hug

if you don't want to work, you don't it is as simple as that
the lady who asked me to her wedding
I think the word "defeat" was about right.
TWENTY FIVE YEARS!!!!!
I guess she thought her husband would be cured overnight of being a lazy
bum and somehow it would all work out and she'd never have to cop to
it and always the job she had would just be this thing for a hobby

and now really just has to go back to scratch after lying to herself for 25 years

There is a daughter of one of the coworkers here (who has a
Ukrainian background too and is from central NY originally) who put on the
same show for her mother and father yesterday. Same histrionics. He
pays for her mortgage and 3 kids. The mom watches the grands while
she sleeps all day and imagines herself as a rich fashionista heiress.

When she didn't get her way cashwise yesterday, her threat was that
grandma would never see the kids again.

Kids were back this ayem for granny daycare. As usual.

She will be back because she will need a car. or something.

The sooner she dumps him the better off she is.

Do you realize she has NEVER lived alone. Ever.

My parents have been raking leaves, a good sign!

I
really loathe this one boss, a nasty piece of work who has gone out of his way in the past to humiliate a friend. He is very bitter and disgusted with things in general. When his Mom died last year she left his sister, a lazy incompetent, as executor of the estate. It has been a nightmare and has only made him more embittered over family, etc.
I knew the old version of him who was a fun, friendly guy who liked people in general. I think this job has not helped much. He is looking to transfer if possible and I sure think it could help him pull out of this slump. My office is not going the way of this one. I feel really sorry for our manager, a young, beautiful woman who has been treated like the dog's dinner by way too many of the people here.
I have taken to waking in the middle of the night because I think I am always on the alert. Hyper vigilance and scanning maybe???

I'm going to spend the day with grandkids. One has a doctor's appointment this morning so he won't be going to kindergarten today and the other isn't 3 yet so she's still at home. I love them so I'm looking forward to it
My heart bleeds for Ukraine. It's amazing how humanity hasn't found humane ways of dealing with each other.

I wanted to send a blue and a yellow flower, but there’s nothing in “true blue” that would survive temperatures, or even indoors. So I settled for lavender.
Both are indoor plants, no need to take out to patio. But if they do go out to the patio, put in shade, not in direct sunlight. Though I think the yellow one would do ok in some sunlight, the lavender one no.
Best place for them to live is a bright window (east exposure is best, west is worst) but not in blaring direct sun, it will burn the leaves.
So in other words, morning sun exposure is better than afternoon sun.
Under a fluorescent lamp is good too, especially in winter, but regular window is fine too.
Important to give them at least 8hrs overnight dark, don’t leave them in a lit room overnight, will negatively impact blooming cycle..
Yellow = kalanchoe (a succulent!!)
Lavender = African violet
Instructions
I am not to water them (yet) I just watered them before shipment.
Stick my finger under a leaf, feel the soil, that is the wettest they should ever be.
I had them here for 2 weeks before I sent them , and watered them once per week during that time. That seemed adequate, though you might need twice per week in a hotter summer general weather (and interior).
They both came from a 70 degree nursery.
I literally had to run a heater at 70 degrees here for them in my spare room, because my house is only 52 degrees and that’s too cold for them.
that was a real hassle because I had to keep the room door closed to retain the heat, and my TV is in that room so I couldn’t watch tv for 2 weeks. Which is why I sent it to you early, I couldn’t take it anymore.
But the REAL saga was “how to pack these for shipping”
I am not kidding you that I spent every night for the past 2 weeks “seeing it in my dreams” I am so glad to be done with them, I was literally losing sleep going over different design ideas in my head.
I didn’t want to buy and ship direct from a grower because I wanted to see the plants for myself. And, $ rip-off anyway.
So here is the real kicker. I had planned to ship them as “overnight”
You would not believe how much that costs now: TWO HUNDRED FIFTY DOLLARS.
Just for that not-heavy box.
The 2 day ship was 20bucks.
I got an osmanthus shrub shipped to me last year, from California, the box was twice as big and weighed probably 20lbs. Cost was 100bucks last year. Much farther away, much bigger and heavier package.
So I asked the guy why so expensive. GAS PRICES, he says.
Ten times more expensive to fly, then to drive. INSANE.

I put some scotch tape around the damage
I did not find super glue but some gorilla glue
Got it all over my hands
It hurts

I love when they fight amongst themselves in the gop.
Like chechens and buryata, except without guns (for now).
I hope they scratch each other’s eyes out. And throw Cawthorn and Gaetz in there with them.

i saved for 4 years scrimped and saved
i did not want to owe My parents anything for it
to this day the thought of the wedding for me makes me puke
The woman who recently invited me to hers it was revolting
she made me SO uncomortable
she was SO demanding
The upthread wedding tho is so life affirming

And we we quit I gave that girl a hug
In the tunnel of love
You never know how great a kiss can be
Until you stop at the bottom of a ferris wheel--Fabares Shelley - Palisades Park

if you don't want to work, you don't it is as simple as that
the lady who asked me to her wedding
I think the word "defeat" was about right.
TWENTY FIVE YEARS!!!!!
I guess she thought her husband would be cured overnight of being a lazy
bum and somehow it would all work out and she'd never have to cop to
it and always the job she had would just be this thing for a hobby
and now really just has to go back to scratch after lying to herself for 25 years
There is a daughter of one of the coworkers here (who has a
Ukrainian background too and is from central NY originally) who put on the
same show for her mother and father yesterday. Same histrionics. He
pays for her mortgage and 3 kids. The mom watches the grands while
she sleeps all day and imagines herself as a rich fashionista heiress.
When she didn't get her way cashwise yesterday, her threat was that
grandma would never see the kids again.
Kids were back this ayem for granny daycare. As usual.
She will be back because she will need a car. or something.
The sooner she dumps him the better off she is.
Do you realize she has NEVER lived alone. Ever.

This agreement to not examine the past later became known as the pacto del olvido (pact of forgetting). In November, 2008, the country’s highest court of appeals ruled 14-3 against Garzón. The matter appeared to be settled, but two months later a far-right organization filed a criminal suit against Garzón, accusing him of “judicial prevarication,” knowingly overstepping his authority, and violating the pacto del olvido.--Baltasar Garzon, Spanish Judge Responsible for Exhumation of Lorca and Many Others Citizens' Corpses, On Trial

My parents have been raking leaves, a good sign!
I
really loathe this one boss, a nasty piece of work who has gone out of his way in the past to humiliate a friend. He is very bitter and disgusted with things in general. When his Mom died last year she left his sister, a lazy incompetent, as executor of the estate. It has been a nightmare and has only made him more embittered over family, etc.
I knew the old version of him who was a fun, friendly guy who liked people in general. I think this job has not helped much. He is looking to transfer if possible and I sure think it could help him pull out of this slump. My office is not going the way of this one. I feel really sorry for our manager, a young, beautiful woman who has been treated like the dog's dinner by way too many of the people here.
I have taken to waking in the middle of the night because I think I am always on the alert. Hyper vigilance and scanning maybe???

I forgot about tank sandwich guy from 2014!! He was awesome. When the ruuskies pointed heavy Artillery at him when he was in the turret he offered them a sandwich

I noticed a couple people make some jokes about “snacks” in some of these 2022 war posts, mostly before today. Y
I just assumed it was the same joke line, but maybe not.

I’ll post the next snack joke, when/if I see one.
