Beauty is thy name!

That on my bed's laundry, and behind me's my closet, ignore that, lol. That's my "lucky bamboo" Dracaena. I've wanted one for a long time...this is actually technically three plants. My new baby! Technically, this…
Spiritual health

I know, you wouldn't take me for the religious type, huh? Well, lets just say it's something I hope to work on in 2009. At this point, then, you're probably thinking that I've got a ton on my plate next year...and gosh,…

Seedlings update: Some Trouble!

Attack of the killer mold! Aaaaaahhh!!! So far I'm mostly keeping it under control. It's been after my miniature rose and mimosa tree. *grumbles at it* Not anything else. The wolfberry seedlings fell down and died, =o…
