TWOSDAY! 2/22/22

We had a terrible, horrible trauma the other day - think Kill Bill style knife injuries and attempted murder. The staff working was incredible though. We genuinely saved a person's life, and while it's an immensely sad situation I can't even emphasize how proud I was to be a part of that care. With the general way things have been the past couple years we definitely needed that win. I found out today that the patient will make a full recovery - physically at least. It will be a long road to mental recovery, but I am thankful they get the chance to try.

My seedlings aren't even really seedlings anymore - they're full blown plants in desperate need of better weather so I can get them in the ground. I've been hardening off the tomatoes and peppers outdoors, but the weather is about to get extra gross this week. We'll have 3 days of sleet, rain, and freezing temperatures. By this weekend it should be better though so hopefully by next week they can move permanently outside and then be planted by March 7 or so. I'll likely have to pot up some of the plants as they're rapidly outgrowing their 3" containers. I bought some gallon containers a few months ago and am feeling very good about that foresight. I'll definitely be keeping a close eye on the forecast going forward and I think in about two weeks I'll be able to post real garden pictures again.

Is it a good thing or bad thing to achieve your New Years resolution in February? I managed to learn the whistle! It's not consistent yet so I do still have a long ways to go, but I was practicing it the other day and managed to get a really good one. My husband was like "quick, do it again!" AND I DID! On command! A very satisfying feeling. I'll be continuing to get better and more consistent at it. If everyone could send some thoughts and prayers for the eardrums of my husband and cats, I'm sure they would be much appreciated.

Look! Plants!
