Really?
Because we've been cutting taxes for the rich for forty years.
And now three guys own as much as the bottom 50% of Americans and the economy sucks for working people.

I bought a Stone Pine at the grocery store today (sold as a tiny Christmas tree).
Tomorrow I'll up pot it & also take cuttings of the lowest branches to try to root.
This tree is perfect for here as it's good in zones 7a-11 (no fear of freezing), likes full sun, & doesn't like much water.

Did you know your teeth have ligaments?
I didn't - until yesterday when I went to the dentist for a vicious toothache on one of the teeth they used for a bridge.
Come to find out my far back jaw tooth was higher than the original tooth.
It hurts!

It's a miserably dreary day today.
Thank goodness I had plants to up pot!
I up potted 6 of the 7 (6-7) plants I bought yesterday. The Fern in the dining room.
The Buddleja had 2 acorns in it from 1 of the massive oak trees at the nursery. I also had 6 Pride of Barbados seeds my spouse

After being embarrassed yesterday in the city by how ratty my nails looked, today I cleaned them up & repainted them.
Now I see today is a planting day (Taurus, 2nd qtr), as is Fri (Taurus 3rd qtr), & Sun-Tues (Cancer 3rd qtr).
Looks like another manicure is in my near future. %)

I just harvested some Pyracantha seeds from berries which followed me home from the nursery.
I have a container of soil in which I put odds & ends from various plants.
A clove I accidently dropped in it came up. So figuring it's hospitable, I sprinkled the new seeds on it.
Now they can stratify.

I had to have work done at the dentist on my new bridge.
To soothe my soul afterwards I made a stop at the nursery.

6 yds of soil delivered.
Seeing the pile, I now wish I had ordered 3 times that amount.
