chocolatepotI just realized that my last two weeks' worth of posts hadn't been crossposting from Dreamwidth, so I've made them post to LJ. Sorry if they all jump to the front of your flists.
Recently I bought a little Way2Gro system at the hardware store to maximize my tabletop gardening space, since I can hang it from the curtain rod - I transplanted my little oregano plant into the bottom, and planted basil seeds in the middle and coriander in the top. There are little sprouts of basil! Nothing for coriander yet, maybe because that pot gets the least amount of sun, maybe because the seeds are more hardcore. The spindly basil plants I already have I transplanted into one larger pot, and then yesterday at the farmer's market I bought a flowering maple and a lavender and transplanted them into two other pots I bought. On Sunday and Monday, I took the basil and hanging plants out back and let them get some air and a little direct sun (in the case of the basil; the only place I can hang the others is in the shade, but the Way2Gro booklet says even ambient outdoors light is way better than ambient indoors light, so). I really need a child or pet because I'm calling them "my babies" in my head.
I also made four pairs of undies over the weekend. Four. And two are decent, so.
In the end, I talked to Mom about it and she'd like my old computer, so I did keep the new one and am setting it up right now. (By which I mean, preparing to install Windows 10, because 8.1 is horrendous and I hate it.) Oh well, I am stupid and selfish and this laptop is enormous and the keys are different, I'll just have to deal with that.
Things I don't want to deal with: scheduling and wrangling for the reenactment at the end of the month. It's actually mostly done! But it feels like it's hanging over my head.
