How Does My Garden Grow?

[days_unfolding]

Zara had the zoomies and was running up and down the hall next to my office room. Then she came in and was looking for a perch on one of the bookcases. She seemed put out that I have it full of books. The nerve! Don't I know that bookcases are cat trees?

Success! At Ace Hardware, I bought an Italian parsley, chives, and a full-size tomato plant (as opposed to a cherry tomato) on which the label said that it was good for containers. They did have basil, oregano, and dill, so I needn't have worried. I also bought some dirt, although I'll need more, and some fertilizer. The plants are now in the guest bathroom with the door closed to keep the cats out because it's a little cold for the plants. It's supposed to warm up on Wednesday.

I'm going to need more pots. I ordered some grow bags for the cherry tomatoes.

I thought that chives are cold-tolerant, and indeed, they are. I'll plant it first and get it outside. We have a frost advisory tonight, so I'll wait until tomorrow to plant it.

I looked at chairs on which to sit out in my little garden, but it occurred to me that I have folding camp chairs. I'd keep them inside and bring them out when I want to sit outside. That would work. Might as well get more use from them.

Looked at some more online Calculus classes that start "anytime," but holy cow, are they expensive. I think taking one at Lincoln Land would be cheaper, but I need to doublecheck.

China has new COVID-19 cases. I don't see how we can contain the virus until we have a vaccine.
