this was no scaredy squirrel...

Some how, between today and two days ago, I have lost some more plants. Some have been knocked over and their thin corpses shrivel in the unrelenting light... While others are abruptly uprooted by scavengers looking for their next meal. Will I ever keep something alive? My plants that were doing the best are now broken from their roots, unable to be replanted. The stalks lie in disarray, the only evidence that I cared for them is the terracotta chalice. I could not save them from this, I may never be able to-- *sniff*

  1. I'm afraid you may have inherited that lack of a green thumb from me. I seem to kill plants too or can't get them to keep growing. But your pictures of flowers, people and places bring much joy and life to others.
