Ketch-Up Day

 

How are you? Watcha been doing?

I've been:

Staining the fence.  

 

AND

 Removing my grapevine

AND

Planting a Razzmatazz, developed in North Carolina for North Carolina growing. 

I hate cutting down  plants. Its right up there with  destroying books. On the other hand, it's also like staying in a bad marriage that's not going to get better vs getting a divorce. So,  I divorced my grapevine and am starting over😐.  It just wasn't right for these conditions.  Who'd a thought? Note to self: Research before buying plants I'm unfamiliar with.

AND

I ordered a Dwarf Granny Apple.  Woot. Woot.  This one I did research:)

AND

Inside:

See the leaves at the bottom. That was the size of them when the HH first got me this plant. I left it in place for several months, it stayed healthy and it would get new leaves, but didn't get any bigger. Then I moved it to where it caught the morning sun, watered it more and gave it a teensy bit of coffee grounds and it took off and lived up to its name: Elephant Ear. I'm not sure if it was the sun, extra watering, caffeine or a combo which increased its size.  What do you think?

ALSO INSIDE:

Tis the season.

 

  

 AND

We had a visitor sitting under the porch light.

 AND

I got my mammo last week.  The fun never ends.  Cough. Cough. Choke. Choke. Wait while I hack up that furball.

 The imaging center has been giving out gifts after mammos the past two years. Last year it was a pink silk rose.  This year, as you can see a cup, a pen, lip balm and a nail file.

Given all the warnings that are coming out from CEOs and Researchers, why aren't there guardrails on AI? For those that live outside of the US are you facing this problem too? 

Is money and power that important?
