To quote The Fairly Odd Parents: “EVERYTHING I TOUCH DIES!!!”
I’ve killed. Again. Yep, yet another houseplant has been subjected to my tormenting. Er, I mean, love. I love plants. But my thumb is as brown as they come. I either overwater them or underwater them, and they DIE. *sigh* Ah well, Rest In Peace, palm-plant-in-the-corner.
Aside from mourning the loss of palm-plant-in-the-corner, I’m celebrating some HUGENORMOUS (yeah, it’s a word now) news that I can’t share with you minions just yet. So, hold tight, keep those fingers crossed…and somebody pinch me!


Heather,
I tried to kill a plant once but it wouldn’t die. That could be a story, Hmmm.
Anyway, congrats on the news-you-can’t-tell-us-just-yet! Can’t wait to hear it! Best to you!
Happy to know something wonderful is happening.
Frustrated by the wait.
Getting over self and settling in to wait for amazing and wonderful things to happen to Heather
You know, California houseplants don’t die, because they have “people”….
We’re going to try a garden this year. Wish us luck, I can’t grow houseplants either.
Now that I’ve thought about it…. I’ve killed silk plants before… Had a silk tree and the leaves started falling off. Sigh.
Sorry, forgot… *pinch*
Houseplants and gardens are two different things (I suspect this is because Mother Earth is a far better gardener than I). Good luck!!
And Eryc, OMG…you’re worse than I am–a silk plant? LOL!!!
Soon, my Minions *rubs hands greedily together* Soon…
Hi Heather:
I so relate!
I have high hopes of digging up a garden and a koi pond this spring. I have visions of speckled koi lazily swimming in the sun with flowers all around them. This is in tremendous contrast to the many dead houseplants I have.

Can I make a prediction? I’m thinking it has something to do with (dare I say it?) movie rights.
Maybe?
Anyway, sorry I’ve been hiding in the background for so long.
I think I also owe you a review. Let me get workin’ on that…
Murderer!!! Your poor little plant, send it to me – quick! LOL My houseplants are fine, it’s my outside plants that die. Maybe it’s because I hate the outside???
I have “one” plant that survives…me, the cats…the toddler…the husband just ignores it….
I’ve had the damn thing since college. It must have grown a backbone
Can’t wait to hear the news!!!!
Wait! I have a theory. Maybe palm-plant-in-the-corner isn’t dead. Maybe it’s just trying to fake me out until I feel REALLY BAD about it, then it’ll spring back to life with a “Ha ha! Fooled you!”
…or….maybe I’m in denial.
