the plant that could

this is the little plant that dean logan got all of his staff for christmas. my friend sue showed me hers and it is huge now. i think i might have a nice green thumb now. i used to kill every plant i had.

all of the plants shelly and i have had the last two years are thriving and i can tell they LOVE us. we do not have kids or pets quite yet so we treat our plants really really well. maybe too much attention. obviously we need a dog,cat, fish, and a child. :)

it is 24 degrees this morning. my sweet boss is letting sue and i go to a conference this morning in downtown providence. i will not be in the office until tomorrow. if i get a chance i am going to explore a little today after the conference. that is if i do not freeze my butt off.

i am a dork because i am excited about posting this little plant when it is full grown. if we can live in this cold tundra of a place i think the plant will do just fine.

the first....

so it is supposed to be spring here in rhode island. these little weeds pop up once a year here to let you know it is spring. they are really pretty and they are scattered around dead grass, leaves, and the trash all of the snow has left behind. they are a huge burst of color. they bloom and die.

we are going to texas and oklahoma for a week. we are excited and nervous all at the same time. it is hard making everyone happy. we love our families and want to see everyone.

it is currently around thirty five degrees here and i think seventeen tom. i have high hopes that it will hit at least fifty sometime this week. fifty and balmy. bikini weather. :)
