I’m excited this morning by how my plants are thriving. I’ve got “flats” of seedlings that are getting taller by the day! I’ve got a mint cutting that had looked dead but is now putting off new leaves! My rosemary cutting is still green and bright and seems to be doing well. I just got a new cutting of a plant called ‘wandering Jew’ and I got it potted last night. 
Even the one potted herb I have, feverfew, is doing well!
It’s such a small thing to be happy about, but it’s thrilling to see my plants doing well.

Re-reading my last posts about “what do you believe?” keeps making my brain go on to the next question, “Why do you believe what you believe?” I already explained some of my reasons for why, but I think it’s an important question for anyone to consider, even if you don’t share the reasons with anyone. I’m more frustrated by people who don’t ever ask that question of themselves than I am by just about anything else. I think not asking “WHY?” can lead too easily to a ‘herd mentality’ (where everyone goes with the flow and stays safe in the herd).

We’re setting up a fish tank. So far we just have water in with the filters running, but I still enjoy looking and listening to it. My kids and cats are entranced by it too. It’ll be fun to watch everyone enjoying it even more once we get plants and fish into it.

I couldn’t concentrate on one topic for this post. My brain is hopping from one idea to another today, so you got a scatterbrained post! Enjoy!

I ask myself the question, “why do I believe what I believe?” all the time. I am an eternal seeker and I cannot accept something as truth just because someone told me it was. Sometimes I wish I could have blind faith, and live blissfully ignorant. But I just can’t.

from a fellow-scattered mama… don’t you just LOVE propagating plant cuttings!! it can become addicting. i really enjoyed doing that when i lived in tennessee. i haven’t done any cuttings in a long time. but when twilli gets older, it’s DEFINITELY something i’ll introduce her to.
glad to see you are enjoying LIFE! oh, and ‘wandering jew’ is a lovely plant. they spread like mad! hehehe
