(354, garden, health)
Tuesday:
So, yes, i will pony up $5 a month so maybe i won't miss aurora IN MY BACKYARD.
Aurora in MEXICO???!! https://spaceweather.com/archive.php?view=1&day=24&month=04&year=2023
And my pepper seedlings have been tortured by the low temps. I don't expect 40°F last night so i didn't think to bring in the seedlings, much less follow the advice at https://www.sandiaseed.com/blogs/news/can-peppers-survive-40-degree-weather . I don't think i've ruined the plants. I hope. I've got to start bringing the seedlings in at night and i'll cover the peppers and tomato plant i set out. Hopefully by the time i can't carry things, the seed dome will be sufficient. I should have thought to get that out already.
On itching notes, i have a long red welt along my clavicle. I've no idea what caused it. My ankles and feet are achy. Am i in some flare? Ugh.
Wednesday am:
The plants finally arrived late afternoon, worse for wear. I wrote the vendor, and he wants me to see if they bounce back. Which, OK. It's not clear he can get FedEx to cover the loss, and it's REALLY CLEAR who screwed up here. My sister said that it sounded like the FedEx people were willing to say anything to excuse their screwups, like a teenager testing lies with their parents to see what sticks.
