I'm thinking about getting a Peony ...

Mother Nature failed miserably when she engineered those plants. They are almost invariably
too top-heavy (when blooming) and then they just fall over. They do sell "peony cages", but
those are generally too big around for a brand new plant. May I suggest a tomato cage? And
be ready for ants.

Well I'm here with mom at the hospital. She's having a rough go of it. She has very high anxieties and has trouble getting the rest she needs because of it. It is not easy to see her like this. :(
Aww, (((Lost))). I hope and pray that her anxieties settle down soon, so she can get the rest that she needs.

    Aw Lost! {{{hugs}}} Surely the doctor's & nurses are aware and giving her something for that if they are able at the moment.

    EXCELLENT idea Bear!! We have some of those cages :) Mom had one and I did notice all the blooms drooped badly :?:
    And the ants!! :ohmy:

    find out how soon they can get her into cardio rehab - a good portion of that is geared toward dealing with anxiety

    Not mother nature, Bear. That's our fault; we're constantly messing with mother nature's designs... Think what we have done to the wolves. ;)

    Exactly right.

    More to tell about that... but I'll save it for tomorrow.

    He received a warning on Friday that if I did not have the refund in-hand by Monday morning, the
    county Sheriff would be taking a report.

    So... if the refund would be "in the mail" on Thursday, it would have arrived either Friday or today.

    Guess what.

    First on my agenda for Monday morning: Calling the Sheriff. See... I'm the type of person (call
    me crazy, whatever) where if I say I will do something... I DO IT. Unlike "some people". But
    we're also talking a nice chunk of money.
