I'll need to develop a green thumb, but one of the first things I want to do is pull up all the monkey grass.

I wish you joy. Monkey grass is one of those things that are going to survive nuclear war. It has little bulbs and you never get them all. If you really want it gone, you're talking about an investment in Roundup Pro.

Connie, you did the civilized thing and wrote the letter. Nothing obligates you to visit or go to the funeral.

I hope Emmett's okay and it was just one of those strange growing pain things. I'm going to the doctor this afternoon for a mysterious pain that was, of course, much worse yesterday and got better the minute I decided to go to the doctor.

{{Emmett & family}} I'm sharing his hurty pain today. Pretty sure it is a pinched nerve. My whole arm shoulder to finger tips, ouch. I'll go get cracked tomorrow. Today I am being lazy and popping pain pills.

I'm pretty sure my sister has a wardrobe full of crabby pants.

Meanwhile, in a life where I already have too much to do, my friend with the twins just called and asked if I could please help baby wrangle at a pediatrican's appointment today. She has two sick babies and hasn't had much sleep, so I am off to do a good deed. Please adjust my karma accordingly.

People plant monkey grass on purpose, as a long bladed ornamental, in clumps or as a border. My neighbors have it.

I don't think so. Monkey grass is an ornamental.
