It's too late now, but did I make the right call in throwing away my tomato and pepper plants?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Absent divine intervention, tomatoes and peppers will not make it through the winter in your climate.

Maybe I'll leave those plants in the planter boxes Hubby put on the front of the house. Some of them are annuals, I'm not sure if any are perennials. As I told him repeatedly, "I do not garden." I watered them until I couldn't cope and the 100 degree sun finished baking them, so I don't know if they're actually dead or stunned. I'll wait till Spring to see if they've joined the Choir Invisible.

I talked with a person who has openings on his team. We're both not super sure I would be great for the current openings, but he wants to get headcount for another thing that is 100% in my wheelhouse. Unfortunately, I have to wait to see if that position will exist.
I mean, it's not like I want to move before Christmas anyway, so I just have to figure out how to keep doing a good job and keep my anxiety from eating me, starting with my bottom.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
My mom is in the hospital. It's not all that bad- she has cellulitus in her leg, and the doctor(s) decided she needed IV antibiotics. I spoke to her, and she seems pretty good, all things considered.
Also, I whacked my leg into a cabinet this morning and it hurts.(Also starting to bruise nicely)
Monday, once again, you suck.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Sorry about your mom, Sheryl, I hope she does well.
Good luck, shrift.

Given that and all the previous advice, I moved all the plants close to the house, under what shelter there is, they got watered well today by the rain, and we'll see which lives through the winter and which dies before spring.
