Houseplant

I don’t own any house plants. Why?

Because I am crap at caring for them.

I’d forget to water them.

So it is just best that I don’t have them in my house.

I do love receiving flowers though on my birthday, especially because I love how they smell. Usually though flowers only last for a week or 10 days before you have to throw them away.

        I started working, and then was in a car accident. I have been dealing with a ton of health issues. Things that needed to addressed and had I not been hit most likely would not have been. It was already hard long 3 years with my breast cancer. Now it specialty to drs and lots of testing. Been very drained, but hanging by the grace of God!!

    We both kill houseplants, but I tend to do it by over rather than underwatering!

    I don’t have houseplants because my cats would destroy them!

        Actually, it is a bamboo stalk, in the shape of a heart, that is in a vase with water. All I have to do is make sure there is enough water and clean it out every month.
