Planting a New Blog!

So, first I want to say thank you to everyone who has followed me and supported me through the life of this blog. You all have been wonderful!! 🙂

After ma died 18 months ago, I’ve struggled. Ma was truly my best friend and the ‘anchor’ I had in this world. At times I still feel like I’m just floating…not having that ‘home’ to hold on too. I stopped writing because honestly, it was too hard. Ma was so so much a part of this blog and when I go back and read some posts, it makes me cry.

When Terri and I were little, ma grew African Violets on a 1970’s shelf with a couple of grow lights. She was carrying on what has become a family tradition because gramma also grew and loved African Violets.

As I quarantined a few years ago, I started buying plants to gussy up my house and make it look like spring all year ’round. One plant led to another and through 4 years of trial and error…reading everything I could get my hands on…taking some online workshop/classes, I feel like I know enough to yack about them (I know…I can yack about anything… 🙄)

So…I created a new blog called Plants & Projects! I’m going to share so so much about everything plants…and projects too! And I want any followers I might acquire to do the same. I want us to learn from each and share with each other…a plant family so to speak! I know Terri will love this…after much begging, I convinced her to take 1 plant and now she has a little jungle herself. It truly is addictive.

I never realized I had a green thumb…I thought it was a bad thumb because I used to kill plants I’d get. But lo and behold, I have one…like everyone does. Trust me on this!

Anyhoot, thank you all for everything and I hope you follow me on my new journey. So many of you reached out to me after ma passed and I want to say how much I truly appreciate that. Truly. Susan, you especially have been absolutely, positively wonderful…I got through a lot because of you. I hope you know how much I love you!

Love,

Kristi

P.S. Love you ma.
