I’m pretty excited about today. Not only is it supposed to be extremely nice out, but I am going to try to start a small garden. I have seeds to grow okra. I absolutely LOVE fried okra, so it sure as heck sounds like something I will enjoy growing, if it is willing to grow for me.

My succulent that I bought a while back, it’s growing! It has almost doubled its height since I bought it. I am extremely thrilled. It is my first indoor plant to succeed and actually grow. I hope it doesn’t decide to die now.

I started my garden yesterday! It is a small one, but we’ve got 2 rows of okra, 2 rows of cauliflower and 1 row of mix between them both. It would be so darn cool if everything decides to grow! I’ve never had much luck with gardens, but if I can grow a succulent, maybe I can manage to grow a garden. I have plant food which should help it along. I can’t use plant food on the cauliflower until it is 3 inches tall.

Once it is pickable, I’m going to make steamed cauliflower and lots of fried okra!

Today is my birthday. I’m now 22 years old. I’m kind of bummed because I wanted to stay just 21 years old forever.

I saw the cutest little baby turtle yesterday. He is just tiny and cute. It’s not even a snapping turtle. I looked it up online and I believe that he is a common map turtle. From what the information said, he’s called that because of the lines on his body. It looks like a map. One heck of a crazy map, anyway. They like to eat snails and such. They can grow up to be 12 inches.

Yesterday was so far from exciting it’s not funny. It was just extra boring. More boring than usual. You would think it’d be more exciting considering it was my birthday, but it wasn’t. My dad called and wished me a happy birthday. My mom kind of forgot, and I live with her, lol. My friend forgot my birthday. It’s the first year he didn’t give me anything. Last year it was flowers he picked out of my neighbors yard and the year before that it was a drawing he did of a rose. This year really wasn’t all that special.

I don’t know how fast I can write 100 words, but I have to make it pretty freakin* fast because my mom just showed up and it turns out she only works for 4 hours today and now she’s home for the day. Which really sucks because I had to work on my penpals website today. It’s the only day that I ever have time to do something like that. I really, really, wish she could have warned me so I could have been prepared and got everything done before now. Oh well. Nothing I can really do about it.

* I didn't realize I'd swore until I got to take a second look later on. I'd typed and didn't proof read.

Yesterday was kind of fun. More fun for Aubree than it was for me, though. I took her to the elementary park in Coldwater. Their is a giant castle thing that she can walk through and is big enough for me to walk through with her. Tons of slides for her to go down. She never wanted to leave. I almost had to drag her out of there.

The one thing that really bugged me about the park was the fact that they had bicycle cops riding around the park with a gun. Makes me wonder what goes on there.
