I have to post these pictures because I am all fascinated with my spider plants.  It started out with a little baby that grew into a medium sized baby.  That shot up a couple of new babies in the dirt…not the kind that hang in the air, just from the soil.  So check it.  This is the mama plant (left) in the same pot with one of the babies (right). 

You know, just your typical spider plant.  It hangs in my kitchen window which gets north-western sun.  I took the other baby and put it in its own pot and left it outside and some monster photosynthesis is going out there because seriously, it’s like the Octomom of vegetation.

This thing has a dozen shoots coming out as thick as drinking straws and babies are forming everywhere.  As for the plant itself, the leaves have become thick, dark green and stiff not at all like the supple leaves on the mama and sister.  The mama plant has never had aerial offshoots so I put her outside too.  Seriously though, this fascinates me.

Yeah, I know.

It amazes me how really sad losing my blog(s) made me.  It just seems odd since I rarely blog at all.  So now I’m back here where I can resume never blogging.

I feel better…sorta.  But not really.

Back when blogging meant a lot to me, I had backups to backup my backups.  If BP was half as anal thorough, it’s fail safe would never have failed.  But that was back then.  At some point I cleaned up my computer and got rid of the 9 million folders worth of website backups.  Oh, I kept something but it was nothing I could use and I suppose it would have helped if I’d backed up my database sometime within the last decade.  But I didn’t.  So here I am, 8 years later starting over…really over.  I’ve had a bazillion archives over a span of maybe 6 domains and now I don’t have any.

I guess that’s ok.  It really is kind of like keeping old colouring books.  Nice to look at, makes me smile but that was then and this is now and I’m different…but the same.

Blogging doesn’t mean to me what it used to, that’s true, but it sucks to lose the part that did.

PS:  Since this is new, you should do the member thing because I’m sure I’ll be writing private posts every here and there.  Right now it’s set to self activation so you don’t have to wait for me to approve you or anything.
