Your mums the green thumb right @rav3n have I got that right?
that might be good for it after all

[rav3n]

yep you got that right @ArraDreaming i agree, it's much safer in her hands. it's survival rate probs increased by 50% because of her.

Welp you’re probably not wrong Some of my seedlings did not cope very well with the wind here last night… I am trying to toughen them up for the reel world though they can’t stay in their little house forever so I have been putting them out to experience the elements at times, I was not expecting that much wind

Not garden related but if you would like to know how my day is going so far we just got back from the park to find a giant wasp in our house and then when I went to hit it with a tea towel I knocked our container of coffee grounds onto the floor… and the wasp is still in our house somewhere so no coffee and a stinging insect that could k!ll our kid is in our house @rav3n

[rav3n]

yikesss! hopefully those seedlings can recover? 

@ArraDreaming oh gosh!!! i have a massive fear of wasps and bees so this literally sounds like a nightmare to me. how are you and the kiddos feeling so far? is it possible to trap the wasp in a room or open windows to get it out? or is that going to make things worse and tempt for wasps to come...

[ArraDreaming]

Yeah was it windy at your joint @rav3n

Nah I k-lled it but not before aggravating it lol

[rav3n]

there was a bit of a sharp breeze here and there, didn't last long though @ArraDreaming 

feels weird to celebrate a wasp dying but... yay? glad you're all safe. have you ever had crazy spiders or snakes enter your house before?  

[ArraDreaming]

Nah, but this will be our first summer in this house and we back on to a creek/river with lots of reeds and shrubs around so we will be have to be very careful
In one of our old houses we had a blue tongue lizard that liked to laze in the sun in our driveway we had to be careful coming and going because I’m fairly sure he thought he owned the place and would not budge
Funny story about that lizard actually, when my Mrs and I got married we didn’t do the typical big thing we just did our ceremony at the beach with only necessary people and then then had like a party at our place in our garden and the lizard made an appearance it was just lazing about in the middle of the path in the sun and everyone just had to walk around him for ages like, smack bang in the middle of everyone and then he was like already I’m out dudes cya
Not at all scared of people
Maybe he thought it was his party @rav3n

[rav3n]

hahahah yep that house might've been yours but that driveway/outdoor area was definitely the lizard's property. how nice of the lizard to let you all party at his place, seems like his social battery ran low though 😆

@ArraDreaming my friend literally sent me a video of a blue-tongued lizard in her garage a few days ago, and she was trying to shoo it away from her car... maybe it'll return soon to claim her driveway too.
