adrimettPain level - High end of moderate
No update yesterday, because through a good stretch of the day there were frequent power flickers. I don't know why. There was no storm, it wasn't hotter than normal, but the power flickered off multiple times, and I didn't want to risk damage to my PC, so in the end I just left it off and didn't bother updating here.
I haven't said much about the porch plants lately, but the pea plant that I thought was done for ended up growing another stem from its base, so there's a small chance I might get another pea pod or two before the growing season is done. The tomatoes have also been ripening a lot this past week, and I've already eaten multiple little cherry tomatoes right from the vine, and there are plenty more on the way. I may still have green tomatoes left at the end, but I can try slicing and frying them, or maybe pickling them, so nothing will go to waste if I can help it.
Plus my citronella geranium things have started to flower, which was really unexpected because I hadn't read anything about them flowering! But now I have some cute new purple flowers to look at when I step outside, and that makes me smile.
