I knew (knew!) this would happen. It was why I was leery of complaining too much about Mr. Upstairs. As bad as he was, I knew it could be worse. And it is. The new tenants just showed up. They’re stomping so loudly that my floor is vibrating. This is hugely NOT OKAY.

Brick, Mortar, Sunlight, and Wood
This is the wall just outside the door to my building. The sunlight hitting it caught my attention, so I went inside and got my camera. I took the first photo while standing right next to the wall, looking down it. I’ve never been that close to it before, so I’d never noticed that there was a small piece of burned wood stuck in the mortar. Weird!

I’m definitely planting more of these next year, and in different colors, too. For one, I’ve proven that they are impossible to kill. Second, they are prolific bloomers. Just the three stalks I planted have maybe 50 flowers on them. Third, the blooms last quite awhile.
