I just started...

4:38 pm

hurshy

hi bea :)

4:38 pm

hurshy

why such a late start for you today?

4:39 pm

BzznBea

I went to a workshop on gardening for pollinators and had a two hour drive to and from. Left home at 6:45 am

4:39 pm

hurshy

wow

4:40 pm

BzznBea

It was a geeky Friday.

4:41 pm

hurshy

cool

4:42 pm

hurshy

i keep trying to convince my parents to replace the lawn with more like wildflowers and native plants and stuff, just with paths through it perhaps, but they don't want to

4:45 pm

BzznBea

It's a lot of work. And if they have an HOA, that could be a problem. If they only plant some ornamental natives for pollinators, that helps.

4:45 pm

hurshy

no HOA

4:46 pm

hurshy

we do have some flowers and things, idk if they are native

4:48 pm

Never seen it before either, just checked the dictionary

5:44 pm

hurshy

well, every word is a made up word, in that at some point it was made up by someone, and of course, what i meant when i said i made it up was that i didn't expect it to be a word, because i didn't know it was one

5:46 pm

hurshy

the triumph of a lucky guess, and all that

7:02 pm

BzznBea

That's a good word!
