Good morning.

This is a daily post for “casual” conversation. If you want to post or talk about something non autism related this is where to do it. For example if you want to info dump about your special interest but it doesn’t fall into “autism related” then you can post it here in the comments. All other rules are still active, be respectful to each other.

Mother convinced me to get five more trellises total which is more than double what's out there but it's raining so I'm not planting right now and also that's so much energy I'm scared I'll keel over while planting.

I didn't keel over but I was sick. Not related to the gardening, probably something with the enlarged spleen. Anyway, there's now 64 tomatoes planted. We'll see how many survive.
