This brings up a lot of guilt I have for killing so many spotted lantern flies. I hate that it’s so necessary

It’s my guy!!

This absolutely applies to me. I’m so sick of computers and software and security and subscriptions and vendors. I just want my own animal sanctuary with chickens and otters and baby goats god dammit!

I’m so glad you asked! That little nub did eventually grow its last leaf and eventually fell off. So I was back to full nub. So I decided dig her up because I was really curious to see what the heck was going on with the root structure.

And man when I saw all the BABIES this mother had birthed. It was like a tiny potato harvest. I had at least 10 bulbs in the soil. So I nursed them. Some of them didn’t make it but some of them look like the big one you see here. Unfortunately it seems mother nubby is on her way out. She sprouted teeny leaf but that little leaf was very little and met its final demise by the hand of my new kitten crew. I need to dig it up again and see what brewing under ground.

These grow incredibly slow but there is promise that mama has passed on some strong children.

Please ignore the tape. I have some naughty diggers in this house haha.

Ask me again in another year of there progress!

When someone says pay the cat tax…

You don’t hesitate

This is good advice. I’m not sure I ever saw our bylaws so i will inquire with my neighbor about them. Luckily she’s a very good record keeper as well as myself so we’re high accountable people. We decided on a banks and will be setting that up this week.

Thank you!

Appreciate the advice KittenBiscuits!

Correct. We both have an equal vested interest in maintaining our house. I actually prefer calling it a cooperative rather than an HOA. I think I’ll do that. For better or worse, the only bullies in this cooperative are my cats. One of them is named Carol if that tells you anything.

In most circumstances, I’d agree with you.

It’s a new build and we are both the first owners so this is brand spanking new.

We have decided to most likely go with Axos bank. They have high interest rate and appear to be small community HOA friendly. They have a whole page dedicated to it.

We’re going to split up our dues into a savings and checking. Like you said one for emergencies, and one for general maintenance. I will need to locate the bylaws that were most likely setup but the sellers for both of us. They also setup our LLC. We’re just in the beginning stages of everything so getting the bank account is one less stress off our backs. There’s already things we want to implement. Appreciate the advice!

Oh dear, the internet is leaking again… Call the locksmith 🗣️

Probably right 💅

If you’re curious about who still needs checks, I need them for random things for my kid’s school because they themselves are ancient. I also know some people who refuse to pay their rent electronically because some asshole landlords love to tack on bullshit “electronic payment” fees. But I agree with you in every single way. I wish credit unions were more accessible in more areas though. It’s not like you’ll find out around every block like a traditional bank.

Gosh, I wish I could put my plants outside but they will be instantly destroyed by city nature. I’m not even sure how she ended up like this. Her leaves just fell off naturally and never regenerated. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Thank you for this info! I feel like this applies to just general care though. I’m looking to learn specifically what happens when I have a healthy stump, how to stimulate stem/leaf growth.

It’s very happy, I’ve harvested a lot of seedlings that are growing beautifully and I think mama are growing more in the roots. I’m just confused why she be like she be 😅

Every night 🥰

You and me both 😂

I swear I love all my special plants! 😅😅

Just in time for the release of the new dead in the eyes emoji.
