well, i got home tonight with yet 2 more prescriptions for paul. he seems in good spirits and getting around a bit. i showed him what happens to my tomato plants when you (I) forget to water them in the morning before i leave. lol, i got home and walked into the patio and there they were saying WATER US!!!! paul got a kick out of it. i told him to check this out: i water them and in 10 minutes they'll be right back up perky as ever! sure enough. i know it stresses them out but hey, i'm toughening them up!
