Trala’s Tent

5 flower plants is 2 too many.
That's a lot of schlepping (carrying) in and out every day- I only schlep 2 and that's enough for me :)

Omg it is. And they are HEAVYYYYYYY.

The are easily my favourite hobby, but fuck me they take some work. Like every single day. I rotate with the lights, stay ahead of feed mixes, keep my grow area super clean, it all takes time. Not that I’m complaining mind, just highlighting as you well know, to produce wow factor plants it’s almost a part time job!

I am so close with those seeds C Bomb. Please help me not fuck em up.
 
Never gonna get caught up, but wanted to drop off some love! Hope you're doing great, Tra! :circle-of-love:
Where the fuck have you been?

I think of you every time I look at my mulberry bush (not a euphemism)

I was starting to think you were never coming back!

ps your dads memory plant is going strong :)
 
@Mr. Krip

Just got a couple of pics for you in case you ever log back in. My orange tree is bursting with beautiful fragrant orange blossom blooms. I’m expecting quite the orchidary come spring. Red line is suggesting orchidary is not in fact a word. and to that I say it fucking should be! I think the secret ingredient to my orange tree success is dogs piss. That’s my old boy Billy doing his bit.

That middle one is a bridal veil. I grew that from a sprig the size of a matchstick. I’m so proud of it. My mulberry bush on the other hand is a fail. I think it’s too shady there, like weather not mood. I also think I have too much going on in that garden. I’m going to get into it and do some sorting and planting.

The bottom one is your dads memory plant.

Anyway I hope you are adjusting to a life without your dad‘s hugs and voice. And if you ever need a shoulder, you have mine :)

I’ve had the best day. I have spring cleaned my house from top to bottom. My last job is to put these beauty’s in the flower room.

I haven’t spoken to another human all day. It has been so awesome. My boyfriend isn’t home for another two and a half hours and I’ve just poured a vodka. My mum had bipolar and I swear I have a bit, coz I legit don’t know how this night is gonna roll. I have narrowed it down to 3 possible vibes.

1. I drink this one vodka. Have a swim. Prepare dinner and greet my bf who has worked 12 hours like a good woman should.
2. Get smashed fast, boyfriend comes home to find me lone drunk dancing by the pool
3. Get smashed fast, boyfriend comes home to find me crying coz I’m a horrible human and he can do better

While I’m not 100%. I think I can rule out option 1.

Let’s strap ourselves in then and find out ;)

LOLLINGGGG

Cheers to you :)

Beautiful plants mate. I gave up booze years ago cos I'm an idiot when I drink. Chin, Chin, and eat something lol.
Heeee brew

Thank you. They are my favourite hobby.

I totally should. And me too. For me it’s a controllable vice if I stop at one. After one it’s game on. I still could go option 1 and I should eat something, but I highly doubt that’s gonna happen coz this vodka tastes like pure happiness. LOLLLL

Me too.

This just came on my Spotify. I also have this self sabotagey habit, where I pour petrol on the things I love most then strike a match and throw it.

Hopefully this isn‘t a 4th option sign coz I’ve just poured a second drink...

:laughtwo: :laughtwo: :laughtwo:

Hence why I gave up lol.
 
I love K. Flay especially Blood in the Cut. Did I tell you I love songs with swearing in them? The song that made me realize that is this one:


I don't understand why you drink but don't do cannabis. Cannabis isn't addictive but alcohol is. Maybe you've just tried the wrong strains for you.

Good morning Hashgirl :)

Your music taste is on fleek :)

I really love The Offspring. And no you didn’t tell me that.

Hashgirl I’m an oxymoron rolled in an impulsive contradiction of a human. I really am. I’m exhausting! I will try to explain me, which is hard coz I don’t even understand the things I do half the time.

So me an MJ. This will give you an example, while I was on holidays I rolled a small J every afternoon after I water raked. Every morning following I woke up and thought “I’m having a coffee and a J”. It took all my power not to and to wait till after I water raked. While I don’t physically withdraw, like cramp up or get sick. I get so mentally addicted to it. I haven’t had a smoke now since my last day of my holidays which was 2 weeks ago nearly. And I think about rolling a J every. Single. Morning. LOLLL But I don’t.

Alcohol, I started drinking late in life. I did the usual kiddy binge drinking, or if I was out and coked up I would drink, but I really didn’t like it. The taste or the smell. Reminded me of sad times as a kid. I used to drink Jim Beam if I did drink. I was in my very late 30’s when I started having one glass of red wine at night. I found it helped me sleep better and relax. After doing 12 steps I always liked to get loose every few months when out and coz drugs were out I’d go drink. I’d wake up sick then wouldn't do it again for months. Bottom line for me, I have never ever ever woke up and thought “I going to drink alcohol this morning” or felt like I was hanging out for it. Thats how I prefer to keep my vices. It is a habit I can semi control on a day to day basis. Well it is atm.

I didn’t end up getting too loose. Just got to the point music snuggled with my soul. My pool area has fairy lights and it feels so magical down there. My bf is waaaaaay too good for me. He got home and just grinned at me with all seeing eyes (no doubt he was thinking ffs woman lollll). He said I gotta eat, so I went and threw a salad together and he cooked salmon steaks on the BBQ, I was fast asleep by 21:30.

I feel great this morning. I think the soda water as my mixer keeps me hydrated.
 
I used to drink a bit lot years ago- this guy pretty much sums up my drinking career..
(I've been sober for almost 20 years...I say "almost" because I took a day off from sobriety at the ten tear mark...big mistake...)
 
I didn't listen to the song because I don't like the singer's voice but I looked up the lyrics and it sounds like you were a hard drinker.

I don't drink because:

A. I'd rather eat my calories than drink them.
B. When I drink, I often end up in tears.
C. Or, throwing up.
D. Or, passed out and not knowing how I got there.
E. Or, drinking so much that I wanted to rip my head off the next day.

None of these things are pleasant. I much prefer cannabis. Cannabis makes me happy and funny (in my opinion) and more sociable without all the unpleasant alcohol effects.

I have never heard that song, and it’s going straight to Spotify! I love it :)

I‘ve been clean longer than I used now I think. It’s funny how we feel some songs are written for us. I got on maybe my first or second year into sobriety, just a one off thankfully. But it was the same year this song came out. I thought he wrote it for me. I taped it on a blank tape from the radio and I listened to it every day as part of my serenity prayer.
