Foxglove

 (This was Thursday's post, published Friday morning)

It was a comfortable temperature today. I put headphones in because a neighbor up the street is having a new roof put on, and the constant nail gun noises were rough on my brain. 

I went outside. Cleaned off the patio table, again. Got set up and turned around and saw a new plant. One I've never seen before. I took pictures of it and shared to the work Plants channel and was informed it is Foxglove. Wonderfully dangerous to humans and dogs. But look how pretty it is. I kind of feel bad. like. Y'all are trying to kill me out here, nature. 

My plants friends at work said "don't touch it. Keep your dog away from it." Toffee doesn't eat plants - she's more of an eat all the twigs and shit out there. So I'm not really worried about her contacting it.

I'll figure out a way to protect us all, a little fence or something. Doug said it was there last year but honestly, I do not remember seeing it. Maybe it comes and goes so quickly. 

Didn't get a walk today because Doug sat down in the livingroom and called his Aunt, and then I ordered Chinese food. He didn't take the dog for a walk, so I couldn't walk inside and... it started raining. Gotta feed the Foxglove.
