@LadyFi | No Jokes of the Day today
Click here to reply to @LadyFi "Good afternoon, my swellcast family. Good afternoon. I'm sorry there'll be no jokes of the day today. I apologize, but I'm finding it hard to laugh today. Today my father would have been 76 years old. And yes, he died last year, but this is the first year that we've actually had to deal with it. The first year was numb, numb, numb, numbness. This year, everything's active and we remember everything."

Click here to reply to @LadyFi "Now the piles have varying diameters, like 10 to 25 centimeters in height. And with about nine piles driven into the ground per square meter. So they use oak and pine and alder and larch and elm, or the primary woods that we use for these piles because they were durable and they resisted to decay. So the enduring nature of Venice's wooden foundations led to the belief that wood buried in the mud remains preserved."

Click here to reply to @LadyFi "But it also involves the inevitable death and decay of plants that mirrors the natural rhythm of life, the circle of life, where there is both growth and loss. It teaches us the importance of accepting change, embracing the cynical nature of existence. Sometimes we learn from our mistakes because gardening is an experiment. You're going to make mistakes inevitably, but it's a chance to learn from those mistakes and adapt your approach for future successes. Because nature is unpredictable and unexpected things happen in the garden."
