i hope you don't mind that i've replied to this post from the bean thread here, but it really is OT for there and i can go at length here. similar to me in that i did not have too much trouble with school but i often found certain topics a struggle (until later when i matured a bit more and...

wow, hope you can both get through these things now! i don't want to sidetrack this thread any more than i have already but i did read what you wrote. i could write many pages in response but i should do it in my own thread that i've already got going and let the bean thread get back to...

let the ground get warm enough and the beans sprout before mulching...
