Today I "hit the pavement" as they say, on my job search. Jewel/Osco has a huge empty plant greenhouse in the parking lot that seems full of promise to me (as in hanging out with the plants). Alas, their only opening is for night shift stocker (stalker?) and I don't know that I have those qualifications. No other places in the little strip mall needed assistance except a dress shop. So I have an application to complete.
On the way back to my sister's, I distributed the Nasturtium seeds in the dirt between sprouting grass, dandelions, a crushed Marlboro flip-box, an empty prescription bottle, wadded up McDonald's hamburger paper, and a stomped-on Mt. Dew bottle. It will be interesting to see if any of the urban-guerilla greening will sprout. Nasturtiums thrive on neglect and flower more profusely in poor soil........and are edible! I'm all for edible lovelies.
