You both have a 3 year old together. So I'm just guessing here, but are you exhausted and getting on each other's nerves simply from constantly being around each other and being parents?
Every relationship will have solvable and un-solvable problems. Some you've listed don't seem like a huge deal. Can you just text each other when on opposite sides of the apartment?
Maybe you need some time to socialize outside your partner (or alone time) so you aren't getting annoyed with each other.
If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.

Is this loss?
Very cool! I hope they're planting nuts, legumes, and herbs as well as fruit
Yeah like maybe programmers can relate with DBAs which can relate with System Admins but they're all pretty different

Of they're old enough to figure that out then who cares?
Further, it's 50% of the people in the swing states that really decide things. I'm sure most New Yorkers and Californians that didn't vote did so because they knew their state would go blue regardless.
When I was a kid I thought they were balloons and tried to pick one up until it stung me. Brutal for a young child who thought the world was safe to explore
The smartest house is designed with passive systems in mind. In the northern hemisphere the south and west are where you get hot summer sun. Deciduous trees planted on the southwest-west will block the summer evening sun, and then drop their leaves so you can still get winter sun.
There's a set up but no punchline, have the panels gone missing??
It gets compacted in the garbage truck and compacted some more at the landfill. I think the odds are slim it could be found in one piece
For my area the "last frost date" is usually listed as ~April 20th. However in 2024 it seems the last time it went below freezing was end of February.
February in the Mid-Atlantic
For my fellow US Mid-Atlantic gardeners, what and when do you start prepping for the growing season?
For annuals I'm curious what you feel is worth growing from seed and when do you start it?
For perennials I'd like to know what if anything you do mid to late winter.
As for myself I plan to take some cuttings of elderberry and root them indoors. Hoping I can plant them by spring. In later February I plan to prune a peach tree and then attempt my first ever graft using the pruning.
I guess I should have said "Ad hominem" instead of "mud slinging", but the point is who cares what someone does in their off time while they're delivering a truth
Or 3: it's irrelevant mud slinging
I've been slowly learning things like this as I've been planting. Just trying to share the wisdom!
Another thing I learned is that you shouldn't prune stone fruit trees (peach, plum, etc) until late winter/early spring because it makes them susceptible to disease. I believe it's fine to prune pomme fruit trees (apple, pear) whenever though because they always have flowing sap (or something like that)
Very nice!
Is hard to tell from the picture but it's not buried too deep, is it? Even on young trees there's a root flare that should be on the soil line
