I wouldn’t say they were omissions — you were on a deadline, and any of these remedies
would be more than a good place to start. By the way, my Mimulus reference was “seconding” your comment about it ……
Love learning new phrases from you too — BOGOF here is just known as BOGO –which in turn always makes me think of Bozo ( the clown, which in slang = “idiot”).
Take care — S.
I realise I have made some glaring omissions with this article.Mimulus should definitely be in there. Any more suggestions?
Thanks for your input Steph. As soon as I get chance I will add your recommendations to the article. I’d never heard the expression twofer before. Had to Google it! Bit like BOGOF – buy one get one free. Pronounced ‘bog off’- an English phrase for ‘get lost’ – or worse! That one gets used a lot in the UK. Love learning new words!
Agree with you on Mimulus.
I sense I’d also consider Walnut — the great twofer of major life transitions and protection from outside sources …..
And Star — I like Star with any major change — change by it’s very nature stirs up loss, which stirs up other loss, which stirs up grief.
