Feeling bored in traffic? Strap a box of plants into your backseat and feel anxious every time you turn a corner!!!

Update : there was some ominous pot plant pots clinking together noises but we all arrived at work in one piece with no spills ☺️ obviously bringing my plants back to the office was more important than bringing actual work back to the office...

Yesterday was hard - but I finished the day by having dinner with my grandparents and Pa had two plants for me - and 🥰 it was a good way to finish a day! (I also had some bookmail which also helped)
