The kindness of strangers... :)

I just arrived on my home street to find all 130 of my herb garden plots had been harvested and left dirty and dried out. As I was starting to clean up the mess, two strangers (now new friends!) happened along. They both stayed and helped me clean up, water and replant the entire garden.

Just wanted to say thanks (you know who you are!) and express my happiness that there are such lovely players in this game. :)

  • What is awful is that folks feel so lame as to empty herb patches and never replant.  It takes so little time to leave for the next person what was left for you in the first place.

    Some are quite ungrateful and not deserving of anything.

    And yes in case you wonder, of course I always replant.  I made millions from Yellow Crumb and every time I pulled one out, one seed went back in.

  • It gets very discouraging when something like that happens but it Does give an opportunity for the really nice people, those that helped you, to be noticed and appreciated.

  • At the very least they should have cleared the plots.  Glad you got 2 good new friends from it though!

  • What you don't clean up is left for me and I don't fret because I get more iMG!

    Remember this little poem in your head when you feel like ripping it from your skull because people leave messes. It's not a mess. It's a chance for you to get awesome drops and iMG. The person who left the mess won't get any of that. Just think about it. No need to get upset over messes, it's an opportunity!!!!

  • I think I love you, Eye Wonder! This poem will definitely lower my blood pressure - heh! The thing is, when I'm on an herb run, I don't want iMG or cool drops - I want herbs, dammit! *pouts*
