Wooohoo! Monday I get to start my new job! I'm the house plant specialist at Al's Garden Center in Sherwood.
There are 3 Al's Garden Centers around the area. The one is Shewood is the largest Garden Center in the entire Northwest. It's kind of a cross between Sterling Nursery, Greenhurst Nursery, and Bloomingdales. It's huge and georgous.
Their house plant section is about the size of 
the main floor of a two story house. Lots of the usual plants, pothos, philodendron, african violets, etc. But the really great part is the an amazing selection of unusual exotics. Orchids, lithops, pitcher plants and other carnivorous plants, etc. COOL stuff! I'm hoping they have a really lousy employee discount, otherwise I won't bring home any money, just a whole bunch of cool plants and cute home decor. Working at this place is kind of like letting Ival work at a pet store, or letting Kate work at a shoe store. Some things just aren't a good idea. But too late now,... I start on Monday! Hooowaaa ha, ha, ha!
