I posted on Facebook once that "Pam has worms". A few people got excited. People love Pam and they rush to defend her. But when you have worms... well you have worms.
Pam is a gardener. When it is nice outside and she doesn't have her hands in the dirt she gets the "heebie jeebies". She is always thinking about "soils". Sometimes I am pressed into service by scooping up manure from the parking lots of local establishments where the Amish park their buggies and their horses do what they need to "when nature calls". It's not a nice job.
We moved once and Pam convinced a neighbor to move her large mound of duck "stuff". He had to scoop it up with a tractor and load it onto a wagon. It was several scoops. Then he moved it for her to the new house. Pam can apparently be very convincing.
A few years ago Pam started learning about "worm castings". Castings is a nice word for poop which is a nice word for "you know what".
Worm castings are great for soil. So we ordered today worms for Pam and she has a worm farm in a big plastic container. Those worms get the best of table scraps and all sorts of attention. They get moved inside when it is too hot or too cold and they get moved outside when the weather is nice.
Some of the worms don't know how good they have it so they crawl up and out of their enclosure. But Warden Pam has answers for every eventuality and she knows how to keep them in their "worm bed".
We ordered het 1000 worms today. We don't know if we will get 1000 worms exactly, so we are looking for volunteers to count worms when the package arrives. Please advise if this is something you would like to do.
So very soon... Pam will have worms... again.
