So... I got this apple for free, a few months ago. I bought a nice new glazed pot for it today... and dropped it while I was repotting. 47,50 lost.
I'm a bit unhappy today.

I believe that you will have much more good moments. the secret is not to become disappointed after unlucky moments,then you will get the much better things to cover your costs,either financial or spiritual

All I can say is that I'm sorry for you man. Luckily enough spring is almost here for real and the new life bursting in our trees might bring you some compensation. I know mines are a joy to watch nowadays

I'll get over it... it's not even so much the price, but the fact that I had to put that apple back into it's ugly plastic fake bonsai pot... while I was looking forward so much to seeing it in a real pot. Well, actually it's the price too. My wife being out of a job... I have a few days left at the end of my salary every month nowadays.
But yeah, spring! Checking my trees every day, multiple times per day even, to see what's going on. Not much really, yet, but it's nice to see that things are coming back to live.
