To emphasize the living nature of the writing I'm putting here, I'm going to steal another trick from [Maggie Appleton](https://maggieappleton.com/garden-history) & other gardeners: page statuses
- 'seedling's are pages I've written (probably on the bus) but not edited. 
- 'sprout's are pages that I've gone back to, edited, and clarified ideas.
- 'tree's are pages that I consider "complete" to my satisfaction.
- 'repotted'/'repotting' means the page content wasn't written for this site. See [repotting](?repotting)

I'll also be putting 'planted' and 'last tended to' dates at the bottom of each page to track when I first wrote down an idea and when I last made an edit.
