water my plants more often

I’m very very sorry to say that I’m just awful at this. My parents can keep a nice pointsetta from Christmas alive to see multiple other Chistmases. Mine are already dead, and I thought I was being such a good waterer. (I guess the leaving for a week when it was pretty cold didn’t help) Then I brought a nice rosemary plant home from work with hopes of planting it outside once the ground warmed up a little. I thought that rosemary would grow no matter what, and I thought I watered it. But, alas, it only stayed alive for about a month.
