Would Hydrangea do well in this spot?
I live in Southern California. Hydrangea doesn't do too well here because of the heat. And is normally sold as a shade specific plant. I do know that it does like sun though. There's a corner in my yard, it need something. Mainly it needs the Bird of Paradise that's growing there to be ripped out and replaced with something nicer. So I thought, Hydrangea. It will have a space that's about 5 feet wide and 6 or 7 feet long. The location is under a tree, a pine actually. Right at the base where trunk starts. There isn't a terrible amount of roots there. Never has been. The tree is about 30 - 40 feet tall. I Measured the light the corner receives. From sunrise at 6am till between 11:30am - 1pm it gets the sun. After that its shaded and receives light dappled light throughout the day. Till right before sunset where its receives about an hour of sun. So morning sun, partial dappled light, and an hour of sun at sunset. The soil tends to stay moist in that back corner. Not wet, but it takes about 3 days for the soil to dry. Would hydrangea do well in this corner? Could i squeeze two of them in there?
What is a job of a councillor?
I'm just wondering, coz there are 6 people who I know who are councillors my neighbour and local big mouth farmer, who does nothing but moan, especially at BT, another two from town, who work at the council office with posh cars and moaning to the local press about cuts and how another councillor or AM or MP is doing so badly, and hardly does nothing for you, for example, theres a footpath near my house that needs raparing coz its dangerous and erroding to the river...instead he and the council pays thousands on re-tarring a road that doesn't need tarring, and changes a free car park into a pay carpark, or ordering people to make signs and stuff, spending thousands on helping scroungers on the dole and raise rates and council tax...the rest are old and seem to talk much and do less...if I wanted to be a councillor do I have to be a member of a government like AM(assembly member) or MP? and who exactly is the head of the council? for example gwynedd council..an AM? or all of them?
Dream about arguing with my boyfriend and snow?
In real life I have a long distance boyfriend. He lives in Texas and I live in New York. Currently He's on vacation to California for a month. My dream was that I moved from NY to a house that's in Texas so I can be closer to him. I was laying in I think a bed outside and there was snow on the ground. Also in the distance I could see a frozen pond. I was next to a pine tree that was covered in snow and for some reason I kept touching the tree and the snow. I didn't feel cold in my dream from the snow. Then I think it turned to nighttime, I'm not sure, but I called my boyfriend and I started arguing with him saying that I literally left my family to come and live close by to him and he's on vacation going to California and Las Vegas. After I said Las Vegas I got a text message saying that he's only going to be in vegas for a week. The strange part was that I had a wet napkin up to my face and I was fake crying for some reason. I dont have a problem with him going on vacation so why did i have this dream?

What wall color would go well with a natural pine wood floor?
Since the pine is kind of yellowish, any color that has a tinge of yellow to it should work ok - greens, browns, yellows, oranges, golds, turquoises, etc. - as long as you pick them from the yellower part of the color spectrum.

Ear Piercing Allergy- What do I do?
I am soon going to get my ears pierced. For the third time. The first time, I got my ears pierced at Claires with 14k gold posts stamped 14k on the actual post (yes I can read that small). After a few days, the holes started leaking this nasty yellow pus, and my mom put alcohol on them and nothing helped so we took the earrings out amd the holes closed over. I have been cleaning my ears twice a day during that time, and I did not touch my ears. A few years later, I got them pierced again, with gold plated studs. Same story. I really really want my ears pierced. My grandmother sent me 4 pairs of 14-18k gold earrings, and I want to wear them. I'll be fine once my holes heal. I don't know what earrings to try when getting my ears pierced though! I don't want to re-pierce again. My mom suggested that she pierce my ears herself with a sterilized needle and thread floss through like people did in her native Ukraine, but I don't know! Any suggestions?
