I'm Glad Thyme Isn't My Kid

Remember that beautiful, bushy, full pot of English thyme I posted a few weeks ago?

English Thyme Plant

Yeaaaa.. All of it was dead on Sunday. I started watering and pruning out dead stuff (well, it all looked dead). A few new green sprigs have popped up. I'm hoping these new sprigs continue to grow because I pulled most of the deadish roots out. I started with 50ish live sprigs of thyme, and now I have 3ish new ones. I'm monitoring watering it better to keep the soil damp until more roots appear. I fret about my herbs, a lot. I think it's giving me wrinkles.
