I’ll cut to the chase.  I saw my first toad here, in the shade natives garden.  It sounds trivial, but it’s not. This is a good first sign of things going in the right direction.

On the way back from the dentist, I just happened to be going past VP and got some snap dragons for Y, who had expressed interest in them.  I planted them with Y’s flower seedlings on the outer side of the veg garden.  He seemed to like it.

My therapist has to routinely ask me if I want to commit suicide.  I used to think about it a lot, but now I want to live for however long I can.  How can I die while there’s so much beauty in this world, despite all the evil people trying to destroy it?  I’d like to live to see them be held accountable for all this injustice and pain.  I guess I’ll just have to stick around.  Sorry if you were waiting for me to give it up.
