I put up a solar motion sensor floodlight between appointments today. That’s been on my list for a while.

So that when your nosy neighbors actually start coming over to talk to you instead of just yelling across the yard the light comes on? :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

My vacation to parental units has been pretty good. My parents are pretty cool in that they share my liberal leanings. My grandmother seems reasonably well. I have gotten a lot of sleep the last two nights.

I have a new therapist who is easier to get to, validated all my shit and says she’s looking forward to working with me. I didn’t realise how depressed I have been this year until I felt hopeful after the appointment.

I wrote a couple of song lyrics. Also created a backing track? I think? Some lyrics to run in the background while the verse runs over the top. Feeling very clever.

Or when one of their eleven outdoor cats who each weigh about 12-15 pounds runs through my yard the light will go on and give me a small heart attack.

My tiny victory: just resigned the lease for my current place with no rent increases for two years. Since my income is a little, ah, tenuous at the moment, this is a relief.

I am at the point where I have more in cash savings than I owe my parents for college. My 401k got me to positive NW a while ago, but this actually feels like I’m on the black, since I can pay it off tomorrow (I won’t, I’d rather have an e-fund…)

I have prepared a meal using nothing more processed than tofu or the garlic that comes chopped in a jar.

Soon I will eat 5 tablespoons of it

Local butcher makes really tasty sausages and I remembered to buy a ton of meat from them before they close for the next fortnight.

I dug out more Morning Glory and managed to salvage a Cast Iron Plant, since all the dirt fell off its roots when I pulled it out. Yay bonus plant!

Also, got a workout from digging around in the dirt.
