Cadence, I know you have mixed feelings about the new apartment and leaving the dream house, but try to see this as an awesome new chapter for you. As you shed the pain of late that you've felt in the house, see the apartment as a wide open possibility for a happy, safe place for you and your plants. I don't say that in jest- I, too, have developed a green thumb and take much comfort in gardening, especially this time of year. To me, these blooms that are popping open represent new life, both in nature and in me. Let's try and enjoy this season of our lives, as painful and dark as it seems today. There is always hope, and wonderful things ahead for both of us. I hate that you had to come on this board, but I'm so glad to have met you. I love reading your posts-you have a very level, wise head on you and I think you are making good decisions and standing your ground. You are going to be just fine. Have a wonderful day!
