Happy Birthday, Mojo! My birthday present to you is letting you know that you used a word I had to go look up: potager. Thank you for challenging me!

I think it's great that you are doing the "self nurturing" types of things in the face of so many challenges. I find this so difficult, and you are an inspiration.

Sorry to hear about your sis. I hope they caught it early enough to manage it. Your H? I hope that someday he realizes how fortunate he is. And your son? Well, whether or not he drops out, it's really too early to tell if that is a "bad" thing or a "good" thing, isn't it?

Hugs to you, dear lady.
