Your heart is a muscle the size of a fist. Keep loving. Keep fighting.

Five people added me yesterday, the biggest influx in a long time. I wonder what brought you in? Welcome!

It's amazing to me how some people can make *consistently* thoughtless, mean-spirited, and bitter comments. Then I remind myself that there's one in every crowd. (Hopefully only one!) I'd gotten spoiled by hanging out with thoughtful, friendly people. Talking with Bluehair really was caustic and thoughtless, and just really upset D.... put my teeth on edge, too. I've been feeling more annoyed with the person, but rather than lash out (like I'd like) I'm going to try to help that person be nicer to others. It's possible C doesn't realize what a dink he's being, but I'm going to start pulling him aside and making a point of informing him of what he's doing.

Bro did well today, got work, was able to take care of his own bills, and just called to be nice today. That's always a plus!

Newt's being a little doll today, just content to snuggle close. I can't get enough of him! I'm so glad that there are so many nice folks in my life right now. :)
