I almost stepped on this lil guy yesterday. That would have been really really gross. Being that my garden is about finished and the fact that I don’t have the heart to kill him, I just moved him off to where I’m putting the tomatoes already eaten by slugs. I really couldn’t kill any of them, if they crawl into the beer I put out, that’s different. Apparently this one is a teetotaler.
Other things
- I have been cigarette free for 9 days. It’s getting easier.
- I have been going to the Y consistently. I average between an hour and an hour & a half each time.
- I am going into the advanced life skills class (I think that’s what they call it, the next DBT group anyway).
- I wasn’t perfect with my garden but I loved every minute of it and I followed through all summer long caring for it and preserving the food.
Things to do
- Figure out how to be social again.
- Make friends.
- You realize I have no clue how to do that?
- Find someone to haul compost and mulch for my garden.
I have come a long way this summer. I think my blog is great, if for no other reason than here is proof of my progress when I start to doubt myself. And I surely will 
It doesn’t seem to be appealing to many others and I wish it was but I can understand why it isn’t. For those of you who do read and comment still, I thank you for your kindness, it means a lot to me!

You’re sporting a different look! I like it — but even more than that, it just says you’re going ahead with the next phase of your life. And that’s cheer-worthy! So I’m kicking up my legs and waving my pom-poms and yelling — YOU GO GIRL!
If the slugs are eating your tomatoes, are they drawing skunks? Heeheehee… there is a grub killer, I think. And I wouldn’t care much if you helped to bring them to extinction. (Shhh… don’t say I said that.)
Question: does having friends mean you have to enjoy parties and such? Hmmm… I may be in trouble too, then. I love my friends — especially one or two at a time. Big groups exhaust me.
You leave a trail of friends, Anita… wherever you go, you listen, you answer questions posted, you help people! I count you friend, even though if we passed in the coffee shop, we wouldn’t know it.

Yeah, I was ready for a new look. Slugs are bad enough, I’ll really have a fit if I find skunks in my garden!
Having friends most definitely does not mean parties, partying or anything of the sort. It means someone you can call and chat with, someone to exercise with, ask for help when you need it, share with. I don’t know one person in this city that fits any of those categories.
I’m so proud of you mom! You are an amazing woman! I always know you could do anything you set your mind to.
Also, I’m glad you didn’t kill the slug. He’s a cutie!
Lis, from now on I’ll save the slugs for you

Well a snail without a shell I guess
A big fat one too.
