1 of 3 bitties, his nickname is Aloe - the others are far more high energy but it's a joy to have help with my plants. optimistic but somewhat melancholy musings under the cut - Also transcripts

Aloe: I thought you kept succulents Nebby: I did Nebby: They died Aloe: Sounds to me like time to start fresh

My garden got infected with black mold and scales. It was ironic - watching as the life drained from each leaf, My garden was once - and I think still is - an extension of my mind I took care of it to show I could take care of myself, Ironic that the blight came out of dormancy when stress started to rot my health.

But you can start a new garden. You'll never be free of blight or parasites, you'll never be free of stress, But you can always start caring for your health again, You can nurse flowers from new plants. Life moves on, there are ups and downs, flowers wither in the winter and bloom in the spring - And so long as you survive, you'll grow from the rot that once felt like it took you over
