Hiked in the woods and sat by creeks, admired plants.

I'll be honest. For the last 4 months, I couldn't tell you what is happening in the world.

I've been out here vibing with plants when I ain't working or doing school.

today we brought home some vincas for another small hanging basket and some cilantro for my future hot sauce :)

sadly, they didn't have any garlic bulbs in stock at the cornelius location in katy... hoping to have more luck the next time i'm out shopping

My twin flowers are... ? Reaching for the stars? 🤭 I don't know why the petals are suddenly standing upright. Google doesn't seem to have an answer and PictureThis deems it healthy so I'm not gonna worry. Just curious and quite amused! I'll be deadheading these four blossoms in a couple days for tea, since I'm bringing them over to my sister's for a couple weeks anyway and I don't wanna shock them too much. There are plenty of new buds forming already, so I'll have new blooms soon enough!

My creeping woodsorrel meanwhile is very happily growing in its tiny makeshift home 🤭 It's still too babie to properly transplant into its own pot but considering how fast it grows I hope this is enough for the next two weeks. We shall see!

I'm writing this with kraken covid brain fog and am really struggling to keep up. I really want to prioritize my garden project and feel like I'm not able to.

After a year of struggling through unreasonable weather extremes, a lawn crew that destroyed a lot of my work, pots, and killed all of my plants I intended to sell for spring supply money without saying anything or even apologizing, after a year of getting sick whether I went out or not and suffering from my disabilities whether I liked it or not, and losing out on a lot of income opportunities in general there, after a year of losing friends for not being able to socialize after being sick and struggling with disability so much, I'll be honest... it's been really hard for me to even continue to want to do all of this. I can't find the strength or energy to start over where I have to, and where I maybe can, the brain fog is really real. Also, so what if I can sow seeds? I have no healthy soil to plant them in so that they survive, no way to clearly make beds to plant without someone else doing it, and the original plans are just. Not going to happen.

It took me years to make it here, and it's difficult to account for "setbacks" because there are just going to be more of those. I'm sorry, I'm so tired and broken over struggling/losing so much just to get one tree planted. I'm not even sad that a few seedlings died. It's really just the funding and lack of support since I really do seem to be doing it all on my own, and I'm really hurt over the amount of people in my life that don't care about me and only about what I can specifically give them when they want it.

So, I'm doing my best to heal from all of that and doing my best to keep this a priority in my life. I don't want to give up!!! I want to make it happen even if it seems extremely... like extra unnecessarily difficult for me, specifically, for some reason, lol. I want to keep going despite thinking that life sucks and no one cares, because listening to the environment and taking care of it to give native wildlife a healthy, more balanced sliver of home is more important to me than anything. It doesn't have to be a huge forest, I know I'm not capable enough to accomplish something so massive or great, but something small is still worth it. I can die leaving something of actual value to the earth in my stead.

I still want to have a life, though, and that requires being able to bring in an income, and being able to have physical and social skills in order to make the income-making part of living not a massive hell. It would also be nice to be able to leave my home and NOT get the plague, but that is too large of a request to make on society as we know it.

Everyone got mad for a year and most decided that trying to change society for the better was too hard, too much, and that it was easier to just pretend that everything was always fine and to just go back to work while everything continues to slough off and fall apart.

I understand that the reality was and still is a lot to accept.

If anyone else feels this frustration, I hope you know that you're not alone, or maybe I just hope that I'm not alone in this.

Keep going, even if your garden endeavors went from a massive plan to just a small potted plant. It's alright, keep going, gently expand your efforts as you can. You are good enough.

My green goddess energy is vibing this year and the verdant corners of my home are a neverendibg pleasure to me.😍💚

I’m pretty sure I’m going to change my tv stand/bookshelf into another little indoor garden in my bedroom.

Hey Everyone!

My tomatoes are f_cking thriving!!!

I hate all this hot weather but at least my tomatoes are loving it!

I'm super proud. This is the first year I've tried growing tomatoes and I was unsure how it would go after the wierd, cold spring we had here. They may be a touch late but all things considered, I'm pretty sure i can call this a success. Anyway.....

Hooray!!!!!!!

I'm doing any July planting and bed prep that I can do before the heat increases even more. So many of our plants have already died from the heat and drought. My tropical avocados also took a toll from the heat, so I'm moving them to the porch, and maybe they'll survive.

There have been a lot of setbacks and failures.

I have more money now to afford more of the supplies we need to get things ready. Please don't beat yourself for failing like I did/have been because a lot of the success stories you'll see online require a surprising amount of money to get going and maintain if you have absolutely no help with other gardeners, community gardens, etc.

I know that part of why I'm doing this is motivated by anguish and concern for the future. My main motivation, however, is that this is what I'm supposed to do. I've truly wanted to do this for so long, and now I really can.

My heart breaks when I see the environment as it is, and when I see where things are headed, it's so much. I don't feel that I'm moving fast enough to mitigate and help my family and community, and I get angry about it of course, but as long as some progress is being made, it will be okay. Could things have been more efficient? Maybe, maybe not.

Just move forward.
