I recently got a message from a man that I had gone on a few dates with in the past.

tinkercreek comments on Apr 25, 2020:

If you got on well together conversationally, feel safe and such, there's certainly nothing to lose in taking a nice walk outdoors. Perhaps a renewed contact (plus isolation!) would have you both a bit more chatty and seeing some possibilities. I also have strong feelings about kissing, and the skill needs to be reciprocal. I doubt it would be well received to tell him you were not pleased with his kissing, but perhaps something like "you know what I really enjoy?" Skills can be taught!

Companion planting can help, onions around strawberries tend to be happy, along with bigger and sweeter berries. Garlic can be paired with beets, kale, spinach, or potatoes (also roses).

tinkercreek comments on Apr 2, 2020:

The world is presenting all of us with some incredibly stressful situations right now, and most of us manage to continue living our best lives right on through it. Then, WHAM, along comes that pesky little straw, a minor issue, a moment, that pushes someone or someones to find themselves unable to deal with anything at all. Not being able to see the big picture with clarity is a common result. Finding some space and time to decompress and gain perspective sounds like a positive move. Your life is at a very tender place right now with the relationship, baby and another on the way, and many of us have experienced the same. Please do what you can to get time for yourself, also. Try to embody all that kindness and love you have, and focus on all you have to look forward to. Be well, and know how many people care about you, and Frankie, and the babies.
