my skin kinda toughened up when i got on the right meds, and got divorced from the person who constantly wore away my skin.

in some shit now over my farm. again. i have mostly been able to not take it too personally because i know that neighbor troubles are SUCH a common problem. got a semi-public meeting coming up this week, tho, and hoping i dont get flailed too badly. several long relationships on the rocks over it, and i think being in the same room with all of them is gonna suck.
