Two small wins for me today.

1. I managed to touch the neighborhood stray cat this morning. "Smokey" (named by someone else) has been a stray living nearby for at least 5 years now that I know of. She will not let anyone close to her, but I've been working on that for the last while now. After countless bags of treats tuna and ham, I'm the only person she trusts enough to get close to and she even comes running when I call her. (Expecting treats of course.) She still takes offense to me trying to pet her, but we're working on that. (I can't home her as I have several cats already, but at least I can try and make her semi-comfy as she is getting old.)

2. I managed to germinate a couple peach seeds, and planted them today. I'll probably end up killing them by over or under watering, but for now I consider the fact I got this far great success.
