Grief and the Change of Seasons
Personal Perspective: The change of seasons reminds us of the passage of time between when our loved one was here and now. It is one kind of change we can't resist.

Grief, Five Years In
Personal Perspective: In early grief, it's hard to imagine that you will ever feel anything but hopeless. But with time, the sharp edges wear off and the sadness becomes bearable.

Missouri's AG Andrew Bailey is suing Starbucks, arguing that its workforce is too "female" and "non-white" and as a result Missouri consumers “pay higher prices and wait longer for goods and services" because its workforce is "less qualified"

Wow. If this is accurate teams of therapists need to parachute into Washington. Today.
You can clearly see on this chart when he sleeps and how it began to fluctuate and shrink. The last day it showed he might have slept for 45 minutes to an hour. Mental issues (multiple) and drugs (also multiple)are a very bad combination.
