Succulents suck

My jade is jaded, and succulents suck.

I think my thumb is the opposite of green. What would that be? Orange?

I searched and searched and finally found a jade plant. Nice, healthy. I even bought special soil-for-succulents. But I left it in its original pot over the winter months, because reasearch said it was dormant then.

I transfered it to a new, bigger pot with its new super succulent soil in March.

And ever since, it has been dropping leaves and now stubby stems. Slowly. Every so often.

I had a calathea plant for a while. It did well for most of the winter and then it died. The story of my life with plants.

I'm a killer.
