I had to say goodbye to my best friend and baby on Wednesday 🌈💔He was always so sweet, even through everything with his heart disease this past year, but in the end his heart was just too big. Finn really went through all nine of his lives and I’m glad I was there with him through it all to cuddle and take care of him in any way I could. Rest easy, my love 💖

"Though lovers be lost love shall not," etc. But I am not yet sure how to sever the love from the lover without occasioning some degree of carnage.

The thing about the moon is maybe you don’t need to write a poem about the moon. The moon’s been done, we’ve discussed it. It’s a coin a mirror an eye a lantern in the darkness. It’s a rock in space. It’s the dang moon we’ve all seen it! Is there something you can notice that’s is more surprising than the moon???

.

we're not going to make it

we will make it

it'll take too long to rebuild ourselves

we will make it

but what if we don't wake up in the morning

we will make it

i don't see a future with me in it

we will make it

we'll give up long before then

we will make it

im scared

i love you. we will make it

If you start reading books again, you’ll feel at least a little better. I promise.

You never know how signing up for a new class, getting a haircut, attending a party you are too lazy to go to, or applying to a job you think you have no chance at can really shift timelines. You are probably one decision away from catapulting into a new timeline.

Here’s a Carolina Wren bathing on a leaf.

I hope she washes away the bad happenings in your day. 💕
