It’s been a horrendous year but still much for which to be grateful
2020 has been horrendous. No doubt. But everyday brings us great moments. Even tiny ones. We need our mkmebt to reflect on those moments.
What can I do to support you when you fall?
Friends, really good friends, can be family. They can be your chosen family. They can prop you up. They can be your “there”. I’m lucky to have some good friends. I have friends that are non-judgmental and can try to steer me before I go down the wong […]
The silly things I put in my refrigerator
I will admit that my refrigerator is often very empty. Even when I was pregnant I barely kept anything in my refrigerator because I had morning sickness through the eighth month. I couldn’t hold anything down in my body so it made no sense to keep a well-stocked […]
Trying to be rooted but the delivery times failed me

A cacophony of vivid dreams
Last night I kept dreaming of the number 43. It kept going on and on in my mind. The 43 boomed and glared. It was vivid. Yet, that was one of my least vivid dreams. Night after night I’ve been having vivid dreams. Wild dreams, bordering on lucid. […]
Well, you keep digging
