i also miss environments where communication is music. i miss playing music with friends. it’s a completely different level of expression and communication. like riding horses. you can talk horse or you cannot. you can play music with someone and instantly become friends.

we were planning to go to caba de roca to spread a little bit of my moms sand in the brilliant sun of the windy overlook. and then there were lillie’s and bella counting every where and instead we are at the vet. bella is not super sick but they are running blood work on her kidneys.

saint francis of assisi day is celebrated oct 4. one of my moms saints. i used for her prayer card & was the church of her funeral. her anniv is on the 16th. with leo there is such a soft tenderness now. i wish she was here but a feel her so warmly and it is love perhaps she always yearned to give.
