My WDW Marathon bib number has two of my favorite numbers in it… 25 and 13

I’m taking all the vibes the universe can send me…

I got my WDW Marathon bib number and check in pass today… it’s weird how NBD I feel about a marathon…

Last year I was freaking out at this time.

Can I beat 7 hours this year!?

I stand with Mark Kelly.
Four generations of my family have served our country. Service is in my blood. The President wouldn’t know anything about that.

This book. This came to me at the perfect time. It’s short and beautiful.

A Psalm for the Wild-Built by Becky Chambers.

She’s 2/2 for books that fill my soul.

My Jadzia Dax outfit is done! I go for my second marathon in under two weeks!

Training don’t go as planned because life didn’t go as planned… but I’m quite stubborn and at least I’ll be wearing a lot of glitter…

Engage!!!!

It’s taken me a day to just organize all the pieces. I mean, no way I was going to bag by bag.

Building slowly to savor it.

Not sure how I like the app for instructions. It is nice to be able to rotate it though.

I haven’t knit in ages, but this simple linen stitch cowl has been incredibly soothing this holiday season.

Also, how incredible is this yarn!?

Happy Solstice everyone. Every year we have a reminder that light comes again and nights will get shorter…

Light a fire tonight and hold tight.

I love The Dresden Files, might be my favorite series of books. I’ve read them all through a few times. Thought I would read the last couple again before the next book comes out in January.

I mean. I remember THAT happened in Battle Ground… but given the end of my year, I wasn’t prepared for it.

It well may be
That we will never meet again
In this lifetime
So let me say before we part
So much of me
Is made of what I learned from you
You'll be with me
Like a handprint on my heart
And now whatever way our stories end
I know you have re-written mine
By being my friend

I’ve never had news that brought out such emotions of joy and pain together.

Grace! We’re getting new Stargate!
Stargate Returns! - Joseph Mallozzi's Weblog

My soul is so happy… it’s been a rumor for so long…

I am overjoyed to get more Stargate… but devastated Grace won’t be here to watch and podcast about it with me…

The most bittersweet news…

In case there are people left I haven’t shared this with.

Also, sleeves are bullshit.

Started New York 2140 a few days ago… about 5 minutes after this cozy moment of reading over lunch… the landscapers started their engines behind me.

*sigh…

Fun fact, I compete in a very niche sport and I seem to have almost no photographic evidence I throw.

This weekend I threw for Grace, who always called me her Shield Maiden.

Superior, they said, never gives up her dead
when the gales of November come early…

50 years. An event that lives in the hearts of all that grew up on the Lakes.
On this eve of fifty Novembers
the winds still howl
the bell still tolls.

My breath turns heavy
as we drift into the long cold night.
The Fitzgerald stirs beneath.

I harbor their echoes
and cradle her steel.

My waves bear the sorrow
of all I have taken.
