This is a rough season for many; I hope we all can make the season easier for each other every day.
Even though I walked away from my family >15 years ago, the memories remain painful. Perhaps my experience will help someone else.

Thank you to our essential healthcare workers!

It’s crazy to watch healthcare workers go from “essential” in 2020 to “unprofessional” in 2025! And the professions are largely female!!

Thanksgiving is really the only holiday I enjoy - not so much the history but the idea behind it, of being thankful.

I try to carry that idea through the 364 days after it until the next one renews my desire.
I had dinner with two friends at a restaurant with cute waiters.
I am grateful.

As someone who’d been in that situation, truth👇
"You always hear, 'Well, why did she stay?' But it’s a process," Tara Gandy said. "Don’t judge them. Don’t shame them. You can say, 'You can leave,' but it’s not as easy as you think."

I hope that when you close your eyes tonight,

Your tensions and stress fall to the wayside.

There are many that care for you, and love you for who you are.

Eye lids lower,
Smile on your face,
Life is not easy,
Or perfect.

You are appreciated.

You’re kidnapped. The characters from the last show you watched are coming to rescue you.

I’d be good except they’re all dead.
