I'm thankful for you.
If you suspect I mean *you* in particular, I most certainly do! If you don't think I mean ~you~, I still do as well. Because we're all here doing our best, learning as we go, helping where & how we can, and keeping some hope alive in what we believe, create & may yet be. 💕

With my own enduring battle of survival, this part spoke to me as I've had the same thought when people make casual assumptions about "five year plans" and such...
One thing I know?
Live, love, share, and care now.
Because people, -all of us-, are a limited time offer.

Meet Luna: a clever new bunny witch made for a beloved old friend. She's wearing the tiny wool sweater my mom knit for me right before I was born for extra powers of perseverance, care & comfort. 🌒🐰🌘

After being treated dismissively at the Science Olympiad competitions to begin with (as a *girl* and a WEIRD girl at that), I wore my medals the next year like a Gothic Mr. T. That silenced the naysayers. 😈

The white ginger lily (Hedychium coronarium) in my garden has burst into bloom. It's nearly as tall as me, w/several feisty hummingbirds dividing time between devouring delicious nectar & challenging eachother to duels. My little sword-faced dudes, there's enough to go around, really!

Did I venture forth early this morning in order to catch this behemoth of an Amorphophallus titanum in its rare flowering form (they remain open for just 24-48 hours)? Yes, yes I did.

Photos of a gorgeous, large (approx. 5ft long) non-venomous black racer snake I caught sight of right before it completely obscured itself behind this stone. A good reminder to keep situational awareness when out & about.

Wasps can make such beautiful nests (& paper ones especially if they find and collect various rainbow-coloured bits). Here's one I found nestled in a tree. Can't help but admire their skill!
