In honor of Rare Disease Day on 2-28, and of my late daughter, please call your Congressional representatives every day this week and tell them to protect Medicaid by voting against any budget that cuts it. Medicaid keeps people with disabilities alive. Thank you.

Looks like we will probably get another freeze ‘round about Thursday. So much for all my little plants coming back. I am ready for spring.

Our baby banana tree turned very brown after the January freeze and I did not expect its tropical self to survive but it is coming right back.

The blueberries are coming back after the January freeze - such pretty little buds. (The Barbados cherry is not looking good, though).

We can’t know what will grow after a freeze kills most of what is there. Metaphorically, I have little good to say about this - little that is good has grown for us since our loss. Since the January freeze, though, large patches of henbit have grown up on one side of our yard.

I am trying to make a daily self-care discipline of making my calls to my national, state and local representatives (and doing the Wordle and the Daily Blossom) with my coffee before heading off to work. I don’t always have time but I try.

Midwinter
Signs in the street are candles
Hopepunk stories in the belly
Lamb’s bleat at meetings
Tied crosses of grain
Ewe’s milk moon but could
Corn dollies just become shoeless children in the cold
May something that nourishes
Grow

Happy Feast of Brigid, Midwinter, sometimes called Imbolc, meaning “in the belly” - lambs in the bellies of ewes, seeds in the bellies of earth. Goodness will still grow if we plant it.
