I just learned walking with luggage on NYE is supposed to help you travel more in the next year.

We’ll take a cup of comfort yet…

Happy New Year, everyone.

I just saw the cutest thing. A hummingbird sat down on a branch right next to a bright red cardinal. A wren who wanted to be involved tried to sit down too, but he was too heavy and the branch kept bending.

A goldfinch who didn’t care sat on the next tree down, & was scolded by an angry chickadee.

My friend K. sent me a tea that acts like the equivalent of taking an aspirin, to help me manage my pain when it’s low.

I remember thinking how bitter it was, the first time I tried it. Right now, I’m actually quite grateful to get to taste the flavors of the Earth.

Meals at my aunt’s house always involve doilies on doilies.

I actually remembered to boil and blanche the green beans before baking them into the casserole this year.

I’m about to have my face melted off, probably…

I’ve never had to miss a concert due to excruciating physical pain before. But that’s exactly what happened on Sunday.

My girl. I will miss her so so so very much. My little wonder.

Last night I picked up a book I hadn’t looked at in over a year. A collection of essays and speeches by Kurt Vonnegut.

He mentioned how Veteran’s Day used to be Armistice Day, where people would talk about how war cost us so much and wasn’t the answer. But then they changed it.

I asked my dog if she wanted to come run errands with me.

A tiny snippet of what I’ve been working on lately…

But Marla, what is it about?

That. It’s about that.

The lyrics are about light, refractions, sun dials, camera obscura, daguerreotypes, photographs, particles, waves, and an implied meditation about what it means for humanity and how we think about eternal light.

Two Sundays from now I will be singing with the choir I recently rejoined.

We’ll be singing a collection that our conductor wrote. Here’s a tiny snippet of the soundscape we get to create.

(Also, enjoy the view of my very comfy shoes!) lol
