I have lived many lives, both real & imagined. Lover of books, photography and dancing under the light of the moon. I find my peace in nature. Mountains. Ocean. Woods.

No random DM.
I try not to stress what I cannot control. I try to take 1 thing at a time. But life is stacking up on me. Another death in the family. That's 2 in < 4 months. Car trying to go kaput. Screwed up a credit card payment that's going to cost me. And all things Christmas. It will be what it will be. Sad.

Happy Thanksgiving

I noticed today a little bell icon at the top of a friend's profile. You can click it to get notified when a friend posts. Maybe I won't have to wade through so much 'other.'

I'm not reading a #book.
None in progress.
I forgot to stop by the #library.
I was tired.
Finished an e-book last night.
Don't want to start another, I'm giddy for the books at the library.
It is rare that I'm not reading.
Tomorrow. ::singing:: Annie moment.

Your #president went to the Supreme Court to keep from paying full #SNAP benefits.
#USDA said grocery stores can not offer discounts to SNAP recipients.
Your #government doesn't care if you go #hungry. Happy #holidays. 😞 #LetThemEatCake🍰

Gingko trees at #Bernheim. So pretty. And a little smelly.

I planned our #cremation & burial today. Pre-planned, pre-paid, toast to earth. No visitation. I told them I wanted popcorn in my pockets before cremation. Got to find ways to express myself. I have friends volunteering for the role of #death. Just to stand off in the distance. Quiet & mysterious.

How popular are #chickenrecipes? I cook a lot of chicken. So always looking for something new. Especially with #pickyteens. This is a tried & true recipe.

I just finished the #DanBrown book, #SecretofSecrets. If you are unaware Dan Brown weaves a fictional story through all kinds of facts - science, art, locations. For the 1st time ever, I want to go to Prague. He also introduced me to nonlocal consciousness. Solving a problem in my belief . . .

Hello Fall. My favorite season. Cool, breezy days. Bonfires. Hiking. Hoodies & boots. In theory anyways.

Trying to find my humor.
Trying to find the light.
Need to walk in the ocean.
Need to climb a mountain.
Trying to reinvent myself.
Or maybe just find the old me.

After years of bonking my head with São João hammers, hitching rides through medieval towns, and chasing punk shows across Portugal… I’m so close to becoming monetized!

I need 6 more adventurous souls to push Atypical Vagabond over the top.💥

I little girl was outside of the #library as I was leaving. She held up her very thin book to show me what she had. So, I held up my #book. I am assuming, from her astonished look, that nobody reads 760 page book around her.

I love when I go online #shopping to be reminded of something I already own. #Perfect.

I had a weird random craving for banana pudding. It's been so long since I'd made it, I nearly forgot how. Layering it up made me think of @milesnaismith.bsky.social trifle. So good.

I have #leukemia. #CLL. I have a negative measles titer. I can not have the #MMR. My former #vaccines no longer protects me. #Measles in immunocompromised individuals can be fatal. This is a reminder that you might need an update. I am grateful to those getting the MMR to protect their community.

This account was my place for private thoughts. Then I shared it with my friends. (And deleted some posts) Days like today I think about needing that anonymous outlet. I wonder why I can't/won't share some of my feelings? Been called stoic. Looked it up. Found out I was in denial. Restless & blue.

I have a friend that I have lunch with once a month. Without that plan, months just slip by.

I sleep like royalty. Alone.
Unfortunately, I do not wake like a Princess. Beautiful with mice as servants.

Not to brag about how wealthy I am, but I have 36 eggs in the fridge.

Squirrel at my backdoor looking for his dealer. (My son feeds him nuts & dried fruit)

I can't be the only person that finds a weird #satisfaction in writing a #post that is exactly the allowed number of characters and spaces. It doesn't happen often, and often happens as I try to pare down my thoughts to fit in the allotted space. Getting creative with my words and/or use of symbols.

Today is my birthday. We have 9 inches of snow and a layer of ice. More snow coming. This is not normal for us. The roads are impassable. No cake for me. ::pout::
