Never underestimate a woman who can camp and kayak on her own.. she has ropes and straps and axes and tarps and stuff, and knows how to utilise them ( ◠‿◠ )(๑˃̵ᴗ˂̵)

An immature person will forget what they have told you, the lies and the truths. Stand firm in your own truth.
Do not fall victim to the gaslighting. Admitting your fault is good, but no one gets to weaponise them against you!! move forward step-by-step, progress not perfection🙏🫂

So today is the day.. and what a long day has been!
Last night today, things are parade it out the front door and into the storage locker. Neighbours have been brought into help bring out large furniture.. storage bins have been picked up and removed.. but the narrative is that I am the problem🤷♀️

Salmon was the choice for supper, as well as mashed sweet potatoes which she devoured! The food she didn’t consume was repurposed for her grand puppy, carefully chopped up. She is excited for another visitor this evening to bring her a photo of a painting in her room…

A bunch of freshly cut flowers is to hold, and spin, to touch, all in wonder..
Orange sherbet is best savoured slowly to avoid the brain freeze..
A chance to be present with a struggling loved one is a precious gift..
As a child, we look at the world in wonder, and the frail elderly repeat it 🙏🙏🙏
