I stopped by a community BHM event surrounded by #BlackArt co-hosted by the Palm Leaf Club. I saw #EMU win a basketball game and got an #Ypsilanti shirt. Pretty good way to end the month.

I went to the dentist and did not have a cavity. The win was making the appointment because I felt pain when I chewed. Usually I just ignore such things. But I'm growing and leaning to show the same care myself as I do to others.

I played and took risks in nature as I visited Old Man's Cave and had to overcome lots of ice to make it through. It was a reminder of how strong I am. How I can persevere. And how I don't let fear of a challenge stop me from making it through.

I rested. I did a tarot pull and asked about what's to come:
1) next phase of relationship after 17 years
2) next phase of the work needed in community
3) what my role looks like overall
