I'm supposed to take a picture of something that makes me happy each day.
This big boy sleeping near my desk makes me happy.

Mr. Mozart asleep on the couch with his daddy and a wolf.

You see yarn. I see emotional support chicken eggs.

Preparing spicy carrot soup for soup night.

This is Miss Zephyr. She looks like a cat, but she is actually an imp in cat's clothing.

This picture still cracks me up.

My handsome coworker this morning.

My best curse came from a story that will probably never get published (written decades ago). I still occasionally hear one of my kids use it.
"May no one burn your plague-marked corpse and may the wolves piss on your bones."

Current need

Takeaways from my most recent therapy session:

- I got through cancer, I can get through this.
- The same emotions that helped me get through my cancer treatment - anger and humor - can help me get through this.
- Emotions, especially anger, are underrated. Sometimes you NEED to be angry.

I don't take nearly enough pictures of this beautiful girl. This is my Noire (we say "Nar" - French we're not).

Do I break the ice with a cat pic? Of course!
This is Mozart. He's my son's cat and he is massive, but he loves to squish himself into cozy beds like this basket.
