When you find your Christmas present in the back of the truck, in a box, and Mama finds you.

Sometimes I feel as if I am being watched. #dogs

First vacation all year. I have been counting down the seconds since last week. Then I saw this face and suddenly all I want to do is stay home and cuddle my puppy wumpkins. Well played, Auggie. #momguilt #dogs #vacation

Little later than planned thanks to a bout of the flu, but a 5k in the books to help fight cancer. Thanks to the pup for all the sniffs and kisses on the path! #IRun4Movement

My dog loves my Squishmallow. I love my Squishmallow. Every day, we engage in the battle eternal. I could give it up, or buy another one, but it’s kind of become our thing. #squishmallow #dog #dogmom

My goal for this week is to finish section two of my memoir (Dissolution). The whole thing is almost done drafting and the proposal is just about okay. Yeah, it needs work, but whatever. It’s a draft. #autistic #autisticwriters #writing #queerwriters

Auggie is listening intently to every word I say but only with one ear.

Found a magical tree on a hike today. Thank you to the local dyads for tolerating my house visit. #hiking #trees #forests

In the midst of constant chaos, I still try to embrace Spring.

Took advantage of the winter sun and went hiking with the pup. After studying the map carefully, I promptly went off on the wrong trail a half mile in.

Aliens take note. It’s not that I *won’t* take you to my, erm, leader. It’s I *can’t.*

Such a great read for a Sunday morning! One thing I love about craft books is the reminder that I’m not alone on the struggle bus of procrastination, imposter syndrome, and getting lost in the busyness of life. #writing #writers

That little bit of green is Auggie’s new donut. He’s destroyed at least five of them but loves them so I keep buying them. Any time he gets a new toy, he has to carry it around and sleep with it for a while. It’s one of my greatest joys.

I crocheted my first project last night when politics and existential dread gave me insomnia. I made a hat. A rainbow hat. That is all.

No matter how grumpy I am at the ceaseless PNW rain or a particularly craptastic year, these two can clear the clouds and help me find my peace. #equestrian

Sure, sure. Try to get writing done. The sixty-five pound napping snuggle bug is definitely not an excuse. Nope. Not at all.

Book companion of the day, and oh, I am identifying with Dex. Love this series!

If I had one piece of advice for new writers (like me) it’s to go to a writer’s conference. You’ll meet the most incredible artists, cheerleaders, and experts who are all invested in the same thing—growing our literary world, and inviting you into it. Community is everything.
