Y’all. Henry Petunia and I, in all our autoimmune glory, are bundled, snuggled, huddled, nestled, snoodled up. Pick a word – we are inside. My word. As advertised, everything is frosty and temperatures are falling in our part of the world. The kicker is that we are now entering the “hard freeze” portion of this… Read more

The other day I came across NPR’s annual “Year in Review: 50 Wonderful Things from 2023” and thoroughly enjoyed reading through it. NPR 50 Wonderful Things. As there are plenty of year end stories recapping the tragic things that have happened as well as all the loss that has been experienced this year, it is… Read more
