- Sound and smell! They're two of the most evocative senses, for me. For instance, certain voices/tones provoke emotion in a way that can't be explained adequately. It's a delicious challenge to take on in writing. In life, I sometimes draw upon the memory of familiar tones when needed. It's helpful!
- Plowing through this quart of ice cream like I actually hate time to eat substantive food today and don't belong to two peoples who are well-known for their lactose intolerance. 🤤🥴
- I spent 1/2 of the day packing, 1/4 cleaning, two hours resting and the rest of the time filming the work we did and waiting for people to finish up so I could get back to it. 😵💫 I am completely knackered!
- Let's get this show on the road! Later than expected but we roll with the punches.
- The end It is in sight Yes YES The end draws near
- I have officially hit a wall. I am running on funky beats, hope, tea, and far too little sleep. Tonight, I am going to soak in salts until every muscle relaxes and then plan to sleep like there is no tomorrow ...even though there is a tomorrow and I'LL BE FLYING TO PORTLAND!!
- At 4am this statement no longer feels true. It's far from okay, but you know what? Movers come tomorrow to begin the journey to Portland and then, after cleaning, I'll crash in a hotel room for a night and then drag myself onto a plane to fly across the country to my new home where *I'll be safe.*
- See harassment? Report harassment. Every. Single. Time.
- I've been having revelations And I'm gon' let them shine✨ I deserve congratulations (thank you) I'd never thought that I'd survive If you tell me I won't make it That's when I, that's when I Superbloom YT: youtu.be/tv3gjE3zIIs?...
- Neighbor Dog decided to go on a pre-thunderstorm adventure and dash down the wooded path. All hands were quickly on deck. I found him sniffing at the fence near chickens down the lane. 😅 Oh buddy, I will miss your puppy antics.

- So stock up on fluoride tablets and mouthwash? I'll add that to the list of things to find when settled. Growing up, I learned how important it is to have fluoride in your toothpaste and water. The difference between my dental health and that of my mother and uncle is (respectfully) night and day.
- How is there always more stuff to pack? 😮💨 My back is unhappy! Boo.
- I'm told that the broom broom brigade stopped by on both nights this weekend. Now they're back. 🤨 I wonder about the increase in activity. Did something happen? Maybe they just want the chance to say farewell. Well, message received boys, you can go home! Mission accomplished and all that jazz.
- This sweet little tune by Sophia James keeps dancing through my mind. YT: youtu.be/2hxEt9yAOgs?...

- It should have been clear upon first sensing its scent a honeysuckle nosegay sitting on the side table waiting in wanting to be desired, enjoyed, adored she came in candlelight bundled in blankets paper proof in hand sharing her reassurances before sharing the sheets that confined her curves
- Today I climbed part of a mountain with the support of amazing people. When my legs grew tingly, they helped me. When my back spasmed, we stopped to stretch. I managed to trust them and my body. When I couldn't fathom how they could understand or accommodate me, they lovingly showed me otherwise.
- There, but for the grace of queer joy, go I.✨
- Scenes from tonight's sunset at the healing retreat.✨ I couldn't possibly ask for more.
- Fresh breakfast watching the sunrise. Yoga practice with friends. Meditations under the Virginia Redwood. Lunch on the hillside overlooking the Blue Ridge Mountains. Healing gatherings with marvelous people and now sunset at Donkey Land! When a door closes… ✨
- You only live once and no one knows how long they have, so try to make the most of your time. Tell the people you love that you care for them regularly. Find and be your authentic self. Stretch, drink water, be good to your body, rest, wear the damn sunscreen (yes, I know, it's a sensory nightmare).

- With 45 minutes until sundown, I have completed the treatment and am now FREE!!
