It's been a long time since I felt like this.
Awww, that's great.
Excellent news, Matt! Well deserved.
I said I'm sorry. I've made mistakes, but fear was never one of them.

Good to read, Strix!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That's awesome, Strix!

Officially a short day today, hooray! I plan to celebrate the solstice by working in the yard.

Our wings are not tired.
SuziQ, I am so sorry about the foot issues. It has been a few years now since I had foot surgery and remember well what a lot of no fun it was. I hope that your pile of projects can distract you from the discomfort.
Strix! Such a delight to read that update. Your contentment makes me smile. It was a long hard road.

That's great, Strix!
I'm sorry about the foot, SuziQ.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
I hope you are able to manage the pain somehow until the surgery, Suzi. That sucks.
Strix, 2 years sober AND the kiddo loves your brownies? Fantastic achievements.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
Strix, that is all excellent to read! I'm so happy for you.
Rose has been wanting to celebrate the winter solstice, so I think this afternoon we'll take a walk around the neighborhood as the sun sets, then we'll light some candles at dinner tonight and maybe read a couple of stories from a collection of solstice-related folktales. I'm pretty excited about our plans!
