What flea said.

I made it home! I am exhausted and have 1500 work emails and one project I’m being told it’s on fire and I need to jump right in. Remind me why I can’t just run away and not go back to work??

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Gotta be able to support your dog in the style he has become accustomed to, meara.

David I’m sure it can be difficult but I feel it’s such a gift that you are sharing this time with us. Thank you. I feel we are all together and it’s just… a gift.

Very much this.

This is very true. I think my friend bought him new expensive food while I was gone too. And he has a groomer appointment next week!

I’m not sure how expensive but it’s what she buys for her dog (who is also hwre) but it’s probably more than the Costco food I was buying him, I assume!

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I know it’s fast fashion, but I got this dress in dusty pink and it’s super cute on me: [link]

I've often felt like our culture is really bad at facing death. It's hidden. It's commercialized.

We had my mom at home with hospice care as she died and while it was hard (very hard) it was also a powerful and beautiful experience.

I knew we would have Jacqueline home and in hospice care as she faced the end of her life.

And I wanted to show two things: how very loved she is, and how it is a part of life.
