Very convincing. Makes me completely want to put myself under government control. Please take me to where you can make me unconscious and naked.

Our wings are not tired.

I think I'm going to think of graham crackers and "The cookies for marshmallows" for awhile now.

That is so cute. Also, I do love graham crackers.

I have no plans most of the weekend and super just want to relax after a stressful week

That sounds like a wonderful plan, but I think it probably will be more working than relaxing, again. Ugh.

Mr. S was discharged from the hospital today. We’ll see how things go from here.

Sending much calm~ma your way.

Tomorrow morning Dylan and I are flying down to Mexico for a week--just the two of us.

Have a glorious time!

This year has been stress and loss and loss and loss. I want to be hopeful about things. To be excited about what's on the horizon.

Yes, that is what I wish for you and Matilda.

Nora, I’m so sorry. Peace to you.

Spain sound like a marvelous plan, and a good step into this new approach to an unexpected and unasked for life path. (But I’m pretty sure that 70 thing is bunk.)

I'm just here to chant BARCELONA over and over again. It is my favorite city in the world.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh no, Nora, I'm so sorry. It's always sudden.

I'm so sorry, Nora.

I'm so sorry, Nora. Losing a parent is always so difficult to process.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I'm so sorry Nora. My condolences to you and your family.

In other funerary news, my uncle's was a beautiful service, and his wife and kids all seem to be holding up well. I suppose the one good thing about his struggle was that it prepared them for the loss in advance. Even though the reason was awful, it was good to see so many relatives again, including a couple of cousins I last saw when their high school-age kids were toddlers.

I'm also happy to report that we didn't have to ask the funeral home for an extra coffin despite my mother's fear coming true about my aunt chattering at her without pause for the entire 4+ hour drive up.
