You may not think
Inviting me
To dinner
Made any
Difference
Or that I even
Noticed
When you
Complimented my hair
But those two
Small things
#matter
Way more
Than I'll ever
Be able to express
Why do I have no appetite? Hrmmm.....

Have a great rest! 😘

I live in Maine...might want to wait til April when the snow melts.
I've been watching a marathon of Murder, She Wrote the last couple days, and now I'm ready to move to Maine.

To have them back, to hear their

Australia just recorded zero cervical cancer cases in women under 25 for the first time since records began in 1982. The amazing result of HPV vaccination.

Getting some #writing done today. Yay!

One of the saddest things I see in my job is the effect our societies obsession with being thin has had on women. 80 plus year old women dying from cancer still refuse to put any salt on their food, eat anything with fat, or have dessert because they might get fat...

Today’s #CupOfJoe goes to this momma for destroying the worst egg of them all. May the justice department follow suit.

"If I had to make a #wild guess, I'd say 42."

"Haha. Not even close."

"Give me an #estimate what decade then?"

"Fifth."

"Fifth? You're fifty? No way. Okay 51?"

"Exact opposite on the decade."

"Oh my god. You're the same age my grandma was!"

"Happens to us all."

We spoke
Of many things
In time
But #health
Was never one
I'll forever
Feel guilty
For delaying
Marriage
Knowing
Now
The brevity
You had left

The #autumnal
Pattern settles
By #design
I find tears
Easier
To hide
In the dark
Of the year
When everyone
Accepts
Hibernation
And memories
To collide
With St. Nick
Jolly left at the door
I sit and pet the dog
Pretend to play
The piano badly
So no one asks
And I can
Weep
In peace

Worst part of my job is that I'm gone 4 full days each week and I don't see my dogs. This big boy turned 10 this week and I missed it...

I'm thankful I was able to buy food this year.

A bit of my American south cuisine for the holiday...pecan pie. Pronounced puh-cahn, not pee-can.

The doubled (deviled) eggs have been made. Let the feasting begin...

I didn't write this
"Second chances taste

Happy Thanksgiving!

Don't let anyone fall through the cracks...yourself included.

Much love 💕

That first date
At your place
Salmon and asparagus
Crispy potatoes
A fine chardonnay
Was like dinner
With that friend
From primary school
That would climb
On the roof
Of the neighbor's shed
And offer a hand
Without thought
Our #learning curve
Was almost negligible
Our love
Almost instant

In hospice we're lucky to share a family's last memories with their loved ones. They are so grateful for our services...

But I feel like I'm the lucky one to witness such unadulterated love.

Client was up every hour all night long...the drive home tonight in the fog and rain after dark will be interesting 🙃

We hiked
To our place
Overlooking
The sea
After you passed
Cried out
Exhausted by life
And found
The sky
Saved room
For one more
#reflection
Of your smile
Contagious
To the end

My five year old once made a peanut butter, german mustard, and craisin sandwich. We still talk about it 27 years later. He long ago declared the mustard was the problem...
Would peanut butter and ground german mustard work..

I'm high and the if ya think about it the flavor profiles kinda seem to imply it would
