Now imagine having to get health insurance in the same manner...
Getting car insurance must be one of the most stressful things known to man.

Blankets gnarl
I cling to sheets
To refuge
Silent, still
Light and dreams
Robbed
Of valid assignations
Bile spilt over edges
Not yet defined
But deeply held
Fighting an enemy
Violent as a butterfly
Silent as the moon
Dominoes
Undulate
Unseen
Falling clicking
Ticking into place
Brittle, alone
I weep
I cling to sheets
To refuge
Silent, still
Light and dreams
Robbed
Of valid assignations
Bile spilt over edges
Not yet defined
But deeply held
Fighting an enemy
Violent as a butterfly
Silent as the moon
Dominoes
Undulate
Unseen
Falling clicking
Ticking into place
Brittle, alone
I weep

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.

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.

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...

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...

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.
