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
The #autumnal
Pattern settles
By #design
I find tears
Easier
To hide
In the dark
Of the year

Hibernation
And memories

With St. Nick

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...

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

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.

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

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

You guys...
This couple... the husband dotes on his wife. He spent two hours playing the piano for her after breakfast. He knows she's not going to be with us much longer and he just loves her sooooo much.
I've had to remove myself to cry three times today. It's so beautiful and so sad ...

Off to work hospice for 48 hours straight. Then back home for Thanksgiving. The emotional roller coaster is very real.

I made the #decision
Long ago
To never marry
To #travel
To see the world
The car bombing
Changed everything
I lost myself
As easily
As i lost my hearing
I needed stability
I craved predictable
Like some people
Crave chocolate
But 30 years on
I crave myself
Even more

Starving...haven't eaten since breakfast. Roasting chicken with broccoli and rice for supper and the aroma is driving me mad.

I mixed the meat loaf, put it in the oven, then you took it out and moved it to a different pan. I washed potatoes, turned to put them in the oven, and you scooped them up to wash and trim. My ire was #measurable so I left the room and took a deep breath. Too many cooks in the kitchen.
