A huge hug to Grace and HaWho and DnJ and piles of salt water taffy by way of thanks (I just ate a lot of that at the beach) for visiting my thread and thinking of me.

Things have been hard hard hard. I haven't had the energy to write about it. I do have those moments of light and joy and many dark ones lying on the floor.

And I have court on Tuesday, so please, all you mantle-sized friends, line up and jump into my pocket or purse that day.

I'll catch up on my sitch one of these days... I just gave myself a pep talk on Nyla's thread actually.

I believe I will see the bounty of the Lord in the land of the living.
Wait for the Lord with courage.
Be stouthearted, and wait for the Lord.
