Today is my amazing momma’s birthday. Celebrating with her and my family yesterday left my heart feeling lighter after the heaviness of the past week.

The fires in California have had me reeling, and I am across the country. I am trying to help how I can, by donating and sharing information, but am left aching for those who have lost everything. The beauty is that people are coming together and that gives me hope. If you can, find a family in need and donate. Artist Camilla Taylor and partner Jason lost their home along with Camilla’s artwork and tools. As anyone knows, a home and a studio take a lifetime to build and to lose it all at once is devastating. I will be gathering some tools and sending them along when the time is right.

Other than that I have been sculpting. It keeps my mind off of THE WORLD, which for me as a highly empathetic person is helpful. I’ve been listening to the Poor Things soundtrack and Godspeed You! Black Emperor on repeat.

Upcoming Miscellany

I am a little overwhelmed by everything at the moment. Today’s plan is to make a list and sort out my brain. Lists are like magic sometimes, how they can just untangle a lot of stress by getting the thoughts on paper. That’s all for now.
