I wanted to write upon this post because, first of all, I feel lucky to be able to read this moment of adventure in your day (your posts, daily adventures and chair photography are a part of what I miss about social media) and also that I’ve read this post multiple times because the post script of you getting the panettone gives me a burst of joy each and every time.

I am now also in 2024 budget mode, with a new mortgage and my divorce monies ending in June this year. I’m not sure I’ll ever be able to work in a traditional way away, and that is scary. I’m grateful to have a partner who is an egalitarian and who is honest and will let me know what contributions I can make so there is no resentment. But I dream of a time where we run a small creative art inn together and somehow manage that way.

I love how honest and open you are about your life, and your difficulties and your joys. I’m grateful for your friendship, and also all the beautiful things you have done for poetry and your community. Mostly I’m just grateful you exist, and that the world is a more whimsical place with you in it.
