I bought this silly plant when I felt so sad and unseen and destroyed. I bought it for myself after I'd asked my ex-partner to get me one more than three times and I wrote a note to myself on the delivery package that said, "u r a real boy" and then I told myself I would keep it alive and it represented me.

this silly little plant has far outlasted the relationship. I may not be very good at taking care of plants, but we're both still limping along. 

 

 

 yesterday I went to trader joe's on my lunch break and a ball of mozzarella pearls called out to me.

Tonight I lazed around, put holographic colors in my hair and then decided to just eat the cheese with a fork, while I sat around in a towel.

And I enjoyed it, with no worries about what someone else would think. 

I feel steady for the first time in years. 

I feel like I am starting to be able to direct my life again. 

thanks for the insight cheese balls

the magic of ritual

I haven't done shabbat or havdalah on my own since January, it made me cry too much missing my kiddo. but I did it this week, and I snorfled the besamim smells like she does. I spilled wine all over the floor and I laughed. I am remembering who I am, who I have always been.
