The thing about life... it continues on. Going through old photographs. Getting bands on braces replaced. Climbing trees on a spontaneous outing. Window cat. Picture day at school. Meeting up with friends (and my best friend's new pup) at our favorite cafe. Watching our niece/cousin's homecoming talk.
I didn't forget to post last week; it was intentional. I needed a moment to collect myself, a moment to breathe. I'll post more when I'm ready, but not now. Not yet. In the mean time, two weeks ago. Hiking Pass Mountain with my favorite person. Attending the Desert Botanical Gardens (with the mr. and my parents). Celebrating Veterans Day, reverse parade style. Playing out front. Having a rough day and finding comfort in my cat. NO PHOTO: this was the day that I found out that one of my closest and best friends from high school had been killed. Learning what it means to grieve.
Going through Halloween candy. I voted. Helping my dad after some miscommunication (and some wrong assumptions on my part). Computer cat. Playing tug-of-war with string. Watching history unfold. Sneak peek of Christmas card photos.
I'm behind. But I needed a moment when the election came around. It was as if I was holding my breath for days, waiting to hear the results. And now that the race has been called and we are able to move forward, so can I. Annoyed cats. National Black Cat Day (with a very naughty black cat of my own). Getting back into the flow of yoga. Swinging out back. Dressing up for school festivities. Completing another 5k. Hiking Camelback and striking my normal pose.
