Oh, what a week. A few weeks back I said the week had been long and emotional, and boy has this one been so much heavier. My heart aches.
I’m going to try to keep this newsletter as light as I can. Not to push anything aside, but hopefully to bring a gentle breeze through what feels like thick, oppressive air.

I didn’t make it to the craft fair because I ended up spending the entire weekend in bed resting, blasting through the entirety of the final season of Insecure and starting the new RuPaul’s Drag Race All-Stars. I’ve watched more television in the span of the last three weeks than I have in the last three months. But at least I feel like I’m getting well.
Really looking forward to the long weekend for Memorial Day.

Since I had an egg section I am including this old internet treasure. I hope whoever took this photo bought this t-shirt.

Sometimes you just need to watch someone pull beautiful old treasures out of a river.
I hope you have a great weekend -- take it easy. Rest, do a little self care, and try to go outside. ❤️
