I tried to take a photo of the morning every day this week and got waylaid by 3 days of migraines and recovery. But it started off nice.
It’s been six years since I have had a full set of songs and my body hasn’t done well with the stress. I am really looking forward to bookending these long, troubling Covid and post-Covid years, but I’ll have to figure out how to not feel like my body is gonna fall apart when I return to music.
Please forgive me on Saturday if I’m seeming spaced out or otherwise ungrounded. I’m working on it!
Here is a sample first draft sketch of a new song I started during February Album Writing Month.
Tentatively titled, Like it Never Happened, it’s another song about making peace. Images are portraits.
Some things in life are worth missing.

It’s been 10.5 weeks since I’ve had a vomiting migraine after a few months of hellishness, getting them every three weeks. No time to recover fully. I think things are turning though. So many good changes — I was let go at a job that kept me trapped in a water damaged building for hours. Now I work from home, make bread and soup, sauna daily, take a few remedies that are finally getting it done, and regular acupuncture. No more joint pain.
I finally went outside for my first walk this year. So beautiful. I keep thinking of each moment as a flower, and if I look up I see myself at the center of an infinite field of flowers.
Keep dreaming of happiness, everyone. 💕
