What if What if the world is dying? Do we leave that which we love? What if democracy is failing? Do we abandon hope? Everything and everyone we love Has always been dying The flip side of loving That which is mortal That which is finite Everything we love has limits Our love does not

Stayed up way too late last night but, worth it! Taken through our telescope with my phone. Handheld bc the little contraption that’s supposed to hold the phone to do this, wasn’t lining the correct lens up and nothing I did seemed to fix it.

The news is bad Like always Greedy corporations cashing in On our despair I go to the woods Take my soul for a walk Air it out Breathe out the despair The trees take in Turn it back into oxygen Unseen birds chirp lullabies Each note Gives me back myself

Having a buddy for those six miles walks makes them go faster!

Ten miles at long hunter today, and more frost flowers! No, I’m not tired of them yet. Yes, I did resist taking pictures of every single one, partly bc there were so many I’d have gotten no hiking in 🤣

Cold and frosty 5.5 ish miles on the greenway this morning, and I found dozens of frost flowers! And even found a few in my own yard too! Fixed myself a proper hot breakfast at 11 am when I got back to warm up.

I look out of the window of my house as I write, thinking of the wars, the genocide, the gleeful exaltation of the opposite of good, the perversion of justice, and I feel Julian reaching to me across time, looking out the window of her anchorhold… aehowardwrites.substack.com/p/everything...

Thanksgiving: pomander making, table-scaping. The kids and I went outside and gather leaves, nuts, bark, and seed heads to make our centerpiece. Then we finished cooking with the parade’s replay playing in the background, and finally sat down to our feast. 1/

Had a great day down at Sewanee visiting and waking with Hannah Aloysius and Ellie the convent dog. After noon prayers, I left and hiked out on the perimeter trail a little ways and found a view spot for lunch before heading back home.

This book is like a retreat for the mind and soul. Simply gorgeous: I highly recommend it. Picture of Niall Williams’ novel Time of the Child #timeofthechild #niallwilliams @christinebreen.bsky.social

Rainy day walk. Pursuing my new hobby of learning to identify trees by bark. I’ll spare you the 60 something pictures I took of bark though ;-)

Axe throwing and a short hike at Bledsoe Creek this afternoon with the Girls Who Hike Tennessee. Finally starting to feel better after this sinus infection and asthma flare.

All my work at getting back into my body after the election had culminated in this: standing there hyper aware of a sandwich sizzling in a pan, in the middle of the day, in the middle of the week, in the middle of the story. aehowardwrites.substack.com/p/the-middle...

Resistance training is resistance! We’ll need strong hearts and strong bodies. And women, we need to be lifting weights! It prevents the muscle loss and bone loss that come with perimenopause and post menopause hormone levels. #strengthtraining #strengthtrainingforwomen #resistancetraining

I looked down at myself sitting in the rocking chair on my front porch the other day and thought, what a cute little round belly! And the thought surprised me. Because I hadn’t been loving my belly until then, despite my best efforts.… aehowardwrites.substack.com/p/so-al…
