tcihwm (mostly eating, some reading)

Brainstorming and ice cream on the first day of summer! Found out that the local ice cream shop does half and half, so you can get 1 scoop, 2 flavours and a waffle cone for the best of all worlds! And a good spot to sit, enjoy and people watch. Don’t ask me to walk …

tcihwm (reflections)

the conversations I have with myself. I took the day off today. Hit play on life when everyone else dives for the >> button. Had a nap, cleaned house, read a ton, laughed, ate a kappa roll, thoughts on simmer with LOTR, GA, TIU, poems, acronyms and interactions. Fire, like the one that’s burning brightly, …

Adrift epilogue

I got back from Japan and spent the week generally just going through the motions. If the clock changes 1 more time, I think I will have to scream, haha 🙂 Journalling my thoughts on the adventure and creating this series of blog posts took significant time and energy, but was a necessary and fulfilling …

Adrift (14)

October 18: Home on solid ground Leaving Japan on the afternoon of the 18th, we crossed the International Date Line and arrived into Vancouver International Airport bright and early around 8am on October 18th (again). The mind boggles… Dad was there to pick us up, smiling and inquiring about breakfast (??!!). My mind stayed boggled …
