@Beckdawrek shouldn’t feel the need to always be happy for us. But I appreciate that she does care enough to not want to worry us.

Still, if you, like all of us, want a (textual) hug please feel free to reach out.

We’re here.

This is very much true. This is also the place to wail when needed.

I’m ok. Fair to middlin’.

I had a weird procedure done today that scared the crap outta me but it went far easier than I thought.

Tonight I’m swimming with the current.

Thx, everyone for hugs, and well wishes.

Love you all💗
