I'm in the kitchen with Aunty Jordan and Mama, putting the finishing touches on the appetizers for Thanksgiving dinner as I remind them to be nice and not to pry.+

Sitting by the pool at Mama's house, sipping coffee and eating a ginger cookie, just enjoying the peace and quiet before the chaos of the day starts.

I'm sitting in the dining area at Mama's house, decorating mason jars to use as candle holders and painting decorative pumpkins for tomorrow's Thanksgiving dinner. +

My current roleplay accounts...

MCM...my pretty boy. I'm so happy I met you. // @ghostofthefamily.bsky.social

I said goodbye to Tilly this morning and then had an early lunch at Max’s restaurant before leaving New Orleans. When Zeke and I arrive back in LA, I stop at the bookstore on my way home and press the buzzer for the apartment upstairs. // @ghostofthefamily.bsky.social

I’m relaxing in the tub when I send @ghostofthefamily.bsky.social a text, attaching a few pictures of me in said tub. 💬 how was your day, baby?

Breakfast time

Spent the day with Tilly, now Zeke and I are curled up in the hotel room with takeout from my favourite New Orleans restaurant. I take a bite of my sandwich and send a text to @ghostofthefamily.bsky.social 💬 How's the studying going?

Zeke and I got an early start this morning and we're on the plane, about halfway to New Orleans. Zeke is curled up on the couch and I'm eating breakfast.

The store is open but empty, so I'm sitting at the counter, sipping coffee and making a grocery list for Thanksgiving as I quietly sing along to the music I have playing. +

I've spent my day cooking and freezing meals for my trip. I like cooking there, but it's nice to have some meals just...done. Now I'm making honey-habenaro pork chops with mashed potatoes and apple slaw for dinner.

When my afternoon classes get cancelled, my friend and the owner of the dance studio, Lexi, tosses a dress and heels at me. "Let's go for a nice lunch. Get changed." I grin and quickly change before walking back out to her. "You're bossy." She nods. "Yup." We leave the dance studio.

Breakfast, then a day of classes.

Early church, then breakfast with Mama and Aunty Jordan.

When I get home from the trip, I kick off my shoes and collapse on my bed.

(Story) I help Haven open the store and then I head down the street to the bookstore and go inside. // @hauntedblueeyes.bsky.social

When I wake up early, I shower and get dressed before making myself coffee and curling up on the lanai. -breakfast, checkout, hike through the nature reserve, flight home-

I get back to the room after my solo shopping trip and hide the gifts in my bag before laying down on the bed and closing my eyes until @ghostofthefamily.bsky.social gets back from surfing

I stretch with a small squeak when I wake up and then turn and curl back into @ghostofthefamily.bsky.social, nuzzling my face into his chest. -didn't even bother trying to sleep in my own bed last night. maybe I shouldn't have changed the reservation from the prettier room with the king sized bed.-

Woke up in the middle of the night unable to fall back to sleep, so I got dressed and now I'm curled up on the lanai of our room, looking at the ocean.

I wake with a start from a nightmare and take slow breaths as I grip the blankets and blink at the unfamiliar sights and sounds of our hotel room. // @ghostofthefamily.bsky.social

I got to the plane at 6 after dropping Zeke off with Mama and I stored my luggage before curling up in a seat to wait for @ghostofthefamily.bsky.social. -I know the security and people outside preparing for takeoff will direct him to the right place, so I don't feel the need to stand outside.-

When I get home, I sigh at the drugstore bag and the note from Aunty Jordan on the entryway table. I pick up the bag and mutter, "Not even here and she's bloody bossy. Fine. I'll take the goddamn test." I go up to my room after letting Zeke into the backyard, closing the door behind me.+

MCM...I'm enjoying getting to know this gorgeous guy. // @hauntedblueeyes.bsky.social

MCM...I'm enjoying getting to spend time with this pretty boy. // @ghostofthefamily.bsky.social

When I get up, I get ready for the day and go down to the kitchen to make breakfast for me and the girls before our day at the park today. Zeke is staying close to my side and occasionally bumping my leg with his head like he always does when I’m struggling to stay calm.

I keep my eyes closed as I listen to Zelda and Leliana whisper and lead Zeke out of my bedroom, meeting Haven in the hallway. Once they’re gone, I open my eyes and look out the window. -maybe I do need a break. I’m not coping well. Maybe I should go to Aspen early.-

Haven and Story are handling the store today and I have no lessons, so I'm out with the little girls, Zeke, and Uncle Dallas.+

Zelda, Leliana, Zeke and I are home now and I take the girls up to their room and get them ready for bed before tucking them in and reading them a story. When they’re asleep, I turn off the light and go to leave the room, whispering softly to Zeke, “Oh? You’re staying with them? Traitor.”+

I closed the store early when my friend's older brother Finlay showed up with my goddaughters, Zelda and Leliana. The girls waited in my car as Fin explained that he'll be back on Monday. He kissed my head and left.+

Zeke and I have been at the store for hours since I couldn't fall back asleep after my nightmare last night, and I've reorganized the whole store.+

I’ve barely fallen asleep when I wake up from a nightmare…memory…screaming. +

Classes this morning, so I'll be in my happy place.

My sisters went out, so I'm in my pjs in the theatre with Chinese takeout and a banana split, watching A Walk To Remember with Zeke. And yes, I'm starting with dessert first.

Haven and Story are at the store this morning, so I'm curled up in my office at home, sipping coffee as I handle invoicing for my dance classes and ordering for the store.
