Haven't been here in a while. I've been in the wires other places when not colouring in or buried in notebooks. If you have Substack please come and join me!

So late in the game but this was a huge win for me at the beginning of the year. Still so pleased about it.

Thanks to the amazing poets … @mrirwin.bsky.social @garretandbasement.bsky.social @writeangled.bsky.social @lenaozge.bsky.social @wordsmithwitch.bsky.social @emilyaf47.bsky.social @simonmaddrell.bsky.social @navkiranmann.bsky.social @nblascsok.bsky.social @bornonadarkmoon.bsky.social

Heres 2 things to ponder today; 1. ‘It’s raining men’& ‘let the the bodies hit the floor’ are really the same song from different perspectives 2. Nobody really has their sh*t together, you just get older and give less of a f*ck about it all 🤷🏻‍♀️

This had me in creases today…and yet I thought it was 🔥

Posted this at the old place, but thought folks on @bsky.app might like to know I finally met my "mother".

First post. No pressure. Just need to say something really meaningful & clever. I can do that. Honestly, I can, I’ve done it many times. Tell them about the squirrel on your house today and how you talked to them and called them Frank. No, they won’t want to know that. Who wants to colour in?
