The human heart wasā€”and remainsā€”a mystery to me. But Iā€™m learning. I have to. ā€”Anthony Bourdain

Life is short, week 42 of 52

Status report: Second booster kicked my šŸ‘ but itā€™s better than risking my third season of covid.

Here are my reminders of the week about why we get up in the morning:

1. Pepper moving in with me and Chester. So it hasnā€™t been easy. In fact itā€™s been insanely difficult trying to fit two very territorial, not small, headstrong rabbits in such a small space, but weā€™re finding a way. Her full name is now Pepperoncini (family traditiion) and sheā€™s a BIG GIRL. I love her already. I hope she and Chester find their love for each other soon.

2. Seeing family and eating a lot, too much, after almost 3 years. In traditional All Saintā€™s Day, itā€™s a whole day of sitting around mauseleums with family, praying and eating. Since we canā€™t risk it right now, we travelled as a whole group to go early. Had several moments of note. All the food was amazing. Definitely worth the trek.

3. Meaningful conversations. Iā€™ve had a lot of meaningful conversations lately. It takes a lot out of me, but it matters. Taking the time to show up for myself, and people I care about, matters. It also helps to keep yourself in check, and being vulnerable also helps us keep ourselves real.

Song of the week: Feel so Good by Mase
