white snow on rooftops
red tulips on southern slopes

Finally! On Easter the last of our snow melted. We have flowers for the first time since winter arrived. This post is for my mother, who picked violets for her mother, once upon a time.
Happy Spring!

This is a public service announcement for writers and other humans:
If you’ve ever confused stalactites with stalagmites, here’s a hint: mites crawl.

Brave Sir Tintin (1999–2017)
Tintin was an excellent cat. Orphaned on the frigid November streets of Ottawa at the tender age of six months, he nevertheless established a loving home complete with devoted human servants. Well-traveled and handsome to a fault, he remained a homebody who adored a good cuddle by the fire. He was sprightly enough to catch mice despite having no front claws, but never missed an opportunity to lounge in a sunbeam.
Tintin passed away following complications from lymphoma which, according to his vet, would have felled a lesser cat long ago.
He was loved, and he will be sorely missed.

You know how some Mondays you wake up to grey skies and a sheet of ice on your front step, and you have a million things on your list you’re not sure you can do and everything could be awful… but somehow it’s not? Yeah, for me that day is today:)
For you too, hopefully!

Love is that condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own.
