Wonder. Wander.

Black people, people of color, queer people, trans people, women, immigrants, and pretty anyone who is not a white male are on the chopping block for the next four years if we don’t stay locked in and intervene at every attempt to silence and oppress these groups.

Literally tied up in Arizona…👀

I mended my mom’s coat pocket today. Dropped everything and addressed it. I handed it back to her freshly mended. Took no time and my urgency to get it done wasn’t even a thought, I just did it. I looked in my closet at my wool coat and stuck my hand in the right pocket. It’s had a hole in it for a year.

I grabbed it right then and mended it. Even stitched some zigzag stitches so it won’t unravel in the wash or dry cleaners.

Seems like a small task. But I’m taking care of myself this year. With the same urgency (and more) as I take care of others.

I don’t know why the hell it was so easy for me to walk around with a hole in my pocket for a year and jump to fix someone else’s…but that’s all changing now.
