  How is it that we are staring at (American) Thanksgiving already? I truly can't wrap my brain around this yet, but I will admit to greatly enjoying decorating the house this last weekend, as we ready for kids and family in the coming weeks. This is our second holiday in this particular home, although I'm not sure that last year really counted, given that we moved mid-December and were still very much in a pre-vaccine pandemic, so we are making sure to enjoy and savor every ritual.

I pulled over to let her go safely. I've been hiding her in paintings ever since, but today she declared that she wanted to be the star. Who am I to argue with a good luck omen?

And..... in a nod to the blue jay feathers I found earlier this week, there's a feather painted on the left hand edge of Borealis to help one speak their
