Good morning hippies. It’s been a challenging year. A 20 year relationship imploded spectacularly, my dog of almost 16 years passed in March, my dad died in June, and I recently had a medical scare. But I’ve got so much to be grateful for. I’ve met so many cool people this year.

Good morning hippies. Had to say goodbye to my father yesterday. He passed away around 3:30 Saturday morning. I can’t even explain how I’m feeling. Please be sure to let the people around you know how much they mean to you and how much you love them. Take care of each other.
