Oh you have no idea how deep this goes. I created a lecture about him that I give to quilters. I own every book. I adore May Morris and admire Jane despite her multiple affairs.
I also exclusively use Golden Type.
I flew to London a few weeks ago just to go to the Morris Mania exhibit at The William Morris Gallery. I mention Morris at least once per day in conversation. In fact, a friend sent me this post. π

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"
When asked if he was going to visit the crash site he said, βwhat site? The water? You want me to go swimming?β This is one of the last pics of the young skaters who died. Heβs a sociopath. Anyone who voted for this monster should be ashamed at best.
i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isnβt just uncouth or βcontroversialβ but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country

Reasons to Live Through the Apocalypse Sunrises. People you have still to meet and laugh with. Songs about love, peace, anger, and revolution. Walks in the woods. The smile you exchange with a stranger when you experience beauty accidentally together. Butterflies. Seeing your grandparents again. The moon in all her forms, whether half or full. Dogs. Birthdays and half-birthdays. That feeling of floating in love. Watching birds eat from bird feeders. The waves of happiness that follow the end of sadness. Brown eyes. Watching a boat cross an empty sea. Sunsets. Dipping your feet in the river. Balconies. Cake. The wind in your face when you roll the car window down on an open highway. Falling asleep to the sound of a steady heartbeat. Warm cups of tea on cold days. Hugs. Night skies. Art museums. Books filled with everything you do not yet know. Long conversations. Long-lost friends. Poetry.
I wrote this on one of the darkest days of my life. It gave me an anchor to hold onto.

I need to go to bed but my cat just jumped on the couch and snuggled up next to me so I apparently now live on this couch.
My dog is also named Mabel and we cuddle too!
