• @jabel Psychotherapist Francis Weller wrote a book called The Wild Edge of Sorrow which is about dealing with grief, and he talks about what he calls the five gates of grief: 1) everything we love, we will lose; 2) the places that have not known love (he is talking about what gives us shame); 3) the sorrows of the world; 4) what we expected and did not receive; 5) ancestral grief. I would venture to say that your trip brought healing to a few of these.

  • @tinyroofnail that is awesome!!!! 😹 One year I wanted to make a costume for myself with stuff lying around the house, so I went as a breakfast table: big square piece of cardboard with an old tablecloth glued to it, with a hole for my head in the middle. Glued some junkable coffee mugs and utensils around it. It was so fun. So many possibilities with being a filing cabinet! But I must say, that duck is a complete charmer. 😻

  • @tinyroofnail wow!!! dealing with firewood has come a long way!I feel like Rip Van Winkle! 😸 my father had a “farm use” 1940s jeep, a chainsaw, chains to haul logs, some help from neighbors, axe, kids to carry and stack.Getting firewood for the winter took us all year. Very much looking forward to seeing the video! edited to add: to this day, I still get a thrill from turning on a thermostat and voilà there is heat

  • @todd reading and appreciating

  • @jsonbecker I kind of wish you were seeing real walruses at your feet, but that would raise a whole different set of issues.
