Anticipation

Standard

Unitooth is home! 🙂

________

Things aren’t exactly stable. So I don’t feel very good about this whole thing. Overall, I wish people were more considerate to the pawns in the situation. And also struck by the realisation that most of us are nothing more to other people than sacrificial chess pieces on a huge board. 

That Rest

Standard

And maybe mama just needs to get some of that. Don’t get me wrong, I have the best intentions. I just think she’s led a long, full life and maybe now is enough.

I think I’ll pray that she’ll sleep a nice long sleep tonight and that she will be more confortable.

You don’t ah, wait I ‘feeet’ you.

Peace

Standard

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thine intercession was left unaided.

Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my mother; to thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me.

Amen.

Some days feel right

Haze

Standard

Oh my, this haze thing just needs to stop. I think I’m just stressed because of everyone talking about it all the time. And you know what? I agree with everyone, and all the harmful effects.. But we can’t do much right..? Just get on with life.

Leather

Standard

and then there are days like today when I would really like to fall asleep..

_______

You know sometimes you need to adjust your stirrup length and you look down and the stirrup leathers are leather (not the sticky synthetic sort) and yet, no matter how hard you try, but buckle just won’t give- you really need it to go just one hole down for a more relaxed leg position but it just won’t give. And you try at this slightly short length and try and convince yourself it’s okay- but in the back of your mind you know it’s not and it bugs you..  Yeah. That feeling.

Old, New

Standard

tonight was actually quite nice. I’m so glad I was situated where I was and I’m so glad I accepted the invitation.

Anyone ever tell you that you’re going to learn, trust and respect are two things you must earn.
