10/10/2025: Nothing to Report

Some weeks are literally just throwaways. I have nothing of note to report. 

It’s hard to take all the lows at once, but sometimes when it rains it just pours and pours. Despite the fact that a number of things went wrong every day, there were still a few things that went well. I just have to be willing to see those minute and rare things. In the endless sea of chaos, worry, loneliness, and pain, there were moments of peace and joy, fleeting as they may have been. And with a rough series of days behind me, things seem to be looking up again. 

I’m starting this beautiful fall morning with some tea and another movie that I love watching this time of year, and I look forward to spending time with friends tomorrow. Even if things aren’t always carefree and uplifting, at least I have all my favorite seasonal pastimes to lift my spirits. 

Soon after this month, we’ll also be preparing for a long-awaited and much needed trip home to see friends and family. It’ll also be a time to plan for our more permanent homecoming as well. I’m excited to take the next steps in securing the place that we’ll call our own as we chase our dreams and make new memories together where it all began, in our small town. 

At least I have these things to look forward to in the near future.
