Hey guys! We are going to try something new this week, cool? I haven’t used the “Threads” feature on Substack, and I would love to give it a go and see if we can connect with each other. So, change is in the air. We are halfway between the Fall Equinox and Winter Solstice, we’ve cleared Halloween, and Thanksgiving is looming in the distance, its festive, merry companions not far behind. How are you guys feeling about this? What is this season like for you? Full disclosure, as this is my first divorced holiday season, it’s a bit on the heavy side. We are dealing with a balance of making festive fun and allowing ourselves some melancholy, grief, and remembering. How are YOU all doing?
Oh it’s gonna be a heavy holiday season here. My dad died in April (F*CK PARKINSON’S) and mom is hurting hard. Thanksgiving is my all-time favorite holiday and the best I can hope for this year is that it still is my favorite come December. 😕
Hoping to support my daughter and granddaughters in the best possible way.
Love you, mom.

Oh, I hope it is, too. Holidays amidst grief are so, so hard. I'm sending you and your mom so much love this season.
