To The Bone
“I’m just weary.”
Did I Mention?
“This last weekend, a lovely home owner allowed me to dig up runner strawberries that had escaped from her yard to add to my mobile garden’s replenishment.”
A Three Weeks’ View
“Three weeks ago, I was told I qualified at last for a first service.
Then I went to an office to finish the paperwork and update the other paperwork for a second service.
Then, I was told to go fix something at a third service the next week by the fiirst service – which I did – and I also had to go back to do more paperwork on the second service because the prior week’s efforts triggered more questions, so that’s week’s efforts and precious gas expense weren’t enough.
Then, the first service communications completely topped and connections disappeared, no matter any diverse attempts to contact.
Second service disconnected help despite compliance due to limited staff not processing paperwork properly, so today on the phone for hours and maybe it will be reactivated.
A fourth service last week said come back this week.
Meanwhile, third service is still in the mired cogworks.
However, I just now got a call from a hard-working advocate that second services will be restored – but not until tomorrow, and now reduced.

Ever After
“When the end of a harsh age ends, and now you get your chance to be happy with someone worthy.”
(Drag Me Under – Sleep Token)
Sometimes,
“It sure feels like things will never get better.”
“WEEEDS!”
“Ma’am, did you know that your garden is harboring some fugitives?!”
My Love,
If you knew how much I feel for you, would you hesitate a minute more?
Oh yes, it’s hidden beneath layers…
Needing to survive has taken its toll.

A Day Off
“Time for a nap.”
Compromise
“Ok-Ok – Yes,
My new microwave still has that silly-stupid lock release button on it that drives me crazy – yet probably is muey essential for other people with specific lock mechanism need requirements.
However, this version requires that I push that little button with my right finger and I can then pull the handled door open with my left hand – which balances my injured brain’s need for a more even load dispersion.
Also, the silver and black coloring blends it better into m y kutchen’s decor, the buttons are grouped and displayed in a way that is calming and even tentatively inviting – and it has “arm floaty” sticker directions on top of the unit as a handy-dandy, friendly guidance prompt system encouragement!
Grounded
Like a plow horse worked too hard with little rest, there was no more “get up” in her “go.”
Still
She became as a stone.

By Athena Stairs – June 5, 2026
As we fly
Over all the memories
High above all reveries
I’ll hold you
To me
In your eyes
Brighter than a diamond’s light
Greater than the heavens might
There’s a truth
We see
Wherever
Fate would have us press our wings
Driven to find reasoning
I’ll show you
The keys
And you’ll see
Nothing can prevent our course
Sanctified by past remourse
We’re written in stars
I love you
More than any words can sing
Where winter ends I’ll be your spring
And we’ll know
Such peace
You’re coming home today with me
We’re gonna find that life’s complete
And every dream we ever had
Will no longer be mad or sad
Because we’ll have our second chance together
And you’ll know
You belong
To me
Yeah
We’ll have
Our destiny

I dream of our getting to help each other heal by our having our lives together.

“Remember when you thought you were done?
And then you realized suddenly you weren’t?
Yeah…
How’s that workin’ for ya?”
My Love,
The lies and burdens they put upon me…
It has made me need to be very careful with you.
