27 is Okay

I turned 27 after two months of fear and anxiety over the health of my grandparents.

I didn't find much to discuss--I just wanted to sink into a deep hug with a crazy old woman and let her love me and be near her.

The year leading up to 27, though, was filled with adventure:

  • the year started with beauty and friendship in Perth, Australia 
  • I got my first tattoo
  • my cat Ootzyde was stolen 
  • Julius's dog Ginger died
  • Julius worked on his Master's degree, and I worked on mine
  • We gardened, excessively
  • I travelled to beautiful Vancouver with my team from work for a conference 
  • I saw Kesha live in concert with Julius and our friends Jill and Michael
  • Spent some wonderful family time at Odomfest
  • Won best new poet in a town poetry contest
  • Traveled to Arizona for my cousin Kenzie's wedding 
It was a good year full of plants, travel, and preparation for the next to come.
