My sister asked to borrow a pajama shirt and ended up picking one of my Steven Universe shirts because it had Japanese writing on it. So we were both in SU shirts this morning!

My mother just died. It was such a blessing to have my sisters fly in and be with me to go through this together.

Went to see the Trans Town Hall at the MCC this week. Great presentation about the new trans-hostile laws in Florida and what is being done to mitigate their harm and fight against them.

Sister Lindsay and brother-in-law Mike were in town for the holidays so I had them over for Christmas Eve with Mom and Jeaux. Yummy dinner, but everything was kind of on the cold side. Bad management.
