Dear Husband,
I have no idea how you’ve had the energy to take care of me and nurse me back to health these days. You’ve made me mashed potatoes and chicken noodle soup, you’ve taken me for walks, you’ve brought me Jan’s chocolate cake from Fresh Plus and Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups. You’ve hugged me and kissed me, you’ve cheered me up, you’ve made me laugh, and you’ve just made me feel better. I would like to request you as my nurse during all future illnesses and injuries.

Dear Sleep,
Where are you these days? I miss you. Come back soon.

Dear God,
Thank you for speedy recoveries. Thank you for medicines that work – both for me and for my friend, who feels better than ever. Thank you for coffee beans and sugar cane and red, ripe strawberries. Thank you for staying with me in times of fear and anxiety. It’s so nice knowing you’re there.

Dear Toads,
I hear you at night by the pond now, singing about summer. I missed you this winter, but now that you’re back, I wish you had a more convenient singing schedule. Can we say quiet time starts at midnight? K thx.

Dear Richard Linklater,
I can’t believe it’s taken me this long to watch Before Sunrise and Before Sunset. How lovely, romantic, intelligent, and hopeful! Please, sir, I want some more.

Hope you all have a great weekend!
