*a sweet, sweet post and all of the loving and supportive messages it received.
*an anniversary of note.
*new hair. hoorah!
*a cocktail and some tapas with new and much loved friends (who made my lover feel close, though he is not here).
*a 2-hour skype session with a long time friend and her wife in melbourne, much laughter, much gesticulating, much recounting, much love.
I am blessed.
