The tree and perimenopause/menopause analogy rings true for me too. And what striking tree companions! My husband also wooed me as a more avid reader then he really is. To be fair, I haven't looked under his pillow in ages so perhaps I don't know everything. :)

Happy holidays and thank you for sharing your days and stories with us. Your publication is a "portal of awe."

This has warmed my heart this Yuletide . Chandler , I can’t thank you enough for your support - I really value it . It’s been a real high to meet like-minded souls on here like you and I’m really grateful for it .

I’m blushing at ‘ portal of awe’ but if mine is that then yours is a delightful castle of awesome . I’m not sure if I’m making sense but I hope you get the gist!

Winter blessings to you - and yeah check your husband’s pillow 😉🫶x
