Okay, maybe not super recent ~ This photo is courtesy of Tejas Photography/C. Schmitz , 2016. But I use it as a profile pic for my TheSnarkyWidow facebook page. Because, well, I’m still me.

You know what else heals? MAUI! My first vacation as a widow, and living my best life out on the lanai. May 2019

“A glowing ember
Burning hot
And burning slow
Deep within I’m shaken by the violence
Of existing for only you
I know I can’t be with you
I do what I have to do”
