I stopped by my parents' house last night to pick something up and Mom asked me to sew on a button while I was there. While rifling through her office for the jar of buttons I also saw the little lidded amber had sitting there empty. I announced that she should give it to me because it matched my room. She agreed and home it came. . . . Ways I am like my mother: inexplicable fondness for old glass. Ways I am not like my mother: feminist killjoy.
Muscadines remind me that God is good even in August in Georgia. I love that they are seasonal and regional and you don't get them unless you also enter the sweltering humidity that is the southeast.
I found this top on clearance for $6. Do you know how rare it is to find even super clearanced plus size clothes for under $15??? So, in honor of this soft, light,dream of a top I am wearing a seasonally appropriate outfit for August in Georgia. I may even venture into public with my bare arms. But first, a 4 hour video conference meeting.

Found poetry: "Never Diet Again." Beat them away / away again./ again and again./for good./ You're okay as you are. (Original: First Place for Health by Carole Lewis) . . . #fatandfaithful #allbodiesaregoodbodies #effdietculture #makeblackoutpoetry #holyblackedout #fatpositiveart
