This is lovely, Kim, thanks for sharing it—I get it on a variety of levels 🙂 I’ve fully retreated into proverbial peace and quiet in 2024 after my most recent breakup in Jan, and it’s been deeply restorative, but also a touch boring. Maybe deeply restorative requires a touch of boredom? I dunno. But anyway, I feel you 😄

thank you, kate! i think you're right — peace, quiet, and calm naturally comes along with a little boredom. but that's okay; boring is always better than bad. glad i'm not alone!

I loved this and the new name and the potluck invitation! I’ve been thinking the same thing lately about being too connected and joking that we need to go back to landline phones and 8-cents-a-minute calls 😂 to cut down on all this communication 😂 (Maybe I’m entering my Luke Danes era?)
