A little overcast today, but I'm so, so, so glad patio season is back in action in Minnesota.

Not gonna lie: I still can't caption this photo for you without crying. After 14+ years together, 22 days ago I had to say good bye to Ellipses, no thanks to stupid ol' cancer. I miss him every day. He was MY cat. Of course I've had many wonderful kitties in my life, but he was my first solo adoption. I picked him and he picked me. But... this photo came up on my phone's highlight widget and it made me smile. Bittersweet: it was too soon to let him go but I'm so, so glad for the time we had.

[image description: Ellipses laying on the kitchen island even though he was very aware that this was a spot he wasn't allowed to be. I could never say no to him, though. Such a spoiled little buddy! He was naughty in a funny way and I totally loved him for it.]

Did the vaccination thing. This means I can safely & guiltlessly get a massage and pedicure in two weeks, right?

[image description: I took a selfie with my band-aid decorated shoulder outside of the Minneapolis Convention Center after I got the J&J vaccine. The Foshay Tower and other notable downtown Minneapolis buildings are visible in the background and that's the main reason I took this selfie. I love this Land of 10,000 Lakes skyline.]
