This wonderful gentleman bought me the most beautiful and unique promise ring I could have ever hoped to receive. <3
It was handmade in Portland, Oregon by lumafina.
Cuppow, $8 and made in the USA, fits under the lid of your mason jar to turn it into a sippy-cup. Now you don’t have to take off the lid every time you want to drink from one. Hands saved from another useless task! (cup-POW)
rad!

Olympia - Who's Bad Party Time
I should’ve seen it coming
It could have been so much more than this
Does it make it any better?
The weight of your words still on my breath
Here’s some inspiration and stuff from Aaron James Draplin speaking for CreativeMornings in Portland, OR.
motivation
It comes in waves and I have to remember to not be so hard on myself when things seem to move at a snail’s pace. I feel more at peace when everything is calm and still; I can be content without so much as a smile.
my Bomber bunny when he was only a year old!! ♥♥
(he’ll be 5 this August)
Remember to enjoy the process as well as the outcome.

I know this will mess things up tonight
But god it feels so good to close my eyes
I’ll say that I’ve been trying to move on
We both know I’m not
It may be different now but the pattern won’t wash out
Covers up our eyes, leaves us knots and severed ties
We follow new lines
I would trade this sleep for you in a heartbeat
But this weather will not lift
It leaves us shouting into cliffs without an echo
Each day you come closer
So close I can almost feel your breath on my shoulders
But I know if I turn around you might run away again
Stuck like those prehistoric mammoths in the ice
Thaw me out and I won’t close my eyes
Stuck like those prehistoric mammals in the ice
Thaw me out and I won’t go to sleep tonight
this is such a beautiful track but it makes my heart hurt so bad…
There are only 42 days left to back this project. Please repost and donate if you can. Pledges are currently being matched 1-to-1 by The Austin Film Fund.
We are currently in production. We have shot over 75% of the film and plan to wrap principal photography this summer. We are raising funds to complete shooting. We are filming in LGBTQ senior communities across the country. Money will be used to cover the cost of everything from plane tickets and rental cars to hard drives and batteries.
Tracing a year in the lives, and a lifetime of experiences, “Untitled Gay Retiree Documentary” will confront the realities of aging in the LGBTQ community. While the filmmay not present a solution to the many challenges facing our LGBTQ elders, by giving them a voice, society will be forced to include them in a dialogue.
Directed by PJ Raval. Produced by Sara Giustini. Edited by Kyle Henry. Cinematography by Mike Simpson.

This isn’t sometimes
yeah, it’s for always
if I’m gonna love you with all of my heart
and if there is no more time,
this always remains.
Even as the world spins itself apart…
’Cuz I remember them days I waited so patiently
for God to bring someone who’s gonna be good to me
and then He blessed my soul
Well, I traveled a long way
and it took a long time to find you…
but i finally found you…
I remember all them lonely days
I traveled out on my own
Then you brought me everything
You made my house a home
If it’s not the real deal then I don’t know it
’cuz it sho’ does feel, and I think it sho’ does show
