The smell of dirt after a long winter
the call of the sandhill cranes
watching the leaf buds burst open on the aspen trees
visiting my favorite glacier lily patch
house wrens move into our luxury bird house… congratulations to the happy couple
visits with friends
swapping winter clothes for spring clothes
a fresh pair of colorful socks
new underwear
a long hug
coming home from anywhere
spying a yellow warbler from my home office window
a cat on my lap and then add another cat and then add the dog
dinner at a friend’s house
the first daffodil
clean bed sheets
waking up with no extra fluid around my heart
waking up with fluid around my heart but knowing help is almost here
Share Letters from a Heart Patient
a clean, fluffy towel
leopard lilies blooming on our property
my cardiologist allowing me to text him so I can quell my nerves
the dawn chorus. one morning I counted 26 species in 10 minutes on my land.
sunshine in my eyes right after waking
coffee with Jason
a family hike
the smell of rain - petrichor
the sound of rain on our metal roof
90’s hip hop
the smell of the honeysuckle flower
daily walks with my cats and dog
hearing from a new listener of the podcast
the first rhubarb harvest and the taste of the first rhubarb crisp
scoring hard-to-get tickets to two summer concerts
finding the first morel
the first Fairy-Slipper
a perfectly made cup of tea
warm chai with a friend in the morning sun
a light breeze in my hair
dirt under my fingernails
my dad’s voice on the other end
my best friend’s voice on the other end
making plans of any kind
feeling safe
feeling hope
laughing til my belly aches
homemade granola
and going to bed knowing I am loved.
