We missed you! After a long-feeling but actually not that long hiatus, we’re back with a new episode. Click on that underlined part to listen if you haven’t already! If you HAVE already listened, please use the comment section on this post as your official discussion thread & I’ll pop in there to join at some point, of course!
Patience Is a Virtue!
I have so many thoughts about this episode, but can so related to Busy's feeling about the dentist, and specifically hygienists who have made me cry and tortured me with high-pitched tools. I have found a hygienist who is really great with me, and I think it's because she mostly works with children, and has a child with sensory issues, so totally gets it. Find someone like that! Also, Caissie, my heart is so with you as you go through the process of dealing with your mother's belongings. Moving my mother out of our family home after my (pack rat) father died, was incredibly challenging for my family, and we are a big family! But after she died 10 years later, it was again really difficult to deal with all the things. I wish I could go to Cape Cod to help you. (Also, if you are tossing any ashes off the whale-watching boat, be mindful of the wind direction. I speak from experience.)
Caissie, can you share a pic of the drawer pulls you are looking for? Going to a vintage furniture store this weekend and happy to keep an eye out for them. Maybe some other listeners will help hunt for them too.
