In miracles, I believe. I only trust in what I can see, but Spring surrounds us with the most tangible evidence of our creator's work! The flowers, the scents, and all the life abound. Even the foul reek of flowering pear I hold dear.
Once more, it's been far too long since I've recorded anything on my online log, but the warm air and sunshine have finally lifted my weary spirits. I now have two ferrets, as of nearly a month ago! I adopted this one from a small private shelter in Ohio--and named her Stripe, after the suggestion of a dear friend. It's very fitting, her being a terrible biter, and by very far, the most vicious ferret I've ever handled. I bear the scars and a few fresh wounds to prove it, and I love her more and more with each splash of blood that smears her creamy coat. It's apparent why she was up for adoption, but the solution is clear: she needs love, and patience. Since her adoption on February 27th, she has progressed from completely timid to chasing me around the house wanting to play, though still with the occasional strong bite.
Spring also has me confident in another great year ahead, my final year to enjoy my 20's.
Winter shattered me, like it always does, but I stood up to it better than any year I can remember this time around; I'm getting stronger.
Winter also made me a terrible Minecraft addict, making everything from pixel art to castles, houses, roller coasters, to complicated booby traps. I even made some music. My little backyard and re-diving into writing will end that eventually, I'm sure--but only for awhile ;P
