Hoping for the best, preparing for the worst

As I begin to plant my garden, I’m focusing on three key areas:

1) Plants for the pollinators

2) Flowers for me, particularly night blooming ones

3) Fruit, veg and herbs

This last category is of particular importance in 2026 as the U.S. war on Iran continues, food and gas prices soar, tariffs affect access to affordable goods/services and supply chains break down. Throw in a lack of security in my fie

Bram Stoker
“I will not let you go into the unknown alone.”
Bram Stoker

Stuart McLean
“We do this thing. We open our hearts to the world around us. And the more we do that, the more we allow ourselves to love, the more we are bound to find ourselves one day - like Dave, and Morley, and Sam, and Stephanie - standing in the kitchen of our live, surrounded by the ones we love, and feeling empty, and alone, and sad, and lost for words, because one of our loved ones, who should be there, is missing. Mother or father, brother or sister, wife or husband, or a dog or cat. It doesn't really matter. After a while, each death feels like all the deaths, and you stand there like eveyone else has stood there before you, while the big wind of sadness blows around and through you.
"He was a great dog," said Dave.
"Yes," said Morley. "He was a great dog.”
Stuart McLean

Stephen  King
“Time is the water, Charlie. Life is just the bridge it flows under.”
Stephen King, Fairy Tale

J.R.R. Tolkien
“Farewell," they cried, "Wherever you fare till your eyries receive you at the journey's end!" That is the polite thing to say among eagles.

"May the wind under your wings bear you where the sun sails and the moon walks," answered Gandalf, who knew the correct reply.”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Annotated Hobbit: The Hobbit, or, There and back again

Megan Mullally
“All I ever want to do is read. I only leave the house under duress.”
Megan Mullally, The Greatest Love Story Ever Told
