Happy Chai bunny day!

3 years ago today, I brought home Chai. She had lived her first year with a great family who realized that she wasn't getting a full life, & stuck in a small cage the mother felt is was cruel. I got so very lucky that she picked ME, out of so many others to give Chai bunny (at that time Thumper Louise) a home. I kept her names but added Chai! For a bunny who is supposed as quiet, she makes loads of adorable noises. She whines, grunts, etc & the first time she tried a banana she was so in love she ate the peel not knowing any better. She has been a huge source of pure joy in my life, was quietly with me when we said goodbye to Zoe, after 15 years of her in my heart, & she lovingly senses when I'm really sick & softly jumps on the bed & licks the sheets around me. I am so lucky to have this amazing creature in my life. Xxxxooooo Chai bunny!

Making it rain!

One of my favorite apps is Strange Rain-it rains on your screen like an upside-down skylight. Here is the fun I had making it rain during this awful drought. (doesn't take much to keep me occupied)

Washed out

At times, even on the best of days, I find myself in that place again. The pain in so searing, so all consuming, that I have to let it take over me & drown in it a bit before I'm able to make it to that next moment.

Making the banal interesting

Today I woke up & within an hour knew my fever was climbing. When I got upstairs, took my temp & had 101 degrees (F). This pic is the before knowing, putting it off, bored with the recognized familiarity.



While watching True Blood this morning, catching this image in the vampire bar restroom was so striking...a girl crying while sitting in front of the toilet. I go through periods of fibro-nausea, & could oddly relate as I once had finally stopped throwing up after 3 straight days, only to start again, & I cried so hard I didn't recognize my own cries. It was one of the only times I've ever seen Chai bunny visibly shaken.
