First #fullmoon of the year is almost here! In the middle of a chaotic (and freezing!🥶)weekend, a much needed moment of peace. #wolfmoon (at Queens, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/CYx6tHjOImK/?utm_medium=tumblr

On #newyearseve I caught this image from my window just before the clouds closed in, which pretty much summed up last year: a few bright, shining moments in a time when paths were totally cloudy and horrifically unclear. So I'm stretching the last sunrise of #2021 into the first day in #2022 just because sometimes you've got to create your own #sunshine moments, now more than ever! Anyway, Happy #newyearsday everybody; let the sunshine in, and let's seize EVERY day in #2022 !! (at Queens, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/CYM7h2uv32u/?utm_medium=tumblr

This was a #merrychristmas🎄 and #happyanniversary present so this is either the hubby's way of saying he believes in me 🥰, or a hint that I need to get back to work! 😖 #hplaptop #married3years #writerslife (at Queens, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/CX7FiHOvuXe/?utm_medium=tumblr

When you're on vacation and you have more tech than desks, a few "beary"🐻💻 cute improvisations and a strong #tmobile signal can come in handy! One of the many blessings from being married to a Mad Scientist/Tech God! 🤓🥰 (at Denmark, South Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/CW_NQDdLSBQ/?utm_medium=tumblr

#19years ago, the view from #fultonstreet approaching #broadway was its own brand of glorious, and a glorious LIE all at once. When those towers fell, our sense of security was ruined, our sense of freedom was questioned, and greed was still good for some, but prosperity NEVER trickled down to the rest... *sigh* There's MANY directions, essays and an aggressive expansion of verbal RAGE I could take this moment... this morning... but for NOW, I'm glad I'm still here to observe all the changes and remember those who would never get the chance to see them... the glorious lies, and the TRUE gloriousness that's still out there. #19years #wearestillhere #ripstephanieveronicairby (at New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/CE_lqhuDHFe/?igshid=rw96zuyrwua6
