Finally got out on a boat and it has saved my life

me: I am absolutely loving this chilly weather! also me: oh wow, I bet this is going to make the water extra cold for the baptism I'm doing in the lake this Sunday

I would die for Jimothy

I'm so grateful for morning snuggles. Also I'm so proud of Gigi bc she was VERY brave. I didn't want to talk about it but the area of Michigan where I live is currently running wild with black bears and I've seen both a fox and a coyote from my window. Sweet Gigi was so brave! Now she is resting. 😭❤️

If you are in Charlevoix, Michigan: this is my cat Gigi who is missing. I live close to the Rainbow Shoppe. If you see her, please message me or reply. ❤️ The love from everyone has been incomprehensible. Thank you. Your stories of finding your cats after similar circumstances is helping me. ❤️

As a Southerner now spending half her time in Michigan, waking up to a really crispy cool morning (especially in June) gives me an immediate feeling of joy

Well it appears my local library has unlocked something in me, if they ever do a partnership with our local Pizza Hut I will become the most well-read person you know

Baby's first Special Marine Warning 🌊

Do you think the Pope had to proof this in Canva

I had such a lovely time tonight at the Charlevoix Public Library listening to Miles Harvey, author of The King of Confidence: A Tale of Utopian Dreamers, Frontier Schemers, True Believers, False Prophets, and the Murder of an American Monarch!

Apparently I cannot know a moment of peace

The cats are like, wow so a group of people stole all our belongings today, people you were quite chatty with I noticed, and I guess you're just gonna watch Survivor and eat some PF Chang's about it? Unbelievable

Here's a drawer of cats for your troubles

The movers show up tomorrow so it's extremely packing crunch time and the vibe today is very much "task that requires zero cats"

It has been an interesting day for me on Threads

I'm moving out of a studio apartment & today I got boxes & packing paper, well bc the apartment is so small there's nowhere to put the boxes & packing paper that is away from the cats, which means I'll be listening to cats play with boxes & paper for the next few nights while I try to sleep

Alleluia! Christ is risen! The Lord is risen indeed! Alleluia! What a joy to be with my Christ Church-Charlevoix family for our first Holy Week together. It has been a beautiful & special week full of thin spaces. I'm so grateful for the love of God & Christ Church! Happy Easter, y'all! ❤️

I love that the Book of Common Prayer includes a prayer for those who travel through outer space 💖⚓

Picking up a pizza after driving from Nashville to Michigan, wow what a change in temperature lol

A weighted blanket isn't enough, I need to be crushed by Dorothy's house

TFW the Pope says something so good you gotta put it in your journal 😂

Today we celebrate my sweet baby Gigi's birthday! Her full name is St. Gertrude Kitty, after the patron saint of cats (because she's a queen). I don't know when Gigi was born so we celebrate Gigi on St. Gertrude's feast day! I love her so much! ♥️🎉

This is what Pastor Casey has been working on in his ministry

Me at peak energy level these days

Even when I'm all the way up in Michigan I'm still so far away 😭

I just found out neck fans exist and now I want one connected to my clerical collar

This is Pip btw lol

I AM STRONG, I AM CAPABLE, I AM GROWING IN MY CAPACITY TO DO WINTER

Pip was meowing loudly in the other room and it turns out all he needed was a personal invitation to watch Traitors with me

After living here for the summer I was NOT prepared to see this lake completely frozen over!
