Hello, Monday.
It’s been a busy weekend on my end, with the first (and hopefully not last) day on the lake, dinners with friends and out of town guests to keep me occupied and my soul fed (not to mention my belly). My birthday and the cakes that came with it have come and gone (though I have one more ice cream celebration today, though ice cream and summer should be constantly celebrated) and life has resumed as it does after a quick mental respite. Something we all need in these dark and heavy times.
Words to share are below. Enjoy your week!

Let’s not give ignorance an audience– it’s had one for quite too long.
