I believe in you...

Happy new year, bitches kids. I made it through to 2013. But I don't know how much longer I'm going to stick around until I scoot off to my next big adventure. Things have really been slowing down for me here in the Castro. The 'nip doesn't do much for me anymore, and neither does the allure of the front and back yards, with their squirrels and birds and grass and stuff...

Jim and Jason had a hard weekend figuring it all out, but we talked it through as a family. By chance, they ran into a friend who gave them some sage advice. This shopkeeper appeared like Merlin or a gypsy fortuneteller or some shaman in a weekend matinee rom-com. Go figure. But what he said really resonated with the boys, and it opened their eyes to what I've already known for a while--it'll be time to go soon.

Then he sold 'em a vintage dining table. Photos to follow.

 
I'm spending a lot of time in bed these days...

 
But the boys wander around the weekends, taking walks to find magical places.

 
And then they come home to keep me warm and tell me all about their adventures.

  1. Shadows are falling and I'm running out of breath
    Keep me in your heart for a while
    If I leave you it doesn't mean I love you any less
    Keep me in your heart for a while
    When you get up in the morning and you see that crazy sun
    Keep me in your heart for a while
    There's a train leaving nightly called when all is said and done
    Keep me in your heart for a while
    Sha la la la la la la la la lo
    Keep me in your heart for a while
    Sha la la la la la la la la lo
    Keep me in your heart for a while
    Sometimes when you're doing simple things around the house
    Maybe you'll think of me and smile
    You know I'm tied to you like the buttons on your blouse
    Keep me in your heart for awhile
    Hold me in your thoughts, take me to your dreams
    Touch me as I fall into view
    And when the winter comes keep the fires lit
    And I will be right next to you
    Engine driver's headed North to Pleasant Stream
    Keep me in your heart for a while
    These wheels keep turning but they're running out of steam
    Keep me in your heart for a while
    Sha la la la la la la la la lo
    Keep me in your heart for a while
    Sha la la la la la la la la lo
    Keep me in your heart for a while
    Keep me in your heart for a while
