Painfully right

As the world took another terrible lurch into the dark I spent today finding a way to help someone I love. The world needs more love. 
Some of it is undoubtedly going to cause me upset, open some old wounds, trigger responses I've spent a long time learning to avoid, but also, it will make someone I love happy, maybe help them take some steps back to loving life again. It's the right thing to do, and I know I've got strong shoulders. If the tables were turned I'd hope they'd do it for me.

In other news, just as I was starting to get very jittery about 2025 funding we've secured some additional funds that I'd effectively written off our chances for. Not enough (is it ever) but just the boost I needed psychologically.
