Me and Muse made jams and jellies and scones today!
It was very productive. We have so many jars! But experience has shown me that I have a sweet tooth and it will only last us 6-8 months. But that's alright! It's nice living here. I don't feel so on edge and I am able to get restful sleep. I even sent Mr Feathery butt-nugget into the pocket space when I slept! It's so weird. IT'S SO WEIRD. I haven't felt this calm since I was last with Master Sniffles. When they were around I knew I was protected and here, in this home, I am safe and warm and dry and fed. It's nice here. I want to stay... I know I will need to eventually leave, as all people do as we grow long in tooth. But right now I am content and happy.
And I stopped dreaming about my death! My dreams have been either nonsensical (the endless stacking of paper and boxes) or whimsical instead of nightmarish. I feel a break through coming through. Next month, I'm sure, I'll be able to access the higher spells. It's harder to 'level' without Master Sniffles but they really were a good teacher and in hindsight, I think I'm finally understanding their lessons. I always felt inadequate due to me not having a proper schooling but I'm realizing now the education I have is the knowledge I'll directly need. It makes me wonder how far ahead Sniffles planned....
I am so thankful for them... and wish they'd visit but I know their busy. I don't remember my parents faces anymore... but I remember Sniffles. I hope I make them and my parents proud... Just hold on a little longer Verdant... You're big sister will come for you and free you from their grasp!
