Holiday Poetry Sale
Today is the last day of the Holiday Poetry Sale. If you've been meaning to buy something, now's the time. The pool with
ng_moonmoth is still open, and there are poems left at $10 or less if you have a low budget. I still have some poetry from Mom and Dad to post.

Poem: "With a Warm and Tender Hand"
This poem is spillover from the August 7, 2018 Poetry Fishbowl. It was inspired by prompts from
dialecticdreamer and
mashfanficchick. It also fills the "holding someone's hand" square in my 6-4-18 Mixed card for the Winteriron Bingo Adventure fest. Special thanks to
we_are_spc for checking the vision-impaired details in this poem. This poem has been sponsored by Anthony & Shirley Barrette. It belongs to the Mercedes thread of the Polychrome Heroics series. It follows "The Friend in My Adversity," so read that first or this won't make much sense.
Warning: This poem contains some intense and controversial topics. Highlight to read the warnings, some of which are spoilers. It includes migraine aftermath, blindfolded navigation, blind guidance (competent and not), reference to distress following the house fire, medical abuse, size discrimination, reference to superpower injury due to foolish behavior, trauma-informed care, messy medical details, negotiating care and information, adaptive equipment, ethnic issues, stress, delicate conversation about kink and medical care, food issues, and other challenges. If these are sensitive issues for you, please consider your tastes and headspace before moving onward.

Joyous Midwinter!
Midwinter or Yule is a Pagan holiday. Happy Yule to everyone celebrating tonight!
My partner Doug and I exchanged gifts after sundown. Mine included a Girl Genius t-shirt, a tie-dyed heart t-shirt with long sleeves, and a carton of fire-coloring sprinkles. I also got my copy of Stronger, Faster, and More Beautiful from
redsixwing. :D Several more items for me have not yet arrived. Doug got several different t-shirts, several decks of cards, a movie, and a book of magic tricks.
The community event will be tomorrow. We're doing the Longest Night celebration. That means we'll be starting with the house cold, so I'm going to make a red-and-green salad, and we'll have the hot food brought in from outside. \o/
