My wife coined a new word to use when I am stressed out by a tense situation that is my own dang fault.
It's "kurt-fluffle" and I think it's perfect.

I'm writing up inspection reports and my befuddled brain keeps writing "steal beems" instead of "steel beams"
spell check will hopefully be kind to me.
Anatomy of a comfort hug
A snug hug that supports the back of the neck brings the comfort that we felt when cradled in our mothers arm. It is a grief cutter delivering oxytocins which soothed us as babies.
Combined with the soft sounds of cooing completes the brains journey back to a safe space for the mind and heart.
Consider yourself hugged๐
We have acquired a Greylag Goose (anser anser). The rest of the flock headed back to Iceland, but this one stayed. My neighbor posits that it had a mild brush with bird flu and was rejected by the flock. Now it doesn't know where to go.
It's alert, has a good appetite, can fly when it chooses, and is fearless of sheep and people - it follows me up and down the fence line. I guess it'll just be hanging out with us for a bit. Also, no band visible.
Today is National Jelly Bean Day!!!!
