Back At It, Simply Me, SimplyDrakovi

I didn’t mean to disappear so long this time. It just sort of happened that way.

Life got noisy, the kind that sneaks up without warning. One day you're writing about herbs and tea and tangled thoughts that turn into poems, and the next you're staring out your window wondering how months flew by without a single blog post. Not that I haven’t been living. I’ve just been living more quietly, I guess.

But today felt like the right day to say hello again.

This morning I brewed a mug of orange and hawthorn with blackberry tea, sat outside with Lillie at my feet, and watched the sun break over the rooftops. The desert’s still dry as ever, but the morning air held a weird sort of softness. It felt like it was inviting me to start again. No big declarations, no pressure. Just picking up where I left off.

So that’s what this is. A small reentry.

Nothing huge to report. The garden’s mostly hanging on, though the heat is making everyone cranky. Plants, pets, and people alike. Kila and Miko have decided 3am is the new prime playtime. Hayley’s been reminding me to drink more water and maybe sleep like a normal person for once. And I’ve had poems tapping at the inside of my skull that I keep forgetting to write down.

There’s something nice about starting again without needing to explain everything. I’m still here. Still me. Still doing herbal things, still tangled in art and moments and all the strange beauty in between.

If you’re reading this, thanks for sticking around. Or for finding me again. I’ll be writing more. Little pieces of my days, big thoughts that come from quiet ones, and all the weird, beautiful, messy stuff in between.

Simply me,
