better, please

it’s not a good day. i’m feeling hurt on so many levels. and all i want to eat is peanut butter toast, because the thought of doing more, or eating anything else makes me nauseous. thrift store had some good vibes, but the fix was a temporary one. signing off and hoping for better days …

tcihwm (mostly eating, some reading)

Brainstorming and ice cream on the first day of summer! Found out that the local ice cream shop does half and half, so you can get 1 scoop, 2 flavours and a waffle cone for the best of all worlds! And a good spot to sit, enjoy and people watch. Don’t ask me to walk …

tcihwm (reflections)

the conversations I have with myself. I took the day off today. Hit play on life when everyone else dives for the >> button. Had a nap, cleaned house, read a ton, laughed, ate a kappa roll, thoughts on simmer with LOTR, GA, TIU, poems, acronyms and interactions. Fire, like the one that’s burning brightly, …

tcihwm 1 – tuesday

why so much inequality? why erase the history of a diverse humanity? why not teach boundaries, consent and mental health instead of typing, birth videos and badminton? why does everyone pretend to be ok? don’t tell me I’m broken trying to live in a shattered world; please be real. please be here. please see me.

I’m feeling isolated and so tired of competing and consuming, and doing things for other people, rather than to support my own sense of self and wellbeing. I don’t feel energized entering this environment, instead I want to be home, drinking tea or …

Where the light gets in

I don’t have much to say these days. I’m trying to just stay afloat, and find joy where I can. I’ve made some amazing batches of popcorn, journaled lots, enjoyed some favourite comfort foods (once I get my butt to the grocery store and back home, take a breath and put food on the table). …

Good things (15)

first dose of vaccine for me 🙂 quiet moments are not extinct pantry staples little victories community building Headspace: Cozy plans are good for the soul. Much gratitude for the weekend and quiet study. Full service library = totally happy introvert. In a new adventure, another life, what path would you choose? To exit survival …

best friends, best ideas

I finished work early today (minor miracle) and made my way to the library. It is no longer wrapped in caution tape, so that was nice. Still, some signage suggesting all previously touched materials were to be placed in non-existent bins was a tad confusing. Books really are the best of friends, full of amazing …
