Still on the fence with my new formatting but I'm willing to let it grow on me.

He knows your favorite color.

He remembers the small things.

He gets an hour hr lunch but he makes the 20 minute drive home to eat with you, even though he only has 15 minutes until he has to go back.
He'll probably be late.

If he wanted to, he would.

If he loves you,
He will.

Pain paralysis

I can't move
I can't stretch
I can't stand and take something for it

All I know is the pain
All I can think about is the pain
All I can focus on is the pain

It hurts for now but I'll get through it.

I've been waiting for warmer weather to put anything out. Garrett got me a massive bag of unsalted peanuts but I want to wait until I can get some birds you to go with it so I can feed all the babies.

Mercury retrograde
I would ask you to be lenient

I would ask that you don’t spread chaos

I would ask that you skip my home
We’ve been through enough already

But water can never be dry
Ice can never be hot
Fire can never be cold

The retrograde
can never be calm

I really like that photo. You can see every tiny detail in the wood grain. It's so pretty

I am not an afterthought.
I refuse to let my priorities be neglected.

I am not a doormat.
I refuse to be walked all over.

I am not a wooden block.
I refuse to shave parts of my square down
to fit in a triangle hole.

I refuse.

🧠Get up.

πŸ™πŸ»β€β™€οΈI can't.

🧠You have work to do.

πŸ™πŸ»β€β™€οΈI know.

🧠You don't want to be called lazy do you?

πŸ™πŸ»β€β™€οΈI'm not lazy, I'm in paralysis. There's a difference.

🧠For fuck's sake just get up.

πŸ™πŸ»β€β™€οΈI told you, I'm in paralysis. I can't do that.

🧠What's wrong with you?

πŸ™πŸ»β€β™€οΈ You tell me.

Grief is funny when someone toxic dies.

I knew how hateful they were.

I stayed away, but always observed.

How do you grieve?
How do you shed a tear
for someone so nasty?

Short answer: you don’t.

Grief is love.

If you don’t have love for them, they do not deserve your grief.

I like this one! The snow is a blank page until you tell the story.
Is it a snow angel?
A walk up and down the trail?
A handsome snowman?
Whatever it is will be a fun read indeed.

My eyes see it all
But I chose to stay silent
Silent no longer

I didn't want fights
I wanted to keep the peace
Peaceful no longer

I have a strong voice
I'm going to fucking use it
Fearful no longer

I'm angry, tired
Worried about the future
Spiral no longer

Peace

Snow days,
Bus delays,
No school, time for fun and play.
Hot chocolate and coffee,
Cheesy noodles and soup,
We'll be okay, that's the honest truth.
So come home safe as you travel home
I swear the fuck if you do this again I'll smack you in the dome!
