D…. Donkey Kong?

Full blown anxiety has set in for this moving process.

I just have to keep telling myself it’ll be okay, and that things will be fine.

Thank god for bulk pickup day.
1 couch, 1 chaise, 1 mattress w/boxspring, several pieces of scrapped wood, 1 broken outdoor umbrella, and 1 busted shelf…. All things I got to clear out of my home and not pay extra to dispose of. 😭

I’ve played several ‘bad’ games, and has just as much fun as an incredibly immersive finely tuned game. All depends on the attitude you bring into it 🫶

Despite the recent frustrations (having to get a new roof, having to get a ‘new’ car, asthma kicking my ass), life has been good. We move forward, we kiss the kitties, and we will be okay.

Should I go home and nap? Or go home and go to bed early?

Also, “what’s in your mouth?” And “how did you get up there? And “are you on crack?!?”

I work for a business where every single job we sell goes through me. And that’s great because I’ll never be bored at work! But also, I am only one person. Have patience with me, or I’ll spit in your coffee.

There’s GOT to be some kind of medical reason that I crave sleep so much. It taking every ounce of self control not to go back to bed…

Lazy Sundays 💙

Mentally/physically exhausted, and now laying awake googling appendicitis symptoms because I’ve been in slight pain all day in my abdomen. I hate it here.

I’ve busted my ass
To get all my work done

Now it’s time to go home
And game a fuck-ton 🫶

How can you not feel bad seeing someone else in pain, or otherwise needing help? If someone falls, my first thought is to run towards them to assist… not to turn away and pretend I didn’t see.

How do you teach someone empathy? Or compassion? It seems like some folks are just hell-bent on only focusing on themselves, and I dont understand it.

Was late to work because I decided to listen to my body and slept in. The amount of shit I’ve gotten done already is W I L D. I’m marking tasks off quicker than I’m being assigned new ones!!

I need to be late more often 😂

Softly breathing
A gentle purr
This little cat
Dreams of murder

Homie it took me so long to read ‘melatonin’ because I kept automatically reading it as ‘melanin’…….. and I couldn’t fathom how having lots of melanin correlated with tiredness. 🤦‍♀️ maybe -I- need a nap.

Also rescued my girl from the trash, and now we have specific bedtimes to snuggle, she has 3 cat trees, and a 29yo momma to order around

It’s sad that I was traumatized in the way that I was, because I could have been a good parent/teacher/child caretaker.

Spent the day with my grandfather, going to see my best friends family with him, and watching him laugh and smile again. Today was a gift. I love that man. (Bonus pics of her old skrunkly #cat sitting on him)

The fact that human beings can be manipulative, conniving, and so unbelievably selfish should be a crime. I’m sure this sounds stupid to most, but I wish we lived in an unselfish society.

I have loved doing the handiwork things around the house on my own, HOWEVER…. Last night I would up a swing of a hammer and missed the nail… cracking into my thumb instead. 😭

My cat wants to shove her whole face into my armpits and lick them. Like, aggressively.

I’m hoping I dont have some kind of armpit cancer, and that my cat is just a little weirdo.

I’m no longer scared of doors slamming shut in dead of night, hearing thumping, or scratching noises… because it’s my cat.

It’s always Turtle absolutely WWE style body-slamming herself into the door to close it, then trying to open it again. 🤦‍♀️

Between meeting with our realtor, packing house, making dinner, loving turtle, working, and trying to get things situated…. I’m a little stressed to the point I’m isolating myself.

But it’s okay!! This too will pass, and then I’ll be online with the squad again <3

I remember this hitting after a cruise we were on, we had gotten off the boat and immediately into a car, drove for a few hours, and stopped at Olive Garden. The way I was white-knuckling that table…………. 🤢

I love sleeping, but I can’t decide what about it is my favorite part. Is it the daydreaming into actual dreaming? Is it the warmth? Is it my weighted blanket, or my cat coming to snuggle?

Yes.

The other day Turtle was very sad that I was leaving for work. She just wanted me to stay on the couch with her, sipping coffee and snuggling. 🥲

You DO dress, look, and talk (from your posts at least), like a girl <3 I hope that helps you feel like a girl too, cause I see her. I see you.

Laying awake in bed (curse you daylight savings) thinking about the old house we had in the country.

Bullfrogs and cicadas, waking up early to fish, crickets bounding away with every step in the grass.. What a beautiful place, and forever a treasure in my memory.
