Due to circumstances I have to stay where I am which is temporarily safe. I'm gonna save for a small vanity for my room and a small desk to write at, and work at in the living room. I know I'll have to start saving to move when I get work. I can be comfy now tho.

I need a place to work where I wont be hunched over.

I love you. I'm so proud of you.

Happy preMonday beasties.

Today is a day I like to use to reflect and plan for my week ahead. I hope that you can all take a moment to do that today as well.

As always you are loved, you are needed, your valued, you are wanted, you are important.
I love you

Hey.
I'm still recovering from surgery but I'm doing much better.

I'm just in a lot of pain thanks to chronic illnesses.

Would anyone be willing to donate $40 to buy my kid a Christmas gift?

If you need anything edited or want to commission a story or book cover I'm down to work for it. TY

Hello all,

I got locked out of my GoFundMe. I finally had time and energy tonight to tackle that.

They think I'm a scammer. Which is like shitty but whatever. Also circumstances changed and I can no longer leave the USA, so my goal is to find housing here.

Also, I don’t have an answer for how to fix this. I imagine it’s a lot of little changes we have to make that add up slightly larger changes.

And we need to start saying β€œno thank you” to other people and start saying β€œyes please!” to ourselves

If there’s one lesson I’ve learned from years of mental health struggles it’s this:

Burnout is real and most of us don’t have the tools to process and address it. Most of us just do not know how to care for our bodies, brains, and spirit. We don’t nurture ourselves because we don’t know how.

My surgery went well. I'm on day 3 of recovery. 

I still have openings in my editing and beta reading calendar. 

The world is depressing. I'm trying to figure out how to survive and keep a roof and food on the table. My kiddo doesn't deserve going without. 

I should be writing but so much huge emotional shit has happened in the week leading up to my surgery that I'm just a ball of tears. I don't have much hope atm. Yet somehow, I persist.

It was too long and I'm processing and healing and too tired to shorten it.

As it gets colder, please remember to NEVERRR plug a space heater into a power strip, which are not designed to handle the high current flow and can overheat or even catch fire! Directly into the wall outlet ONLY!

Surgery in the morning. Doing housework I haven't been able to get done due to helping my daughter pack and move.

I'm wiped out.

Thing 3 has been alright, one kid is sure easier than three. Lol. Wild.

I'm already tired but I'm gonna keep working at the housework until it's done.
