PNW mom. Sometimes artist, former theatre nerd, avid reader, writer of things no one else sees.
Rewatching a sci-fi series called Cotinuum. Little more on the nose now than I’d like.

On of the things I’m continually surprised by is the amount of rage I have stored up. It’s a constant low level hum in the back of my head. Because you can’t be angry, no one likes an angry girl.

Ahh, so many fresh horrors every day. What fun.

Welp. I have deactivated my two Twitter accounts. Please don’t know what this matters to the larger world, but there it is.

Began this morning taking the husband to the courthouse downtown for jury duty. 7:30am arrival time. I have again confirmed I not a morning person.

Social media break (mostly) over here. Do I miss it overall? No. Do I miss people? Yes.

Social media was awesome for finding connection back when I first started I sing it. Now I feel the same level of alone when I post as when I just have the thought with no one to tell it to.

Jesus, it’s been a month?! Tells you how it is going over here. In good news we all avoided getting Covid from my mom. So, that’s excellent. The meds for my anxiety seem to working. Also excellent. Busy enough that Husband and I have gone out alone once since August. Less excellent.

I am in dire need of some fun. Cheap, Covid safe fun. Which, now that I type it out, I’m not sure exists.

Alrighty, Covid + mom is incoming. You got things to cross for us, cross ‘em. I have four people (and 2 cats) to keep healthy while she gets better.

If you don’t know what, or where, your psoas is, be ever so grateful.

I have 10 followers on here. Hi 10 friends!! 😂

August was chaos and I’m still tired. September is not currently shaping up to be much better.

Wear your masks and wash you hands folks, we’re going around again.

Want to get people to look at you weird? Tell them you don’t want to celebrate your birthday. Horrified looks and cries of “What?! Why?!”

My brain is so bored it’s like a physical sensation. My body feels like it’s trapped. Nothing I start to do is alleviating this situation.

I…am not a doctor. I’m good with google, sure. But like, I’m not sure I should be picking my own meds. I like to voice concerns, question interactions and side effects, but like listing 3 choices and saying “whatcha want?” feels weird.

Anxiety med try one was a bust. I was not anxious, but I have felt some level of stoned for the last four days. Which is fine every now and again, but not as a constant.
August 21, 2023 at 5:58 PM
May have to ask about halving the daytime dose of this new med. I mean, I’m good, not anxious or anything. But I also feel a little high. So not really helping with the functional bit. I could nap like a champ tho.

Apparently today is going to be about riding out this perimenopausal hormone shit storm that is making me think that I’m basically the Antichrist. But worse. And uglier.

In the wildest weather pattern, the rain from the hurricane headed for DoCal is gonna make a right turn and completely miss PDX/Seattle. Why? Because the smoke from B.C. Is going to blow in.

I just got to open my windows after the heat wave, now we get smoke all weekend.

I have now learned that anxiety is my primary motivating factor, since forever. Meds that reduce my anxiety will require recalibrating some thing in my life. Also we are totally having takeout tonight.

Yesterday I made myself cat ears. Why? It was too hot for much else. And now I have hot pink cat ears.
August 15, 2023 at 9:54 PM
August is the month of chaos. Family trip, mom surgery, kid 2 birthday, psychiatric med appointment, therapy, kid 1 registration, husband colonoscopy. And then *poof* school starts.
August 11, 2023 at 6:42 PM
I should participate here more than every 22days. Busy month.
July 29, 2023 at 2:58 AM
Yesterday I posted there weren’t enough cats here. This morning my whole feed is cats. Awesome.
