My therapist said that my cPTSD makes it so that I have a hard time telling my body that I am actually safe so it almost always lives in this constant state of hypervigilance. I am SLOWLY learning how to heal, but it is a long process and people are unforgiving. Nevertheless, I persist.

The least helpful thing you could do is buy me large furniture without consulting me and then expect me to figure out how to move it 45 minutes to my house WHILE I'M FUCKING PLANNING POST-SEASON. Of course nobody will help me figure it out either. Cool.

Not even 5:30pm and I am ready to go to bed. Dishes, working, taking care of all the kids, and grocery shopping. I'm hoping everyone falls asleep fast tonight. Work doesn't end when they are asleep either. Clean up, maybe 30 minutes to myself, then back to sleep for another 5:30am wake up.

I jokingly asked my boss yesterday if I'm scary. He said that I have a confidence that some people might find intimidating but that I shouldn't shrink myself to make others feel comfortable. As much as politics is going crazy, I at least feel like I'm finding myself after a long road in the dark.

Trying to get better at my job and I would like to eventually get a chance to see more MAC Bands when I'm not in my gameday work mode. Seeing how programs operate BTS when you aren't in charge is pretty neat. 😊

Hearing your poor sniffly kiddo say "I love you, Mommy" at 3am after they crawl into bed with you and snuggle close will be something I miss when they all grow up.

I realized something last night while I was working at the game. When I am at work with the band I am able to turn off the neurospicy masking that I always do and just let my weird little heart free. It feels good to let the world see who I am after so long of hiding.

I don't get to see the hours of practice and rehearsal time our students put in, but I get to see the end product and it is a real treat! I am SO EXCITED to help plan a killer post season for these amazing musicians!

Tried to take a nap, kid threw balloons at me the whole time. Then I "wake" up to being buried under emails and signal messages that other people can answer. Judt give me a few days to sweep my brain clean, friends!

Some days I feel very young and energetic and then my body reminds me that I am knocking on 40. I have a gameday tomorrow with an 8pm Kickoff time and I'm planning a mid morning nap so I can make it through! 😂

What is it supposed to mean when your dream is spent trying to talk to people and everyone you talk to ignores you?

Being told and shown thay you matter after feeling like you don't for the longest time is truly life changing. I am starting to feel the chains of people pleasing falling away.

I wish I had a personal assistant. I've not stopped moving, answering kids questions, answering/sending emails, answering messages in the fiftylevenmillion chats I am in, going to work, answering those questions, completing tasks for my boss, and getting home to immediately be asked for 10 things.

Celebrate the folks you love, tell them you love them often. Life is short and hard, we should be loving each other through it.

I am manifesting the Snoop Dogg Arizona Bowl for WMU this year. My students would get to meet and perform with Snoop and I heard rumors that he pays for them to travel which would be AMAZING for us! I live my job so much. 🥰

Me: Why am I so grumpy this morning? *remembers that all I ate yesterday were 2 protein bars and 2 shakes because I'm busy on gamedays* Maybe I need an assistant who makes sure I eat 1 hot meal on gameday? 😂
