Whenever schools close for severe/ dangerous weather like today’s extreme heat, there are people who say it’s pathetic, and that they walked to schools and spent days without air conditioning during heat waves and came out just fine.

I was in early high school when things began to creep up, but it got bad in college. For some reason a portion of grad school was fine? And then it got worse than ever after. Then I finally pursued a diagnosis when I learned that there were more to sleep disorders than I originally knew.

This is from last year, when I had some company during my 30 minute wait period following allergen immunotherapy. Someone said it’s a bearded hen turkey which I thought was pretty cool!

Such a beautiful nest! A robin had been nesting as I walked by the other week and I had not realized at first what it was until she flew to a nearby tree.

I love when my Fitbit is proud of me exercising where it thinks I am swimming very short distances but in reality I am doing dishes 🥲.
And then when I do things I would consider exercise, like speed walking for at least 10 minutes, it often does not recognize it if I don’t manually select it 😅.

Why do I get so excited and stuck in the dishwashing supply section of Marshall’s & Home Goods? There are so many options to choose of sponges/ brushes, sponge holders, organizers, etc! So beautiful 😭. #Adulting #YouKnowYou’reAnAdultWhen

Way too many times. I remember being excited when I was hospitalized for acute pancreatitis in 2021 because it was the first time I felt completely heard and cared for by doctors. It provided the fuel I needed to be the driver of my health journey no matter how much doctors dismiss my concerns.
Have you ever felt unheard or dismissed by a doctor?

Since I was 2, I would go to the library so often and my family became really close with the amazing children’s librarians! The storytime, crafts, reading challenges, festivals and then volunteering and tutoring others.

#TransDayOfVisibility is a day of celebration of trans joy for many, but it’s also an extremely hard day for people unable to be visible. It’s also important to aknowledge that it’s nobody else’s place but their own to choose if/ how they share their experiences as a trans person today and any day.

Finished #OnyxStorm and am very confused, but thankfully quick searches online made me realize that my confusion was only partly due to issues keeping track of who’s who and what’s what but mainly it was a collective experience.
