I completed my last market in December. Tomorrow is my first day working since then. The thing I decided to do after a 7 month break? I took my kids to the zoo and the library in 95 degree weather and walked thousands of steps. Break shmreak.

Great to know that I can wake up having a major asthma attack coughing and crying for 15 minutes straight before my inhaler kicks in and not a single person in the room flinches. In share this bed with my husband and my two kids and none of them even woke up. 🥲

I’ll be honest, I’ve been to Sonic maybe twice since they took away the half price drinks on the app. I used to go multiple times a week but there’s literally no more reason for me to do that.

Would there be any interest in a platform to sell/advertise non-ai art? Like a For Humans By Humans type of deal. A creative hub that guarantees that no ai was involved in the process of creating what you consume. #antiai #humanartists

Fighting the people in my local news station’s comment section because I’m bored and willing to debate. I wish I could drink so I could take a shot every time I’m called a libtard.

Once, my cats put a freshly dead mouse in the recycling crate. I wasn’t quite sure how to “recycle” that so I just gave it to the snake that lives outside my back door. I hope I did what the cats wanted me to do.

I swear theater is like riding a bike. I’ve been doing sfx makeup for a play for the past week for the first time since having my oldest and it was like coming home. It’s nice to feel the familiar chaos again.

My latest work! This thing is massive compared to my normal pieces. Kids sourced from a 1950s textbook, landscape is all scrapbook paper saved through the years, sun is a painted doily, balloon is foil and real ribbon. Quote from @crabgrasd.bsky.social! #collageart #art #vintage #indieartist

I have to wake up in one hour but I just keep replaying this morning in my head. I’ve worked with animals almost my entire adult life. I’ve seen death in many forms. …this morning I felt so powerless. I was paywalled into hurting my friend.

Wakes up early to go to a plant sale, drank some local coffee with a croissant, cleaned the kitchen up, ran errands, mowed the lawn, and took a shower all before sun down. Oh yeah. I restarted my meds two days ago. 😅

I did a responsible thing today and took the extra step to go to the dump to drop off the cat pee soaked smashed computer that’s been living next to the litter box for a year instead of just putting it in storage because I was tired of looking at it. #newyearnewme

Me discussing which vet to take my 11 year old extremely sick cat to for evaluation and probably euthanasia with my husband when my son calls me into the living room to watch stick figure battles.

I got two brand new teeth today which means I only have 12 more to replace and/or repair until my teeth are fully functioning again. Just got to finish up two root canals before we can move forward. Pro tip: don’t puke every day for 18 months and you won’t have to do this. 🫠

*edit to add that it was pregnancy induced hyperemesis gravidarum that lasted the entirety of both of my pregnancies. I ended up in the hospital several times during both due to malnutrition and dehydration because of it. It was not a choice I made. 🥲
