  • EMDR

    EMDR

    So Sayeth the Google: EMDR, or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, is a psychotherapy treatment that helps people heal from trauma and other distressing life experiences. It’s based on the idea that the mind can naturally heal from psychological trauma in a way similar to how the body heals from physical wounds. EMDR therapy involves eight phases, including…

  • Stars & Planets

    Stars & Planets

    Went on morning “Walkies” with The Boyfriend. It’s just now 5am, but the weather was perfect. Caught a nice picture of the moon, starts, and I’m assuming a couple very bright planets. I don’t know much astronomy, but The BF said one is probably Jupiter. He’s a nerd (and I like that). Yesterday evening wasn’t…

  • Monday Mark – 1.5 & 2.0

    Monday Mark – 1.5 & 2.0

    1.5 – For Last Week’s MM: I have to admit that it was extremely rough with my physical issues and I hadn’t put much thought into what I would consume less of… other than dairy or vaping?! I did have to consume more water, fiber, and MiraLax. As for external entertainment, sad music… by default,…

  • Love/Hate

    Love/Hate

    Thank you TonysBologna: “How to Write More” – for inspiring me to get off my ass and just write. I was legitimately on my ass on the couch scrolling on my phone… and ya called me out (damnit 😝)! Also, visit the site where I got the featured picture from, because holy shit that’s some…

  • Walkies?!

    Walkies?!

    Soooo… I went with The Boyfriend on his “run” this morning (it was so early!). We walked the block-ish to the neighborhood park (is smol) and I rested on the first bench while he started his regimen. I did eventually get up and walk the track to the next bench, waiting for him to finish.…

  • Painful Sleep

    Painful Sleep

    This bout with the meds and shit really screwed things up for me. Not shocking, it DOES happen, but fuck me is it frustrating. I hate it. Trying to find medicine to help me with pain (or “happiness”) is like finding needle in a haystack. And? Even if it works, the side effects are unbearable…

  • Bleh

    Bleh

    I’ve had a rough go these past few days. Today, I woke up with a headache, probably from dehydration, and sore from sleep (or lack thereof, really). I’m not really motivated to write, either. I’m exhausted, sore, and just generally not feeling all that great. I’m doing “better” than I have been, which isn’t saying…

  • Meteor Shower

    Meteor Shower

    Star light, star bright, First star I see tonight, I wish I may, I wish I might, Have this wish I wish tonight. When I was little, this was one of my most treasured songs. I wished… quite frequently, tbh, to be rescued from the utter Hell that was my life. The traumatic and toxic abuse…

  • Just One of Those Days

    Just One of Those Days

    I was going to write about the Perseids Meteor Shower that peaks today and tomorrow, at the taint of dawn (just before the ass crack of dawn, mind you). But… I saved the draft for tomorrow. I had trouble getting to sleep last night. Restless legs are a fun new addition to the suffering I…

  • Monday Mark – 1.0

    Monday Mark – 1.0

    I get a weekly subscription email from Mark Manson (<—link to his site) called “Your Next Breakthrough.” I haven’t participated in the prompts, but I would like to. They ARE thought-provoking, after all. And thus, I think I’ll start a weekly “Monday Mark” where I do just that. I’ll copy/paste what the weekly prompt is,…

  • Not Much Today

    Not Much Today

    So I’ve been extra in the fatigue department the last few days. Today is no exception. Physical issues are worse than usual currently. I’ve been trying to blog this morning and just can’t keep my eyes open or concentrate. So, maybe later?

  • That’s Punny

    That’s Punny

    Get it? “Punny” = Funny Pun?! No? Ok, but seriously… I love being able to journal/blog here, expressing all the feels and whatnot. Getting things OUT is my main goal. And theeeeen… there’s the fantasy novel I’ve been trying to write for years. I started off really strong on it, but life, ya know? It’s…
