The hell you mean I have to relearn a whole new house with entirely different functionality just because I moved!? 😆

Turns out, when creepy old guys make nasty comments, they REALLY don't like being called out for sexual harassment. Turns out, it's REALLY fun to call them a "pour pout fish" when they start grumbling about being called out! 😆

Therapist: you need to learn to ask for AND accept help. Me: *asks for and accepts help* So-called help: *abuse* *additional trauma* *lies* *deceit* *manipulation* *literally kicking you when you're down*

Learning how to rest is hard. Learning that I don't have to *earn* rest is hard. Learning to not equate "productive" with my worth/value is hard. I can do hard things, but these are where I'm currently struggling

Cat: *walks with claws out* Also cat: EWW! WHY IS YOUR FABRIC STICKING TO ME? REMOVE IT IMMEDIATELY! ME: *removes caught claws* Cat: DO NOT TOUCH MY BEANS YOU PEASANT! ME: 🤦🏻

I want to make some big changes in my life, but I have so many commitments coming up. *sigh* I guess that helps rein me in a little, and gives me time to really consider my options

I FOUND REDPOP!!!!! I haven't found this in Colorado in the 20 years I've lived here!? Stopped at a random convenience store and there it was!

Why do stress and chaos ALWAYS have to pile up?? I'm tired. I'm drained. *I* don't want to people 😞

Your kids do not owe you shit. If you want a relationship with your kids, you have to give them a reason to want one with you.

Me: *takes a warm bath to try encouraging my body to relax* My body: so you got part of us warm, then left us in the cold!? We're going to start itching and hurting so your bath is more of a nuisance than it is helpful! 😝 Me: FUCK MY LIFE! This body is a problem child! 😭

I just saw this posted elsewhere and felt it so deep. "Heard someone say "accidentally spent all my life making sure everyone else around me feels comfortable, only to realise I never felt comfortable the whole time" and wow I felt that"

Why are kids better at communication than most adults!?!?

Trauma sucks ass. I hate this. It's illogical. It's senseless. It's so fucking hard. I didn't ask for this. I didn't create this. Why do I have to carry it all? 😭

Today was the first day waking up NOT a homeowner, after 18 years and 11.5 months. This feels good! I'm ready for the changes, healing, and adventure!

I'm done. That sucked so many stinky, crusty, dingle berries, but it is done and I don't have to go back in there again

I'm going to cry... ...but not yet, because there's too much to do 🤪

Hire help - they said. It'll save you - they said. Save me money? Absolutely not! Save me stress? Apparently not, but they've added more and they aren't even here yet. Save me time? Uncertain, since they've wasted an hour already. I HATE moving. I farting despise moving 😭

I'm not overwhelmed and on the verge of a panic. I'm not overwhelmed and on the verge of a panic. I'm not overwhelmed and on the verge of a panic. I'm not overwhelmed and on the verge of a panic. I'm not overwhelmed and on the verge of a panic. I'm not overwhelmed and on the verge of a panic. 😉🤪

Today I'm struggling. That's it. That's the entire post.

Now is NOT the time for a complete meltdown. 😭 Especially when I can't cry, because I know if I let myself start, I'm not going to start for a while...

Dear Universe, Can just ONE thing go well? Pretty please with a cherry on top 🥺 Signed, An exhausted 👻

Went to Ren Faire today (yesterday technically, but I haven't gone to bed yet) and ran into several people I know! The best part is befriending a small clump of awesome goblin peeps, only then to have their friend walk up and it be one of your peeps! 😆💙

being allergic to your own sweat is a wild adventure!

I was told this is the Good Place, but I'm definitely the main character in the Bad Place and the demons think it's fucking hilarious to keep fucking with me. Who else is a main character with me? Were we assigned soulmates? Neighbors? Completely secluded?

FUCK 🤬 Thanks for coming to my TEDTalk.

Forever

I HAVE AN OFFER!

Getting a severe thunderstorm warning 5 minutes AFTER closing all my windows and cleaning up the rain that was POURING in was super helpful 🤦🏻

Achievement unlocked, I guess... At age 40, I've experienced my ears "popping" for the very first time. Took 4 days of a terrible, mucus-y bug, and getting a really good nasal flush in, but here we are. 🤷🏻

"sometimes we pick the wrong man, but we always get the right kid". I'm am pretty fucking proud of the spawn I have. He wasn't worth a damn, but his sperm served its purpose, and I (with the support of a vast community) did the rest.

@cuddle-slug.bsky.social Happy birthday!! 🎈🎉🎂

No more leaks in this house!

"Get a mutt" they said. "They don't have any issues" they said. "Hold my beer and watch this" my mutt says. My dog is 1/4 chow chow, 1/8 chihuahua, and the rest is sprinklings of every other dog breed possible. My dog is also too long for everything - including cones - and abusively smart 😰

FUUUUUCK. That's it. That's the post.

Just the most beautiful picture of poop I've ever taken!

Virgin strawberry margaritas, strawberry shortcake, and brats tonight for Mothrr's Day dinner. #nostalgia

“Why doesn’t she defend herself” When she does you call it mutual abuse “Why doesn’t she just leave” Leaving is the most dangerous time in an abusive relationship “Why don’t women choose better men” When we say no you get violent or blame us for male loneliness

Abusers don't stop by choice. So many people go no contact because their abusers will continue to abuse them at every possible opportunity. 😞

Accountability fucking matters! Or at least it fucking should 🤬
