That's so hard, Calli.
Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

I think I put together enough sleep to be able to deal with today's family gathering.

My feet keep swelling up in the short time I have my compression socks off so I can shower. Not sure what to do about that.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I'm sorry, Calli. That's hard. I'm glad you got to see her when you could. Sometimes the singing birds and knowing the cat still needs to be fed is all that keeps us getting up in the morning.
sj, I wish you all the spoons you need today. And waterproof compression socks.

Thanks, y'all. I'm so tired I think I'm starting to smell colors.

Thrive to spite them
I've had a crappy weekend and beginning of the week. Let me back up, since like last Wednesday things have been rocky.
It's the kind of thing that makes me wonder if I'll ever be able to work full time and even why I'm trying.

I was an hour late (putting on shoes and braces by myself has become quite a task), but I made it. And I ended up having a good time once I got over the onerousness of getting there. I even stopped at the Farmer's market on the way home. My cousins' kids are adorable and getting so big!
My mother, however is failing at her task of telling people that I will not take gifts until the baby is born. So, then I have to be the one to say "thank you, and I'd be happy to open this after ltc is born". Honestly, even looking at the pretty packages just makes me nervous, as does talk like "next time I see you you'll have had the baby!". I just want to keep adding "hopefully".

{{{askye}}} I'm so sorry you're having a rough week. Is there anything any of us can do?

Sending you love, askye. It sucks not having answers for life stuff.

Always Anti-fascist!
For fifty bucks, I would be a wiseass and tell this person that talks about Planned Parenthood killing the innocent either Western-style "Some folks need killing." or that my fictional sister had a sonogram and the kid looked at me funny, but I totes don't want to be on Fox News today even with "loofah" in tow.
