2020-06-21 Take Back the City Tour: Days 5 – Summer Solstice Shack Simple
Yesterday I was able to break out of the new normal routine to get a nice balance of holding counsel with the frogs and the butterflies and dragonflies at a “shack simple” experience and also have a lovely catch up session with some friends. The shack simple day was coordinated by a friend of mine,…

2020-06-19 Take Back the City Tour: Days 3 and 4 – Wrecking Myself and Checking Myself
All I can say now, folks, is don’t do what I did. This post may seem a touch hypocritical but I think as a whole, it kinda proves what I was saying on Day 2 about Western medicine and how the “quick fix” of taking a pill is not the right answer (or at least…

2020-06-15 Whaaaaaat is WRONG With Me??!!
It’s after midnight so it’s officially the 15th of June. It’s almost 1AM so I’m officially exhausted, frustrated, and dreading tomorrow. It’s no secret that I have a history of having issues with sleep. It’s right there in my list of categories. It’s one of the first things I check on my fitbit when I…

2020-04-21 Second Draft
I just realized when I was posting my words today that I have been mixed up on my dates for several days now. I started typing this morning and had the date as the 19th and of course it’s not. In other news.. A friend of mine made a comment today about life in the…

2020-04-04 Much Needed Relief
Somehow yesterday, even as I was lamenting the shit show my week had been, I knew that relief was on the way. I’m not sure if I had this notion because I knew it was Friday AND my period just had to start or if it was just that after several days of rotten strung…
