2020-07-10 — Needles & Drugs and… Tough Answers
Hey, y'all, So... as planned, I stayed home today because of the poison ivy mess all over my body. It was getting really bad, worse by the hour, perhaps the worst case I've ever had (which is saying a lot). Fortunately, not too long after my eye started swelling up, my mom suggested I go … Continue reading 2020-07-10 — Needles & Drugs and… Tough Answers
2020-07-09 — The Steady Onward March
Ugh. I realized yesterday that I trailed off before explaining what happened. And I had better get to it pretty quickly tonight because, well, I just loaded up on benedryl, and at the advice of one of my sisters, added some ibuprofin to the mix as well, so it's only a matter of time before … Continue reading 2020-07-09 — The Steady Onward March

Howdy, my wonderful peopleses. Happy 2:30 a.m. (just turned 😊) Fair warning... I'm all drugged up on some benadryl wannabe right now (I'll get to that later), so I'm falling asleep every maybe 10-20 seconds or so (not exaggerating). In fact, I'm so tired right now that I think I've spent 20 (not joking) minutes … Continue reading 2020-07-08 — Pretty in Pink

Hey, everybody, I'm... having trouble writing tonight 🙁. I struggled to choose a title. I've struggled as I'm trying to write this. I'm okay right now, but my good friend is not, and I'm concerned. We seem to swap places, back and forth, as we go through this together: One of us is having a … Continue reading 2020-07-07 — Concerned

2020-07-04 — Broken
Hey, everyone, To be honest, I can't function right now. This experience with my old friend has been an emotional roller coaster that has been both healing and has torn me apart. Currently, I'm experiencing more of the latter, and I fear that such is where I'm going to stay. I'm struggling a lot right … Continue reading 2020-07-04 — Broken
