Wipeout

Pizza, gingerbread cookies, cake, carrots, dip, rice crispy treats - and a gin, lemonade, club soda, and lavender syrup cocktail.

I have mixed emotions tonight. I feel known, appreciated, and accepted right now thanks to friends. My best friend's (L) family always tries to make me feel at home and not left out when they have Christmas or birthday celebrations, I don't expect to be involved but they go out of their way for...

Huh! Never knew there was a ministry aimed towards deserters haha, makes sense though. It's a great need - I thank you for your service. And yeah I guess those can give it away if you know it, to be fair though, I've heard it shares a lot of traits for many reasons with the other mainstream...

I am jealous! That's something I look forward to in my next place.

Can tell you know exactly what group I’m talking about lol Yeah, one silver lining is a few of my friends left later so we were able to reconnect. Were you a part of it too or do you know people in it?

I was raised in a strict fundamentalist religion that toed the line of the BITE model. As were my parents. You could argue plenty of evidence to label it as a cult - but it also has an insidiously healthy public evidence to argue the opposite. Something I believe is made purposefully difficult...

Also I remembered on my drive home today that I used to have a cookbook on Italian dishes that I used to read for comfort growing up - dreaming of a day when I might actually be able to try and make them. Haven’t thought about that in a long time, weird I haven’t found it - it should’ve been in...

Happy I can feel myself getting back to the other side of better mood and regulation state. Definitely not close to 100% yet, but I feel like I made it past the x-axis. Trying not to assign myself any expectations of staying here - reminding myself that this will never be a linear growth...

Oh I fight this everyday - I felt I was never good enough for my mom’s affection, which pushed me to try to be a perfect daughter by having the best grades/talents. I thought only then could I make up for my other “inherent flaws” that made me so “hard to love”. Truth is no human is perfect -...

Have you gotten yourself something for your own benefit recently? A treat of some kind, gift to yourself, or solo outing/activity? or did something for yourself that you've been wanting to do for a while? What was it? I'll start - I just ordered two card games to start building my home party...

Wizard

Excited for my new card games, but anxious about my schedule tomorrow.

I feel the 'needing a validation machine' I have done and still do that sometimes - I know it's not great to rely on fully, but in a pinch I feel like its good practice to at least get the words out somewhere. Now you've started a public exploration of your trauma and feelings, no matter how you...

There's been a lot of playing it by ear for me when I decide to share things or not. Sometimes it's been times when a friend has been confiding in me about something substantial to them - and if it has felt 'right' or safe to share something I've had in common then I'll do it then. During...

I should get a tennis ball to exercise my feet after long work days..
