@LnzyHou Thank you! The swelling I’m dealing with is because I just had my hips replaced. I’m doing too much too soon (I have to). But, I did find a place that has an infrared sauna that will probably help. It’s $50 for 3 sessions. I miss the big bathtub and tankless water heater I had in my townhouse. That thing had healing powers!

@Maleah Thank you! 🥰

My legs are swollen and my hips are sore, but today is the last day to get baking done before tomorrow morning. We deliver the biggest order we can to the grocery store on Bald Head Island. What I will get done today for sure: 4 cakes, 10 pies. The goal is 4 cakes and 20 pies. We’ll see how much I get done.

@SalK 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

@AlphaCentauri This one took me a second 😂😂😂😂😂😂

@Museek One day when it’s published I certainly will, thank you!! In fact, talking about this, and reading Ada’s poem, inspired me today. Thank you. Sometimes I get so wrapped up in my bakery that I forget how important my writing is to me, and good at it I can be. Thank you for this reminder and inspiration. ❤️

It’s time to stop procrastinating for the day. 😬

@Museek She’s brilliant, and a beautiful human. She’s also a lot tougher than she appears! She was one of my MFA professors, and she’s the reason the thesis, and first full collection of poetry (I’m polishing it off now) is what it is. I didn’t want to tell my story in poetry, but she beat me into submission, so to speak 😂 She’s also the one who got me to really dig deep, emotionally, in my writing. I’m SO lucky to have had her as my first MFA professor and I chose her because I love her poetry

@see_the_sus This might help you, classical music helps me focus. It’s like a switch in my brain is flipped when I play classical music.

@Graci @Opusworks I get that.

@Opusworks This is triggering, but true. 🤬🤬🤬 The face of the Elephant should be Tricia Cotham’s. 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
