Good grief - that's one doozy of a mixed message! 😖

Okay, I gotta 'fess up, y'all. I'm having a go of it trying to be the calm, stable adult in the house. Son and I had to start the claim process with our insurance. Well, I learned that his car didn't just wreck; it rolled. Ffs. I've already lost one son. To find out that kiddo #2 was closer to... I don't even want to say it.

Subconscious is telling me how stressed I truly am by way of using dreams. CPTSD is a MFer. Not letting it win today, just for today.

Since The Borg is/are a hive mind collective, unless one is referencing a specific entity within the collective, singular and plural forms are nearly always The Borg.

Not judging, just a nugget of timeless insight...

Just because one can do [thing] does not necessarily mean that one should act upon it.

Yes to blood donations! Fwiw though, after decades of submitting donations and labwork, I still can't watch when the needle gets inserted. Even worse were medical procedures on my late special needs son. Blood draws from his scalp as an infant - necessary, but omg! 😢

I drew blood from others for years before I had blood drawn from me. It’s different. Your logic and reason doest really apply. Its ok, it aint rational. I have no problem with needles, blood, but when I had blood drawn I was freaked the first time.

Just commenting cuz I think we should talk more about giving blood.

To be fair, most CSRs are under time/quota conditions, so, no, they haven't been able to read the ticket. Blame sadistic efficiency experts and ignorant, greedy corporate overlords

I didn't start from the bottom and I'm sure af not going to end here. I'm not going to let people light the world I love on fire and just do nothing.
I don't feel helpless anymore. I feel angry, motivated, inspired. And I'm becoming everything they tried to destroy. I'm becoming happy.

It was a long list, believe it.

Necessity, meet Mother.

Household adjustments are being made to make son's life a little easier. Given that my gentle giant will be wearing a back brace for a few months, even minor bending to lift the toilet lid was a hardship. Lid stays down to protect Diego the Cat from misadventure.

4-ply acrylic worsted (6 sc tube), 2 wood popsicle sticks, duct tape. Voila!

A wise friend said, "I haven't given up on anyone who hadn't already given up on me."

I keep thinking about that.

Gotta love some of these food quirks our pets develop, huh? Especially cats. Back in the '80s my sister and I had a pair of sibling cats. Jazz, her jet black slinky guy, demanded a pinch of unbrewed coffee grounds every morning. His brother, my big, burly tabby, Spice, loved plain, cooked spaghetti noodles. A few years later, I had a tortie calico, Miss Mojo, who had a penchant for stealing Doritos. Crunching noises beneath the couch was how I found that out.

Ooh! There are two pairs of cardinals nesting along the tree line this spring! 🙂
