I'm about, into, growing from, learning from, thriving on, and evolving within SO many unique and incredible things from SO many perspectives, my "politics" are the LEAST interesting thing about me.

In a community of wildly different and epic people who have much to share, teach, and celebrate about themselves, if all you can do is express only what you despise in the world, you're missing a chance to share so much more about yourself and we're missing a chance to delight in your epicness ❤️

I watch this twice a year. cry every time.

"I was searching for a train station. the kind you rarely see. small. countryside. we found it. & by accident, found something else. . i watched her smile at each passenger. then, noticed her wave at the departing one-car train. surprisingly, she continued waving. she waved until there was no trace left of the distant train. no one witnessed her, except me. in that short span, my love and wonder of life was renewed."

"Injustice isn't only felt by the loudest person complaining about it."

- ( Season 1, Episode 3)

Going to take a sleeping pill and see if I can't get knocked out and get some sleep ...

Really kicking myself ... just ... sometimes I'm legit stupid AF ... No excuses just ... disappointed in myself.

It's midnight and I'm awake in horrendous pain ... I overworked myself today and when I looked at the calendar I saw that my delivery is Friday, not tomorrow. I'd misread the date and worked myself into the ground for nothing ... I have absolutely no one to blame but myself. I could have broken up all this labor over 2 days had not misread the numbers. I could have taken it easy had I paid better attention and wasn't so stressed out about what needed to be done that I'd known what day it was.

Thanks everyone for your kindness and support ... I'm officially turning in. I can barely move. I hope I'll be able to lay down comfortably.

It's been cloudy every night since I got my telescope so I haven't been able to use it yet ... hopefully soon. 🤞🏾

Goodnight CoSo ❤️

Everything is ready for tomorrow's delivery. Everything is moved, I found space for stuff I had to move. Everything is rewired and setup. I have a few more things to deal with but it will be easier once the sauna is actually setup to know where these things will get shifted to. I really hope everything goes well with delivery and setup tomorrow. The idea of being able to open a door and walk in ... and just fully relax my body and heal ... I can't tell you how much I'm looking forward to it. ❤️

My computer is moved and running. The rewiring went well. Why is it I always find all these extra cords and I'm like ... were these even plugged into anything? Like WTF 🤣

I have a lot of boxes and storage that can no longer fit where I had them ... I'm unsure of what to do with everything. I am unsure of how much more I can do tonight ... I want to try to push through one more hour of organizing before I give up. I still have cords to tie up etc to prepare the space for tomorrow.

😭

Fascinatingly, I didn't expect to be able to still use the small table I had. But it actually fits nicely in the space and my chair can spin around and actually face it. Not that I'd ever be facing that direction but it's cool that I could use it as a separate workspace if I wanted to.

I'm glad I had the foresight to buy a floor swatch that was representative of the sauna size because now I can really get a feel for how much space will be needed around it as well.

The pain is real tho ...

Still going. Up and down ... crawling around ... getting down, getting up ... I keep telling myself not to cry ... that pain means you're alive and alive is what we want to be matter what. It's just pain. I deal with pain every single day. This is just a temporary flare up on a day where a lot of physical things need to be done. Tears are just an involuntary response. I am good. I am fine. I am going to be fine. Just breathe and focus on getting things done. It's just pain ...

Limited edition "blue" full analog vinyl of ... one of the best films and soundtracks out there. I got this present for my tribemate ❤️ It's a dual record soundtrack.

I'm sitting here dreading getting on the floor and crawling around for the next hour or so ... it hurts ... a lot. I don't have enough spoons. I'm already in a flare but I know I need to get this done. I know that it's in prep for something that is going to help my pain and aid in my pain management. It's not for nothing. It's not a waste of time. I know all that. I'm just ... in pain. Like ... so much right now and there's nothing I can currently do about that and it will worse when I'm done.

As of now it looks like I have plenty of floor space for the sauna.

I will have to completely rewire my desk for the tower to relocate to the front of my desk (pic 2) but there's more than enough room.

The back or side will completely block me in on the left which is fine and actually I kind of like feeling more enclosed in my work space.

Now comes the tedious part ...

Rewiring everything.

I have to be on the floor and that's just really rough on my body.

The first photo is the LEFT side of my desk. I added a table to put some extra stuff on and a space for my cat to sit. The second photo is a few from the back angle. There is a lot of stuff there that I think, if I move, I will have room to place the 32x32 sauna ...

In the last photo I am clearing everything out the way and the last thing I need to move and rewire is my computer (which was under the table). Than I can put my swatch of 32x32 carpet down and see if it fits ...

I cleaned out most of the area where I think it will fit ... again I'm still not 100% certain because I need to move my computer and stuff today as well ...

I ended up having an aquarium emergency yesterday and had to do some cleaning and water changes and all of my spoons were used up during that crisis. I didn't have energy left to finish moving everything.

Another tank issue first thing this morning had @IronButterfly and I working our asses off first thing ... but I need to get this done.

Sauna is coming tomorrow morning. I paid extra to have the delivery guys carry the two boxes it up a flight of stairs. It's about 200lbs collectively.

Normally I will always opt to have us carry up our own stuff ... but I learned my lesson when a delivery truck dropped off our 360lb elliptical at the bottom of the stairs and it took us HOURS to unpack it all and carry it upstairs alone. We broke ourselves and cracked our kitchen tile and our refrigerator door when we lost grip ...

I REPEAT ... especially for men ...

𝙒𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙚 𝙞𝙨 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙬𝙤𝙪𝙣𝙙? 𝙒𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙚 𝙞𝙨 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙛𝙚𝙖𝙧? 𝙒𝙝𝙮 𝙙𝙤 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙅𝘼𝘿𝙀?

Two of my most favorite and often used phrases are and "Not All Men, But ALWAYS A Man"

When these things STOP being true 99.9% of the time ... I'll absolutely consider changing my opinion of them. I'll even be generous and settle for ... 70% of the time ...

And to quote myself from yesterday ... if this thread and topics related to it trigger you and make you angry ask yourself:

𝙒𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙚 𝙞𝙨 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙬𝙤𝙪𝙣𝙙? 𝙒𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙚 𝙞𝙨 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙛𝙚𝙖𝙧? 𝙒𝙝𝙮 𝙙𝙤 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙅𝘼𝘿𝙀?

I have posted this thread on my old blog in case you want to read or refer to it later.
