Survival Guide...



My last 24 hours have been so exhausting. 😴 If you've been reading along, here's a minor look into my last 24 hours...

I’m in a full Gastroparesis flare. 🤢😵‍💫🥱 🫠
Which means a few things:
✨
  • I’m going to be extremely tired the next few days.
  • I won’t eat for several days.
  • It’ll be a struggle getting out of bed to do normal activities.
  • Physical pain and discomfort.
  • constant nausea.
  • Headache from lack of sleep, food and electrolytes.
  • There’s more but I’m too tired to go into more detail!
Hopefully this flare doesn’t last as long as the last one (3 weeks) There's a lot more that happens to me physcially, but I am just so tired.

I don't wish this upon anyone! This is tough!

Cookie Era!

  Listen, I’m in my cookie era! Here’s what I did! I made a double batch, scooped them and placed them on parchment paper to keep them separated. Placed them in freezer bags and then froze the second batch. That way I have chemical free cookies ready to take out of the freezer whenever I want and bake fresh! This way I can bake 2 if I want instead of making up a whole batch.

My Manic...

Image
     I have been stressing myself out lately about perfection. I can’t share anything I do unless I know it’s perfect. It’s probably going to give me an ulcer.       I decided today that I didn’t need perfection.      It’s not about that. I mean I’ve always known that but I am so unbelievably hard on myself that I allowed those feelings to creep in and attack my inner peace!        I haven’t felt that manic in about a year! So it was definitely something that I had to take care of right away! I almost forgot that my manic was an emotional response to stress.          I was being unappreciative of my own strengths, too hard on my personal weaknesses and turning a blind eye to my mental state.       I called it quits yesterday and decided to do absolutely nothing all day to let my brain rest and recover from my own abuse. Until inspiration hit and I decided to DOODLE.  ...

Ditch Kitty!

Image
  It’s been awhile since I’ve had an update on my little rescued ditch kitty! Sirius is thriving! he came to me at 1.5 pounds soaking wet and he’s up to 7.5 pounds now! Which is perfectly in line for his age! He’s all up to date on his vaccinations and he doesn’t have to go back for another year! (Unless he needs to!) His personality can only be described as wildly unpredictable and entertaining! His favorite things are wet food, cucumbers and pull tabs from my almond milk and playing nonstop!
