Not being able to skate has me way down. I knew it was important but not how important it was to my mental health. At least I woke up to this beautiful bed potato. #dogsofbluesky #bullies #bedpotato #moveover

Spoons? What spoons?

Went to see an old friend and her new house. Peace was found for a day.

Tumble from skateboard has me down, off skates for a while, was going to try today ( delusional I know) but the fact my whole body is now rebelling not just my knee is thinking I should wait. #sad #skate #injured #toooldskeptwrong

I sprained my knee and am not able to do much unfortunately otherwise that would have been a great idea

The kids are busy, parents don’t gather anymore, hasn’t bothered me in a long time but this weekend has been rough and lonely in my head.
Ah well build a bridge and get over it. Tomorrow is another day of nothing.

I would like to formally invite you to. It’s too much and I don’t give a fuck anymore time. We will begin with obsessing and end with crying and screaming into the void. Welcome all.

S. MacKenzie 🇨🇦🤟 #TeamCanada #ElbowsUp @runningbackwards.bsky.social · 12d

Enjoy some peace

Heater isn’t working so what do you do? Dress in layers and cuddle your doggos up in a blankie. #dogsofbluesky #Bullies #potatos

So every now and again I think to myself I need… fill in the blank… I end up looking for something else and lo and behold find the thing I thought I didn’t have it’s like magic. Strange as hell but I’ll take it. I thank the fae. Helpful wee ones.or maybe it’s the ADHD bahahaha #void #ADHD #magic

Fell while boarding, thankful for @thatgenxwidower.bsky.social for taking good care of me. Along with good friends and kind strangers and hospital staff. Pretty bummed to be laid up especially with good weather still happening here. Poor knee has seen better days..and it was my good knee lol.

What gets me is that there are other people there who kept their mouth shut when they should have stood up to the crazy lady.

Trying to make myself healthier, it’s a battle when you have mental and food issues but I am proud to report I have eaten breakfast twice now in two days and that’s something. Spoons at a 5, full intimidating day ahead. Don’t think there will be time for skating ( but a girl can hope)

Daily Spoon Count 6/10
Pain Level 3/10
National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. A day where too many of my fellow Canadians will carry on as if our ancestors hadn't set in motion a plan to eradicate Indigenous language and culture. Oh Canada, our home on Native land. Be a work in progress today.

Let’s talk friends, some friends are from the beginning.. childhood, some a little older, different stages of our lives, some stay, some go, some weren’t really friends at all and some become family. #Friendship #years #lessons #blessedme
