This early-winter landscape is finally done! I’m so excited about how the “dead” winter grasses look like they’re catching the sunrise light.

Available! DM to purchase. 16” wide by 18” long, on an 18” dowel.

The big daily task for many trauma survivors that goes unacknowledged by others in their sphere is how to realistically manage thoughts & feelings, while coping w/ physical fatigue, pain, & other limitations not even their own health care providers adequately understand or treat.

This whole thread brought me so much hope today.
I've been thinking about the Lord of the Rings discussion from a few weeks back.

"Big, strong men will win the day" is the lesson some people took from it, and I wonder - did they even read it?

The strong have a purpose: to fight against evil. Easy for them, because the evil was apparent.

Last night I tried to do my air-dry wavy-hair routine and failed miserably—too much product/the wrong brush/everything that can go wrong, did, which has basically been the story of my week. I thought I’d wake up to gross stringy hair, but in the ONE kindness from the universe today, my hair is fine!

What’s fun is bringing home a frozen Butter Braid from work (gift from boss), forgetting it in my work bag overnight, then discovering 5 minutes before it’s time to go to the office that the dough has exploded out of the package and glopped onto my laptop, charger, and the inside of my leather bag.

Today is tough. My chronic pain is going nuts but it’s busy season at work with an SAT and an ACT coming up in a few weeks, so I HAVE to go today (at 4 CST).

Who wants to be my cheerleader? I will compensate you in advance with this video of Gwendolen being adorably chatty!

I sat down after my cooking marathon feeling like now I should do some weaving, since I’m feeling better—but NOPE. Creativity is TAPPED OUT for the night. Because cooking is creative too.

Creating-- art, music, food, whatever-- can be such a powerful trauma recovery tool because it requires us to step outside of the roles & expectations of others.

It requires us to go off autopilot & connect w/ our True Self, which is what gets devalued & buried by trauma.

Tonight I’m making my annual pumpkin cream pasta: roasted butternut squash and apples, shredded chicken (I buy pre-cooked and pre-shredded because Ya Girl Is Tired), and onions cooked for a long time and then deglazed with white wine + pumpkin puree + heavy cream + ricotta for the sauce.

This little piece got forgotten under a pile but it turns out I’m almost done with it! A few more details on the cottage—and maybe a tree!

What do y’all think? Tree to the right of the cottage, or leave it empty?

Marjorie is NOT the cuddly one, but she’s intuitive. She knows when I’m not doing well. Right now she’s purring against my stomach, which happens to be hurting a lot. Sweet baby.

I am channeling my current sports misery/anxiety into furiously finishing some in-process weavings because otherwise I will just retreat to my bed and rock in the fetal position

I am winding down early after driving all day, so naturally the cats are just getting started on their evening game of Combative Parkour

Hey so I just found out I need another medical procedure, which is really not what I was hoping for!! I’m still only working part-time while I look for a full-time gig so here I am asking for help once again. Your support over these last few months means the world to me. gofund.me/0ffa6eda

Michael’s yarn aisle: lady near me says “I just like to walk down the rows and touch it all. It’s so soft!”

And I say “OH I KNOW. Try this chenille one. It feels like heaven!”

She strokes it appreciatively and then laughs “I feel like such a pervert. You’re a bad influence.”

Progress on this landscape! Just the mountains and sky left to do.

Every year, I become more enamored with winter grasses—the way the light catches them in the morning, especially. They go from plain beige to glowing peach when the sun hits them. This is another attempt to capture it!

This is the first of my new holiday designs! I’d love to make one for your family in whatever color palette you desire.

This one is 12” wide and about 24” long, on a 15” dowel. $80 + shipping (probably about $15). Prices will be the same/similar, depending on size!

When you have cats nothing scares you anymore. That thumping on your door late at night? Cats! That disembodied yowling coming from behind the drapes? Cats! That shadow slinking up and down the stairs? Cats! Haha! Cats!

What do y’all do before you leave the house for a trip?

I’d LIKE to clean it top to bottom but that won’t happen today, so I’m just cleaning where my cat-sitters will be (bathrooms and kitchen). But I’m putting clean sheets on the bed and…that’s about it 😂

I’m going about my business, feeling neutral-to-decent about my appearance, until the camera at the DMV tells the brutal truth: I am, in fact, a cave troll

I am extremely touched by the help that has come in. ❤️🥹

These last few days of the week are the homestretch as I have rent and vehicle payments so that they don’t get repossessed. I’ve received more from the online church than I have local churches.

Please share this. Much love and gratitude. ❤️
This past May, I closed my private practice as a trauma therapist due to EXTREME burnout.  My body couldn’t hold any more sacred stories of suffering, and it was starting to threaten all aspects of my life, including my sobriety.  1/5

I’ve been praying nonstop for days. Some for my own stuff, some for provision for Jaime (see my quote post from earlier!), some for all the awful stuff happening in the world.

I only started praying regularly early this fall—too triggering before.

Today, God said “Yes!” to three specific prayers.➡️
