Anyone else struggling to write right now? Like, I know the concepts, I have an image of how the come together, but I sit down to do the work and I just… can’t?

Tyra, please. No more, babes. ANTM was iconic! But degrading enough to give girls (and gwolz) a deflated sense of worth. Please stick the hot ice cream. 😂

37 today. Still healing. Still here.
Wrote about trauma, faith, therapy, and what it means to finally feel safe in my body.

Sunday after church, someone asked me, “Devans, where is Nora?” (The main character in my children’s book)

“She’s baking!” I smiled.

That brought joy to my soul - that someone off-line, in real life, was excited about Nora. Can’t wait to share her with you all.

A Reddit user identifies the boy who took a Grammy from Bad Bunny in the halftime show as five-year-old model Lincoln Fox and says that he was meant to represent Bad Bunny as a child www.instagram.com/the_lincfox/... www.reddit.com/user/BabySea...

A quick update from the bakery: The illustrations are nearly done, the cover is on the way, and Nora is getting ready to enter the world. 🍪

Thank you for waiting with me.
The bell will ring soon.

Maybe I shouldn’t take it personal but actually I do. I’ve been in this class for four weeks and I haven’t heard anything from her. I guess that’s what you call asynchronous learning.

I find it really annoying that my professor and my 400 level class is actually not reading any of our discussion posts. Nor is she responding.

Yup

Anyway, I’m gonna get back to my scholarly readings for this week. Unit 4 Anxiety disorders. As I literally have a freaking anxiety attack including somatic symptoms. Thanks, Job. Thanks, “kind” folks. 🙏🏾
