14° (-10° c) and the propane went out. Even with 4 dogs it's a bit cold... like sitting in the freezer.
My duvet is warm though.

Writing is one of the few things I just do and don't have to negotiate with myself to get done. Everything else in life is, apparently, optional. 🤷

Task paralysis... always heard it associated with adhd. But I don't have adhd and I do have task paralysis...then I learned it can be due to anxiety or burnout and the light switched on.
I've been burned out for years now...to the point going to work makes me cry. But what's my alternative?

I tell you I'm hungry
You bring me
Bacon or nachos dripping with cheese
Mention my feet hurt
You heat some water
Come home crying
You hand me
A mojito and help
Me curse the world
But what if I told you
I wanted to #obfuscate
In the woods of Maine
For the rest
Of my life
What then
My love
I tell you I'm hungry
You bring me
Bacon or nachos dripping with cheese
Mention my feet hurt
You heat some water
Come home crying
You hand me
A mojito and help
Me curse the world
But what if I told you
I wanted to #obfuscate
In the woods of Maine
For the rest
Of my life
What then
My love

an obfuscation
a thorn in the mind
vines played
with those hedonic hotspots
while the neuroids
fired their dopamine guns
but this boy
had too much water
on the brain
got frizzled
feeling
the intense pleasure
of his neighbor's
jittery portable dust eater

Working local tomorrow...let's see how this goes. Fingers crossed 🤞 I've grown to loathe the commute and my company refuses to even try to pick up clients near me. If you ever wonder why good caregivers are hard to find, it's because the companies that hire them don't care about them.

Patient detect
I lack the ability
To #detect
Unspoken
Communication
But instead
Of others
Acknowledging
And trying
To help
I am the one
Who must be
#patient and calm
Would you ask
A blind man
To read
Your book
Or a woman
Wout legs
To run
Your marathon?
Then why
Expect it
From me?

The dark underbelly of this place has been showing off lately... doing a lot of blocking.
Also, my phone is obsessed with memories from 6 yrs ago. There isn't much about that time I want to remember so shut up ...
Thank you. You may continue scrolling now. Have a beautiful day 🌞

How you used
To make me shiver
Promise made
But n’er delivered
Whispered things
That made me #quiver
Til I begged
For just a sliver
Proffered love
You n’er considered
‘Fore you sold me
Down the river
My mama warned
Of Jezebels
But never heard
O’er wedding bells

Writers raise your hand for the number of times you've been offered a Mediterranean cruise as part of your book tour promoting your debut novel...
...how about all of you who can afford to hire a full time assistant
...or maybe just those that can quit their day job...
