Jackie and one of her favorite plants in the yard (hardenbergia or "lilac vine") 🥰

He's a sweet old man and can be very, very funny. 💜

Jackie is disturbed and concerned.

I'm not sharing this to be funny. She is very closely tuned into my feelings and how I'm doing physically.

There's a lot going on right now.

I'm anxious. I'm scared. I'm angry (not at her).

I'm also determined. I will not be silent.

This world hasn't made sense in quite a while, but it feels like each day, there's more to horrific news. 💙

My husband picked all the pomegranates off our tree (the harvest is the first pic) and seeded them and then juiced the seeds. The bowl is arils from only 7 pomegranates! We were able to freeze a lot of juice and froze some arils as well. #gardening #NorCal

#chronicillness #chronicpain
Black text on a white background reads: Before I say yes, I calculate: How long will I stand? Will there be a place to sit? Will I have to walk far? What's the weather like? Is the pain worth it? Will I regret it halfway through? Is it worth the flare that's coming? Will I revive in a day... or a week? Some may say I'm overthinking, but this is the math of chronic illness, and every yes comes with a price only my body can see.

Black text on a pink background reads: This is a quote from a hematologist who understands pain better than most doctors and specialists: "Chronic pain patients hide it so well, you can't go by how they look on the outside. They have to learn how to function with pain, you can't just roll around on the floor all day screaming in agony. Medical personnel in hospitals don't even realize this. A Chronic pain patient can function with a pain level that would incapacitate any other person."

#feminism
White text on a black background that reads: Women are 51% of the population but 60% of the poor and 83% of single parents doing 66% of the work producing 50% of the food but earn just 11% of the pay and own only 20% of the land. In case you wondered why we still need feminism. (Author unknown/@WomenRules)

#democracy #congress #governmentshutdown
Quote credited to margotdurkin: Not that anyone's asking me, but here's how to end government shutdowns forever. Pass legislation that makes a shutdown illegal. Then Congress has to stay in session and keep voting until compromise is reached. After the 10th vote, if no agreement is reached, all congressional party and benefits are stopped until a bill is passed. Also: release the Epstein files. Swear in the Congresswoman. Come back and do your jobs.

Black text on a white background that reads: One dog won't fix all of your problems. But three might. Or they might just cause enough problems you forget all about your old problems. So get four.

I'm struggling. But then there's this sweet girlie snoozing, curled up against my legs, and things seem to be a bit brighter.
Dogs are amazing.

A thread 1/
Grumpy cat meme with white writing that reads: So on a scale of 1-10, can you rate your pain? (Picture of a face of a white and brown cat with blue eyes, appearing grumpy inserted) At this very moment, or today as a whole, or do you mean in a specific area?

Y'know, Life360, you can be a real jerk to someone who's housebound due to #chronicillness. 😏

We both know I haven't left my house this week. It's not necessary to remind me.
