When my cat-allergic grandpa was drafted into the Vietnam War my grandma got a cat (with the agreement that her mother would take it when my grandpa came back). She named the cat Ho Chi Minh.

Well, my grandpa passed away at the end of November, and my grandmother wants to get two kittens.

A secret to happiness is letting every situation be what it is instead of what you want it to be, and then making the best of it.

i just read about what happened to you on that post about nurses and doctors not doing their job right and... ahh I'm crying it's horrible I'm so so so sorry :( i know maybe you don't want this from a stranger but it really hurts to see an person get wronged like that with such horrible results... i sincerely wish you the best

Aww, anon, your kindness is very much appreciated. It'll be 12 years since that happened this coming summer. I was 18 and had just graduated high school. There was a lot I had planned that I never got to do, never got to accomplish. I spent many years of my life angry, resentful, filled with an overwhelming sorrow that I channeled into rage because I didn't have the bandwidth to deal with all those complicated emotions because I was busy learning how to walk over and over and over again. I was surviving, clawing at life with all the stubbornness I could muster. There was a time when I was promised that I would "go back to how it was." But as the years passed, it became increasingly obvious that wouldn't never be the case.

I was very fortunate to have an incredible therapist as well as a surgeon who felt protective of me and thus did everything in his power to fix what had been originally done to me. I worked hard, I learned to let go, to thank the old coping mechanisms for getting me through the true worst of it, and to welcome in new ones in order to move forward. I learned how to live again. Oh and what a messy process that was, but I did it. I needed to or I knew I would not keep going.

I'm going to be 30 years old in April. When I tell you I never ever thought I would make it to that birthday, I need you to believe me. I thought my body would quit on me, and in truth, it almost did multiple times. But I am here. I am living in a beautiful area where it's quiet, and the wind through the trees carries with it the sound of horses and chickens from the farm just across the wash behind my home. There are barn cats who I've befriended and cardinals who nest in the oak tree in my yard. I am creating art for others and for myself; something I thought was robbed from me when I first became disabled because I could not sit to draw or paint. I have good friends who understand and family who love me and support me.

I still struggle. My pain is never-ending. There are times when I get frustrated, of course. But I am happy. I fought very hard to be happy. Life is filled with hope and joy, and there is so much to live for. And damn it all, if I'm not going to make sure I live to see each day because even if I have a bad day, there's always tomorrow. And who knows, maybe tomorrow I get to paint something I really love or eat a new food that will be my new favorite or stumble across a new book or game that I feel like was meant for me.

I hope you have joy in your life too, Anon! We all deserve to have it.

#got kinda sappy #but hey lifes hard #make the best of it

"Okay, here are the rules," said Lu-Tze, walking straight past. "Word one is, you don't call me 'master' and I don't name you after some damn insect. It's not my job to discipline you, it's yours. For it is written: 'I can't be having with that kind of a thing.' Do what I tell you and we'll get along fine. All right?"

"What? You want me as an apprentice?" said Lobsang, running to keep up.

"No, I don't want you as an apprentice, not at my age, but you're going to be so we'd both better make the best of it, okay?"

"And you will teach me everything?"

"I don't know about 'everything.' I mean, I don't know much forensic minerology. But I will teach you all that I know which is useful for you to know, yes."

Terry Pratchett, Thief of Time

Ooooh boy, today, this week, the past few months, the last several years…. It’s not been peak y’all. Not peak at all.

But. BUT. I have listens…. Check it -

This album was everything back in my 20s. The closest friend who in turn ended up introducing me to Chris brought this into my life… let’s just stay today has been a musical journey while it poured rain and ‘tunda’ on middle tennessee… we haven’t had rain in so long, the grass is dying, my flowers despite watering 2 x a day are struggling, my saplings have needed daily drippage, it’s been DRY, also, no matter what the weather channel says, it’s been > 100 for 3 weeks, with ‘feels like’ 110 and higher - so I’m not complaining, I just didn’t go on a hike.

We made cherry turnovers, butterfly art, and owned Minecraft -

We have a burn ban. We have brown foliage. We have humidity of > 70%. Welcome to the dirty, dirty south 🤘

Before I’m interrupted. Here’s the nitty gritty -

I did hit that extra 20, I assume the scale was predicting the future. Before I get neggy here, I just want to add, this has been what it is. I am not negative with myself. I’m not mad. I can’t deny a little disappointed that I gained 20 of the 70 I lost back, it wasn’t the 70 though, and I’m still down to clown. Workouts are non existent aside from some stollen made up mat time of my own for maybe 20 minutes, a mile or 2 walk at work on the days I’m there, sometimes weights, more likely not. I’ve continued 16/8 fasting and have extended to a couple 48 hour fasts and it really does do wonders for my hectic mind. I only push for it if I’m not hungry, and it’s not a FULL fast because I will have my collagen and kombucha. It is just, something I’m trying to maintain and not be detrimental to my mental here and now - it’s not like we don’t have a heap of other bs on our heads.

Mom.

Her ct showed positive movement of her tumors. - I didn’t realize that was plural until recently, so while we are ahead at this point, the war is waging. And I say that not to be over dramatic, it’s just, I have to not be mopped with small wins and no victory, and it’s been a rollercoaster, and I’m swamped with just, grief. It’s grief, sitting with our necks on a chopping block, waiting for it to drop, and no one tells you this. That every visit is an anxiety laden heart attack. That each treatment and lab draw is a potential harbinger, and it’s fucking a Hoover to my soul, it’s an emotional leech on my folks, it’s exhausting. We tally ho of course, and I have this intense guilt for my feelings when it’s happening around me and not TO ME, it’s epically hard though. It’s hard. All of it.

Dad.

He’s hitting the ground running. His treatments for the myeloma have been great. The oncologists have gotten together and they can do Oral hormone therapy for his relapsed prostate cancer, then switch to pills for his multiple myeloma in the coming months as well. Positive on that front.

The summer programs with Jamis have been a hit. He has had a blast playing with cousins, doing ‘science’ and he is thrilled for legos this coming week. Best decision ever - also, not having to deal with the day to day dramedy that is my in-laws feels like we’ve had a damn colonic - the total crap of their instability and inconsistency is GONE, and hubs not having the day in and out with them has boosted his mood so far it’s stratospheric at this point. It’s as if I’m married to another man. His parents baggage was so heavy, not having them insert themselves 20 times a day for diet, questions about shows to watch, bathing suits, sun block, random ‘he doesn’t want to do x’ it’s been a breeze y’all. Easy breezy beautiful cover girl over here with excommunicado in-laws.

My SIL and bro are out the outskirts too as they’ve contracted Covid again, for the third time. Even though it’s apparently not real and a conspiracy. Just made the 4th easier. With the burn ban, we did paper lanterns that burn out in the atmosphere and are biodegradable-

The rest is history. We are all chugging along. Work has been so incredible. My current working with team has been elevated, and turns out I WILL be getting what I previously had; work from home day, procedure day, and position increase to lead NP. So, I followed my gut, and it worked out. Honestly that restored some of my distrust in humanity and Karma. Always a good thing.

Hope you guys are all doing fabulous. Sending you much love and encouragement through the day to day xx

Dear Survivors, You Can Make Pearls <3

As soon as an oyster is born, their shells start to form; proteins and minerals wrap around them and enlarge as the oyster grows. This formation is natural: needed for the protection of any young new to a world of mystery, and the same is true for YOU. However young or old you may have been, you were exposed to a side of the world we thought disappeared, one of the deepest pits of human depravity: SLAVERY. A shell that should have grown gradually under love's watchful eye, now roughens with haste from an existential betrayal so deeply opposed to your personhood, the friendly fire of your own mind makes your hopes and dreams daily casualties of liberation.

But did you know that a pearl forms when an oyster senses a wayward object in its mollusk? The animal senses the irritant and coats it with layers of aragonite and conchiolin...

and these two substances that create its pearl are the SAME materials it used to build its SHELL!

Shells aren't made in a day, anymore than a pearl, and sometimes from fortitude much of the world won't recognize or appreciate. But your capacity for BEAUTY is ELEMENTAL! Scribed even within the gorgeous language of nature itself to create it, to display it, to nurse and cherish it in the nooks of an inner world without a soul to see or covet. Pearls are miracles of your resilience, the Crown Jewels of your survival, convictions of worth NEVER to be cast before swine!

cant tell you how bad it feels to constantly tell other artists to come to tumblr, because its the last good website that isn't fucked up by spoonfeeding algorithms and AI bullshit and isn't based around meaningless likes

just to watch that all fall apart in the last year or so and especially the last two weeks

there's nowhere good to go anymore for artists.

edit - a lot of people are saying the tags are important so actually, you'll look at my tags.

#please dont delete your accounts because of the AI crap. your art deserves more than being lost like that #if you have a good PC please glaze or nightshade it. if you dont or it doesnt work with your style (like mine) please start watermarking #use a plain-ish font. make it your username. if people can't google what your watermark says and find ur account its not a good watermark #it needs to be central in the image - NOT on the canvas edges - and put it in multiple places if you are compelled #please dont stop posting your art because of this shit. we just have to hope regulations will come slamming down on these shitheads#in the next year or two and you want to have accounts to come back to. the world Needs real art #if we all leave that just makes more room for these scam artists to fill in with their soulless recycled garbage #improvise adapt overcome. it sucks but it is what it is for the moment. safeguard yourself as best you can without making #years of art from thousands of artists lost media. the digital world and art is too temporary to hastily click a Delete button out of spite
