A late bloomer in life ! Former HR worker, finding it hard to re-enter the workforce (ageism exists!). Making ends meet by teaching meditation and dog training. Also decided to pursue my passion (writing). I have a master's in making my tragedies seem funny. Die-hard #PhiladelphiaEagles fan love #yoga, dancing, Columbo reruns, #jazz, and #blues. Classic #Virgo, and can overthink just about everything.

There are nice ways to wake up in the middle of the night. A leg cramp so bad you shriek as you grab your muscle in agony is not one of them 😩

I have an assistant who is a *clears throat and gags* Dallas Cowboys fan.

She scheduled a client session for 15 minutes before the Eagles game today.

I'm not saying she did that on purpose to mess with me....πŸ€”

Just to be clear. When I was 11, my best friend told me a secret. I kept that secret through junior high, high school, college, and adulthood.

Trump was out of office what, a year or two? And he spilled sensitive US national security information with a Mar-A-Lago member (according to ABC news)

If massive, soul-sucking negative energy had a face, it would be Trump's. He's always been that way, but lately, he has devolved into a black hole level of darkness. There are women who actually find him attractive. 🀒 If he were the last man on Earth, I'd demand a recount.

I think auto-correct likes to stir things up. I really do. I think it has an evil side. Earlier this morning, I went to text 'I want to hug you' and auto-correct jumped in and changed it to 'I want to hit you'. (Not kidding! I couldn't believe it). Fortunately, I caught it before I hit 'send'. I think auto-correct is in cahoots with my car, which still displays 2020 as the current date on the dashboard.

I'm "Sitting on the couch eating chocolate and watching Columbo" kind of stressed. Chocolate and Columbo is my geeky version of doing shots.

And to think all of my life stress could have been avoided had I pursued the goals of my 8-year-old self. I'd be livin' large as Mr. Roarke's sidekick (I'm guessing my 8 yo self had plans for Tattoo 😬 )

Having a discussion about "normal" in society.

"Normal" = conforming to a type, standard, regular pattern. However, the standard is a constantly moving goalpost. Normal 4 years ago isn't normal today, nor will it be normal 5 yrs from now. Normal in the US may not be normal in the UK. Normal in Iowa may not be normal in NJ. Normal in my house may not be normal next door.

So-

1."Normal" in society is a subjective concept.

2. If it's subjective, why do we still give the term so much weight?

May you have all your vaccinations and booster shots, and may your immune system be as strong as the Philadelphia Eagles defensive line.

That ought to cover you. 😊

Well, my "big" client wants me to do a meditation for the staff once a week (it was previously every other week). This is GREAT news. It's high $ clients like this one that make it possible for me to charge on a sliding scale. πŸŽ‰

Good morning β˜•

According to US law, Coco Gauff can be trusted to decide to marry and have kids, vote, work, drive, carry a concealed weapon in her home state of Florida, pay taxes, and win the US Open Women's Championship - but she can't have a beer to celebrate her national championship for another two years.

Take a second and marvel at how weird that is.

I want a roomba that can support the weight of a grown woman. Why should cats have all the fun?

You could root for the Eagles...πŸ˜€

Just kidding. I'll bet your daughter is happy about last night's game. He who eats his mac and cheese with a spoon was still grumbling about it when the roads opened and we were finally able to leave. I get it. I'd do the same if my team suffered such a shellacking.

Good morning to those who may have a rough time on this particular day πŸ’œ

DId I miss my wedding? 🀣 🀣

Mark and I are laughing. We're not there yet 😊

In reality, many situations that overwhelm HSPs may seem β€œsmall” to others but seem β€œbig” to us. Self-care is so important, as is knowing your personal triggers. ❀️

11 β€˜Little’ Things That Overwhelm Highly Sensitive People

Same! I've weaned myself off of it for most of the year but still need it in the Fall/early Winter.

nostr:npub128a33qcm3098ex0m36dkv554ufmrdak8dzwxvf3gw9g80lrcq5yqzhlww3 It's fascinating. Also, and this may be true of other birds, I'm not sure, bald eagles lose feathers symmetrically. They lose one on one side and lose one on the other side in the same place.
