Uh, Connections - I don’t think that’s how you spell β€œBoogie”, as in β€œ Boogie man”….
Is it??

My current way to occupy my mind - paint by number! Here’s my first finished piece.

WTF?!? Elon Musk reposted this on X before quietly deleting it:

β€œStalin, Mao, and Hitler didn’t murder millions of people. Their public sector employees did.”

I’ve been quiet here and on social media, in survival mode since learning my cancer has metastasized. It’s painful & exhausting to see everyone else just going about their days.

And ya, there are the days where I feel I can beat this, but they are just as exhausting. πŸ˜“

The writing was just not doing it for me. The phrasing and word choices kept bringing me out of the story. Character development was a little flat as well. I liked the plot & the gauntlet scenes, but I won’t be reading the rest of this series.

Write every day for 1 hour. If you miss a writing day add 1 hour to the next. It’s incredible! Tomorrow I’m writing for 7 years.

Jasmine Crockett, after accusing colleagues of castrating their Constitutional duty, said, β€œMy job is to make sure we don’t have any kings or queens in this country, but it seems like you all have decided it’s going to be Mr. King and his queen. And y’all can pick which one is which.”

Having cancer has taught me how to live in the present (or at least attempt to!)

As someone who LOVES to plan out my life for months and years in advance…I can’t do that any more.

Waiting for test results, appointments, etc - I am learning to live day by day, even minute by minute some days.

No guilt here - I give it some time but if I’m half way in and hating it - it’s done.
