I wrote this in the morning.
It's Mother's Day. All y'all know I lost my Mom in 2010 and life can be hard without her. But in her absence, I'm learning how to handle life and grow into myself.
For those I call Mama Bear, I'm not going to promise the world, but I can promise:
To not let my feelings ride on what other people think of me.
To take everything one day at a time. Because that's how days work: one at a f-cking time.
To remember "there's food at home" isn't so much a vibe killer, but a reminder to be a better steward of my resources.
To remember "all the other kids are going" isn't a good reason for going.
To remember cleaning doesn't have to be hard or difficult, especially if I do a little bit every day.
To remember sleep and good food are the two best cures for anything.
To remember there is almost nothing better than sitting at home with no bra, no makeup, covered in Dorito dust, and a cat on my lap.
To remember it's not all bad. I am alive.
To remember to drink some water.
To remember the only way out is through. I got this.
And to remember asking for help isn't giving up. It's refusing to give up.

Mother's Day is hard on a day like today.
I really miss my Mom and wish she was still with me.

Can you throw out pillows in the trash? I bought new pillows for my mom’s second bedroom where I sleep when I stay with her. She had three My Pillows and they’re just awful. I haven’t brought the old ones to the dumpster yet in case I need to do something else with them.

My cat has claimed my purse, my phone charger, and my keys.
It's like he never wants me to leave.

Getting ready for a trip on Sunday. My dog just saw my carry on and she’s sad. I usually try to hide bags from her because she knows.

April 30th is my sobriety anniversary and I'm spending it in an LGBTQ bar.
And I'm making my drag debut at the same nightclub.

My bowling league had its end of season banquet tonight. I won one of the door prizes - a 1L bottle of Don Q rum. I’m an alcoholic, so… the $25 gift card to Store X would’ve been better.

Yet again, the T-Rex’s plan is foiled by his short arms.

Our city just rolled out a food scrap pickup program. You get special green bags from the city for free and put it in the weekly trash bin where it gets sorted at the garbage facility.
love it.

Dumb question?
