i’ve been feeling kind of under the weather lately, but i committed myself to a lot of plans this weekend and coming week. yesterday, i had breakfast with a friend, hung out in boston for the day walking around, went to a halloween party, took the hour and a half train ride back home… and i was supposed to take the train back to boston this morning to volunteer and gallery-sit at a small, non-profit art gallery. i woke up at 7:30am feeling like my head was gonna explode and knew that i had to stay home. i had a really fun day yesterday and i’m not gonna sit here and regret that, but instead, i’m gonna be proud of myself for listening to my body today (and late last night when i got home) !!!! i have a busy week ahead with much anticipated concerts and new jobs starting, so taking it slow today is for the best <3

Trying to do this more in 2025. But actually listening to if i want to or can physically do what is being asked of me. it’s really hard i won’t lie, especially if you’ve not been allowed to put your needs first but im standing on me this year so going to keep at it.

I have a very strong desire for control over every aspect of my life and I’ve never been able to roll with things. Lately I’m trying to let go of this so I can participate in my ‘friendships’, which I have really been neglecting in recent years. Today a friend texted and asked me to go to the farmers market with her. At first I felt scared (lol) and inclined to ignore the message but I decided instead I would agree to go, and within 5 minutes I was in her car with her. It was a total blur and I was anxious out of my mind but I felt very grateful to spend time with someone I love. I’m terrible at conversing but even just to stand beside her was nice. We hugged before parting ways. I am glad that I did this.

i'm going thru a little bit of a time....so i'm having to be especially selective with what i say yes and no to.
i truly love my work, but i am limited in my faculties right now and have had to turn down a few gig offers. it's really difficult to say no to things, especially for me when money is involved, but it's also the most important thing to do for my health at the moment.
im also saying yes, to seeing my friends, to catching up over lunch, to a facetime hang, to making a nice meal for myself. taking lots of care and asking for support is a new muscle im learning to build up.
