- Why do women never tell the woman sitting across from them that their make-up traveled from their eyes to their cheeks?
- I drove too fast tonight, but the highways were empty – and I enjoyed speeding more than I should
- I also sang at the top of my lungs
- In my car
- After midnight
- I cannot sleep after a night like tonight – but only good things happened
- This will be the first post in a week. I am not on a hiatus. I just don’t have anything to say
- Am I happy? No. But I am content. And maybe that is more important
- When I wear new mala beads (received new ones today), my wrist begins tingling, and heat spreads up my arm. It sounds weird, but it is my truth
- I was called a hippie because I want my kids to be conscious people who see nature and their environment with open and critical eyes
- Tonight, I learned that I am allergic to dogs as well. Swollen and itchy eyes. Stuffed nose for no reason. Another thing to add to my list
- My cousin made dinner for me tonight – for the first time ever. And it was delicious.
- I emptied my closet today. I threw many things away. I noticed that I only kept dark clothes.
- I am having a week off work, but I can’t stop thinking about it because many things will be changing soon – like me working 36 hours/week for the next six weeks — paid overtime.
- If I continue to edit and add to my book, it will be more than 300 pages long. #proud
- I voted yesterday. Because we are obliged by law, but also because I believe that every vote matters.
- If you don’t vote, you are not allowed to complain – you didn’t even try to change anything
- I learned that I am a lazy parent. It is a concept. Read about it…
- Whenever I need to introduce myself, it sounds like this: my name is Cathy, I am 36, a mom of three (14,10,8), and I work at a nursery.
- I don’t know why people should like me, apart from the obvious reasons: I am awesome, and I am unique
- Sometimes, I am a narcissist
- I gave someone a gift wrapped in leftover paper from Christmas
- On IG, someone read my poems (more than once) during a Livestream
- I want to read my poems too, but my lisp and my accent are holding me back – I have a good voice though, sensual
- Too many women are pregnant right now
- I want a baby too! That is only half-true. I am very glad I am not having another baby.
- My kids allow me a lot of freedom
- I treated myself to a new tank top today. The price tag came with the following quote: “Whatever it is you’re seeking won’t come in the form you’re expecting.” ― Haruki Marukami.
- My mind is full
- My mind is empty
- And for everyone who wondered, all is well
- I made the beds and shaved my legs… Most days, I lack the energy to do that.
- My curiosity got the best of me, and now I am watching Dynasty, and I can’t stop, and there aren’t that many episodes left.
- This post doesn’t make much sense
- It makes a lot of sense
- I am still here, still creating, still inspired by you
- Hugs make everything better (but unfortunately, I don’t like to be touched – I don’t like the feeling)
- The last song I listened to Otis Redding – that’s how strong my love is
- The last person, I messaged: Robert
- Where am I? In my bed.
- Goodnight and thank you for diving into my mundane thoughts with me tonight.
- 39
- There is an owl near by. It is very loud.
- 1:06 am
- Be kind. Be grateful. 💜
