1. I love plastic surgery.
2. It’s finals week and I’m in desperate need of a dopamine/adrenaline hit so I downloaded IG again. You know what to do.
3. What did I miss? Love you!

I’m taking the summer off IG because I start school on Tuesday and also I have four children and a fragile nervous system 😂 this is a picture of me after I passed the #Hesi nursing entrance exam (actually I didn’t just pass it I killed it). If you want to say hi or want to come get a massage in my hot tub or want to drink coffee that @dpost makes for us or want to listen to good music & kids bickering or want to hike near water or want to swim at the res text me.

Must be summerrrrrrrrr

Just got a massage, might delete later 😏

“It’s a whole new life!”

It’s 2am
And I just noticed that
The Left
Has gone so far
It’s Right
Now.

How trippy for this
Recovering Evangelical
To witness
The tactics of my youth group pastor
Mirror the woke.

I know you won’t like this.

Both say I can’t enjoy Taylor Swift
Because she is pro-human/gay rights
But also appropriated Beyoncé.

(You know religion created cancel culture right? Since the beginning they’ve been keeping the “other” out and wrong so they don’t have to grapple with the Hard in their own hearts.)

...trippy...
...troubling...

Where do we go?
I believe the kingdom of Heaven
Is here and now.

So yes to all levels of inclusion
Personhood
Visibility
Reform
Obviously.

And don’t you value nuance?
Joy?
Personal freedom?
Haven’t we tired of finding all the faults?

I need to roam between the two now
Because both camps
Appear
Identical (to me)
In their need
To control
And make sense
Of a world
We can never
Master.

They need haircuts so badly. But I keep spending that budget on clothing, maybe some skincare. Who knows anymore. A package arrives daily.

I miss people and lip stick. I miss the time before this time. No not THIS time, the time before TIME. I don’t think we had second amendments there. I’m not sure we were even people, let alone black/white/brown.

I bet there were cats.

We need help so badly. We need help so badly. And not the kind a good brow gel can fix...

Wow. Thank You.

Wow. Thank You.

Here’s a story for you.

It was 70° in Denver today. We hiked the first 3mi trail of the season. They barely whined, one almost got spanked. Another two complained of headaches. I refused to hold hands because “moving your arms is like your motor, it helps you move faster and better.”

And today I passed a very hard math placement exam @arapahoe_cc

Which maybe means nothing to you, but I’m more proud of that grade than I am of my 12-year marriage. I know how to do people and hearts and pain and glory. Math evades me.

Evaded me.

Because today I am one huge step closer to becoming the #nurse I was meant to be. It was the math that held me back fifteen years ago; it was an immovable mountain of shame and confusion and exponents. I didn’t want to kill anyone! Art school it was.

Today the story is New. And Good. The view is so bright at the top in hurts my eyes, how can this be my life? It’s also Hard bc the suture isn’t healing just right and I’m having trouble sleeping, again. And Covid.

But I’m a fucking rockstar.

I think you may be too? Please keep going. Or stop going. Or whatever it is you need to do. Take the Next Loving Step, even if it’s math.

We arrived, wreaking of privilege and depression and triglycerides.

Now we smell like salt, cypress, and oats.

There isn’t a right way to live this kind of life.

There is only

Next

Loving

Steps.

And when stopped walking we found ourselves here.

Smiling again.

I need you all to please turn off the tv.

And stop checking the CDC.

And make a salad or a sunday.

And look at my eyes, at me.

Over here.

You are doing the best you can & have NOT fucked anything up(same @ everyone else).

This is impossible and you are doing it anyway. We are all gonna make it, now with the survival skills of the century.

Goodhardgood. Always.

Inhale. Exhale. Always.

A glass of water. Always. Maybe lemon? Who knows anymore.

The thing that is loving to you is the thing that is loving to All.

🧡
