@ShellsPemBroke Thoughtful always. I’m always blown away by the gifts I get from people- never boring and they are always a mirror of who I am and that makes me feel so loved.
@mammachefjozi I’m getting there - it’s up and down but apparently takes a while to get the sepsis under control and make sure there’s no permanent damage.
I went into septic shock today, and a thing I learned about myself is that I spend so much time letting people tell me I’m too much that I ignore real scary shit that could actually kill me because I don’t want to be “overdramatic”. I’m not entirely out of the woods, but I’m ok
enough to be mad. I didn’t take this seriously when I should have because I was downplaying it to certain people I have to deal with because they are so critical of me. Anyway, lots of drugs and tests ahead and I miss my dog & I hate hospitals.
@Nicolamonsma Tried to ignore my body a bit too long - eventually it fought back. In hospital now for a few days while they try to reverse the sepsis. I should be ok though ❤️
@dillylibrarian No, it was really quick. I was sick and trying to hide it from certain people because I had been sick a few weeks ago & some comments were made. I began to think I WAS imagining things honestly, until I collapsed.
I was also asked for my ID at the bar tonight. The guy wouldn’t believe I was over 40. At first I was going to make a “you wanna see if I qualify for a senior’s discount” joke, but no. He really thought I was under 23.
I went on a first date 2night.
It was possibly the most bizarre one I’ve experienced. Which is saying a LOT.
Adding to the WTAF-ness of it all, ANOTHER GUY approached me outside the bar & asked me for my number because apparently I’m very beautiful. I mean, I’ll take it.
I’ve been making a flower crown for a Day of the Dead party. I put the final touches on it and decided to try it on, but the glue hadn’t dried yet and I glued it to my hair and this is why I shouldn’t be left unsupervised.
