Almost time to head off to work with 2 clients today ๐ท. I have a support worker coming by to help look after Mom while I'm busy at work. My first appointment is at 9am. It's a shorter work day, which I'm grateful for. I'm still low on spoons; drained after working yesterday. I need whatever energy left after work hours to care for my Mom & myself. I'm also grateful that my middle brother has less chronic pain this week, so he has been able to work. I'm enjoying a morn...

Normalize reminding cops & politicians that they are #PublicServants paid by public tax monies. Almost all of those wankerbutternoodles forgot they are actually employed as public SERVANTS.

Mom's having another very bad pain night. I hate feeling powerless to relieve her pain. I'm doing my best. I feel it's not enough. I'm scared about possibly losing my Mom, after losing my Dad 3 years ago. I am struggling with a lot of heavy emotions right now. I'm going to smoke a joint & try to calm my anxieties down. I'm not doing well at the moment.

My friend, @kaosk@mastodon.social helping me with my longterm project to turn my backyard into a suburban food forest. He is scattering alfalfa feed pellets atop contractor paper, wood/leaves from my handsaw tree pruning & we layered some soil over that & then layered straw over it all ๐๐ฉโ๐พ๐

For me, a road to death, that you're aware of, includes having personal dignity & being able to live out your last days/weeks/months/years with as much joy & comfort as possible. I don't believe that terminally ill people deserve lesser than humane, compassionate care. I believe in protecting their fragile conditions, supporting them(and some of their loved ones) on difficult days & helping them to plan their own end of life journey. #DeathDoula #Dignity #Respect #BeHumane #...

"People don't change." That's a lie. I'm definitely not the same person that I was, 10 years ago. I don't even like the same stuff anymore; like pro sports, firearms, and even like different foods than a decade ago. I barely recognize my old self from my current self because of vast inner & outer changes.

One of Asher's birds/squirrels watching spots. It is cute when he sits like this, with his paws bent & resting on the windowsill. #CatsOfMastodon #CaturdayEveryday #CatLovers #CatsOfTheFediverse #CatContent #FediCats

I can host some people again, who need somewhere to tent for up to 2 weeks at a time, starting in September. No longterm stays though. Only short term, emergency or hunting for more permanent housing is OK. We are in South Saanich area & close to all amenities & hospital is nearby too. #BeTheChange #Grassroots #CommunitySupport #HelpTheHomeless #DirectAction #LiveByYourValues #Humanitarians #HelpWhenYouCan #CitizensCreateChange #Homelessness #HelpBeforeJudging

Beach time. On the way out to the beach - We saw a dead deer on side of road in downtown Sooke. Spotted a black bear walking into someone's property near Gordon Beach. Saw otters in the ocean while we had a little picnic. May & Bruno also went to far end of beach & saw a baby seal. @mayintoronto@beige.party @kaosk@mastodon.social

My nephew picked some #beans & a #cucumber. He ended up sleeping over & went home early morning. I'm having some tea & getting some work invoicing done. Meeting up with @kaosk@mastodon.social & @mayintoronto@beige.party around 11am to start our 2 days of Fedi-friends adventures in Victoria & area.

Today is the 10th anniversary of my Samsung Galaxy 10. It's still the phone I'm using, now. I don't get rid of any cellphone if it's still functional & does what I need. I've never had any FOMO when it comes to new phones & think that upgrading to new models is a waste of hard earned money.

I'm holding off buying my HRT medications for osteoporosis & menopause medical issues for August & maybe September too. I can't afford to pay for my HRT & support my Mom through her surgeries & other more serious medical conditions if I get my HRT. My HRT medication is not covered by Pharmacare at all. Sorry for people who aren't Canadian - me & my family shatter your beliefs about healthcare costs in Canada. Too many people who don't live in Canada believe...

I will judge you by the company that you personally choose to keep. Especially if that self chosen social circle has fascist friendly enablers in it. No apologies for being very openly honest about this fact. Guilt by association isn't myth. It's real. I don't tolerate any fascists at my tables. I don't tolerate anyone who enables fascists at my tables either. I don't control anyone on their personal social association choices. I remove myself/remove them from my social sph...

You're probably addicted to gardening if: - you look at almost everything that can hold any soil as a possible planter. - you choose hanging out with your plants over going to a people party - seeing healthy roots gives you great joy - you feel mildly upset when people call soil, dirt - talk to your plants like they're friends & play music for them - hold small funerals for beloved plants that die - apologize to seedlings that are sacrificed to compost during thinning out Just some...
