:lol:

But my cousin Trevor Turnip was so looking forward to moving in with you at Christmas. Would you leave him out in a cold frozen field over winter?

Before going into surgery, my mother's last words to me were:

"You need to make a fire escape plan with your pets so you'll all know where to meet outside."

I'm scheduling a meeting with my cats and dog ASAP.

Is she doing ok? I hope the surgery went well. (Hugs)

She stayed overnight and might go home by Monday.
The shin one looks gruesome like a big shark bite the size of my hand.
They removed muscle and she probably has some nerve damage.
It needed reconstruction by a plastic surgeon.
She needs wound care and physio for walking.
The one on her back took 20 sutures.
Otherwise they think they got it all but who knows.
That's what they said after her scalp surgery in 2020.

She's a trooper.
Only 98 lbs soaking wet.
It's hard to believe they got that deep in her tiny shin.
She also went bald from the radiation on her head in 2020.

More PSA:
Everyone should have a thorough dermatology appt once a year.
Neither of her spots were present when she was in hospital for six weeks in the summer.
They were checking her skin all the time.
They showed up in August after she went home.
It's crazy how fast cancer spreads.

That is pretty scary how fast it spread. I hope you're doing ok. It's a lot to deal with.
Thank you for the advice. :)

The plant-based "cheese" and "cream cheese" that I got tastes OK, I think. I can't eat dairy so I'm trying to find alternatives.

One would think with all the advancements which are being made on a consistent basis, that there would not be people, who believe that autism and its variants are not caused from some mythical deity- Satan. Seriously.

Quote says thousand failures, repetition and try again.

What it does not say is how to know what went wrong in the first place, what did right after an attempt, and if said failure may or may not be a dead end or a path to pursue, or if failing may mean actual danger and not a perceived one?
After all, attempting the same things and expecting different results is insanity.

Quote says to ignore nay sayers.

What it does not say is how not to be reactive, how to filther said nay sayers, how to regulate one's emotions, how to reprise, how to rise your level of consciousness.

Quote says to be positive.

What it does not say is how to not be in denial, how to not make it feel inauthentic and fake, how to not be positively toxic, how to not ignore reality.

Quote says it's the action and impact, not the intent.

What it does not say it's never about being a good person but it's about reliable and how to do so, that it's not about caring and it's just basically executive function, balance and management -- anything beyond what deems a person's "character" or "morality".


So many unspoken sh*t, that no wonder why I kept questioning every advice, every method, every other thing.

Figure it out?? Then I'll look for a change. But what if that change is to leave?

Then gets judged as a coward or some fleeing coping mechanism, not as removal from unhealthy environment and people, not as a way to be away from ineffective people, not as a form of second opinion.

And those who cannot even leave? Suck it up and cope it? Rot to decay? Doesn't matter in the end. I won't be surprised if a person ends up destroying themselves in the process of NOT being able to change and have an actual choice.


Then told me not to overthink? Fine.

If people don't want the "slow" overthinker, they'll get the impulsive "hasty" doer.

I'd like to live in an art studio of my own. The apartment life is really not for me. I want to pod out and roll out to the countryside a little and have a studio there.
