It took me 4 years to get my chronic pain under control and next on my list is my fatigue and brain fog.


I am so happy to say that I’ve already reached this goal. Turns out I had an atlas subluxation. I think I’ve always had it but it got much worse from fainting and hitting my head 5 years ago. Now that I stretch my neck every day my brain fog and fatigue have gone away. This has also really helped my multiple chemical sensitivities, memory issues, executive dysfunction and toe walking. I find myself walking heel first for the first time in my life. I’ve been obsessed with researching health stuff for years trying to sort myself out. So now I need new goals and a new special interest.

Do you busk?

I wish I could. I can't play either the guitar or the ukelele.

i wish i could also, as i need the money NOW. i play both at kindergarten level, obviously i lack any real music talent save for perfect pitch which enables me to hear off-key musicians in exquisite acuteness. i need to do much MUCH better if i hope to not have people throw rocks at me.

To have a job that will allow me to apply my skills at the highest level possible for me, which starts with working on present weaknesses and turning things that I am not doing well now into established routines.

If you have a decent repertoire of songs, and can play them with a modicum of competence, you stand to make a bit of money.

It's not the musicianship that most people in the street respond to---it's the musician.

You would be an interesting character, actually.

I have no hopes, dreams, or wishes. Between the nukes and the environment all I should have is anxiety, fear and dread. But unlike my younger self who would be absolutely paralyzed with anxiety, fear and dread, I'm strangely calm and apathetic.
