health log/update 2015
Second pap smear ever today. New doctor is really nice and good at listening, was ready to stop at any time and actually knew what she was doing and had the tiny speculum. No crying or death levels of pain, and we got a good sample, so yay. No one judged me for my weight/gain,…

It's okay
Having tried is still worth something. Don’t let the lack of immediate success get you down. There’s nothing to be ashamed of. Having done, having tried, having made…is valuable in itself.

So the last three weeks have been getting ready for my spouse to leave and then dealing with my spouse being gone, and that was very hard. I don’t like sleeping alone. Anyway. picked up spouse from the airport yesterday and suddenly ALL my energy and focus came rushing back. I realized that I am…

adulting.
So I’m by myself this week, and I’ve been keeping busy. I went to ikea, and today I went downtown and had some coffee and drew and explored a bunch of little places around Pike’s Place. I talked to some people fundraising for Planned Parenthood and gave them my number because they’re hiring. So far…
