Yo-Yo
Lesbian log sixteen-zero-four-twenty-one Emotions are a bitch. Coming from someone who isn’t overly fond of ‘experiencing’ their emotions, preferring to bury them rather than let them bubble up and flow over me, I gotta say, breakups are a very unpleasant business. Some days I think I have my head above water, and other times I …
Gnawing Away
Lesbian log twelve-zero-three-twenty-one Since I didn’t feel like belabouring the perils and challenges of living on my own today, (reverse osmosis system and water softener acting up, dishwasher dead, hot water tank dubiously working) I decided to sit down with my trusty old dictionary and pull a word for today’s post.

Lesbian log twenty-one-zero-two-twenty-one I very much strongly dislike winter. Like. A lot. I try my utmost best in life to never use the word hate because it is a viciously cruel word at the best of times, so this is as vehement as I get. I despise winter.

A Month In
Lesbian log thirteen-zero-two-twenty-one It’s been one month since I officially started my new life. For the first time, ever, I made my way on my own gumption, blood, sweat and tears. I moved into a new home, alone, on my own, arranged my own finances, qualified for my own credit cards and loans (which wasn’t …
You’re Not Pinned Down
Today’s random dictionary point and post is brought to you by the word pin. Pin: 1) a small thin pointed piece of esp. steel wire with a round or flattened head used for holding things in place, attaching one thing to another etc. 2) pin down — to a promise, arrangement etc. 3) force a …
Reset and Recharge
I’ve learned I’m an extroverted introvert. That’s my lesson from social distancing and learning to navigate a new world blending family commitments and responsibilities while still providing comfort and reassurance to those that need me. I can give only so much before I’m just emotionally and physically drained. Working from home provides very little opportunity …
