I just want my loved ones to be safe, kind, and together. There was a children's book I read my daughter once. Instead of the "Happily ever after", it concluded with "And no one was ever lonely again."

Do you remember the name of the book?
I thought about my friend's egg experiment and decided to drop an egg in some salt water. The egg ended up floating in the water (Also, I hate rent).

How to tell if an egg is hard boiled or raw - spin it on the table top. A hard boiled egg will spin like a top, a raw egg will refuse to.

Also it's a good way to tell if an egg is spoiled or not. Does it float in plain water? If yes chuck it. No need for expiration dates!
Any deity out there, please give me the strength to purge my brain and heart of false beliefs force fed to me by my blood throughout my life.
Being a drunken moron is not who I am. Escaping through a bottle is not who I am. Eating junk food and being a slob is not who I am. Damn my family for telling me I am who I am not. I can make my own healthy path without them.

I think you're going to like the sober and healthy path a lot more, and even feel better in the process!

Self-esteem really is the key to a better life.
Being kind to yourself is important.
Happy Indigenous Peoples' Day.

I'd rather celebrate Skraelings Day to honor those native tribes that ran the Vikings off of North America.
I need prayer warriors. My little brother got hit by a car a little after midnight, Sunday morning. He was in surgery for 20 hours yesterday. They are putting him back into surgery right now. God bless him. Guide the surgeon's hands. And give a good report. In Jesus name, Amen.
I wish I had a complete aversion to alcohol. I wish I did not love that poison.

Get a blood test and have a look at the health of your liver.
It puts you in overdrive in doing the right thing if you have a fatty one.
A great incentive to turn your life habits around.
The first real storm of the season has arrived in Jefferson (far north California). It has been raining here since 6am-it is 11am now. I have the buckets out collecting rainwater from the leak in the roof that is actually a leak in the opening that was originally an RV-style roof vent. That vent has always been an issue since I bought the trailer.

One week sober as of today. I did an Instacart order for delivery later today, and I did my best to ignore the ads for beer and gin that they were pushing on me, seeing as I have ordered both of those things on Instacart in the past.

Staring temptation in the face and emerging victorious. Keep it up. Every small victory is one to celebrate.
Is your nickname connected to something being cute?
Cutesie

Me! Some of us like to act childlike at times, to pretend that we're a younger age. It's very common among autistics. When in that mode, I adore anything cute - hence my little" name.

Very adorable. Glad that you are still in touch with your inner child, it's good for mental health <3

Electric motors are generators. Supply electricity and the motor turns. Turn the motor and it supplies electricity.

Friend nearly scared me out of my wits when they showed me a clip of balloon being pressed against a lot needles without popping (I need to stop doing experiments with balloons).

Could be worse. Reminded me of living in a college dorm with a criminal justice major across the hallway, filling up a balloon full of red dye to be used in an exercise to reflect evidence gathering and analysis based on the spray of blood from being penetrated by a bb-gun.
CBT therapy is not working.
I need a trauma therapist.

I think schema therapy would be a great option for you. It helps with trauma and relationship issues. Unlike CBT, a schema therapist can act like the female friend you're seeking.

I'm actually going to ask for a therapist that does trauma. All the others are useless. I bring up girls from college, Madison, Jade and women ignoring me cafe parks events present they tell me it's in the past. Forget about them love yourself crap think about things you love I can't I have to talk about them not be gaslighting brushed off.

I like that, you shouldn't be gaslighted. Your feelings need to be validated. We all need this. At that time, you felt that these women dis you. Moving forward, l hope you realize that if we seek validation from strangers that's not healthy. Our existence is dependent on how we feel about ourselves.
Not so fun moment: Just finish showering, step out of stall, grab towel from the wall rack, feel something bounce off my shoulder... what? Look down, white/gray ball thing wildly rolling back and forth on the floor, NOPE nope nope nope...

We had such a problem with geckos when living on Guam.
FINALLY had a good neurologist. Scheduled for a lumbar punture, and upped cranial pressure reducing medication. A lawsuit towards the doctor I complained to the board about and his colleague is in order... finally hopefully moving forward to healin. 🥰🌻
Four days sober once again. I hate how Instacart is currently trying to push me to buy more alcoholic beverages from Fred Meyer.

It is a battle. Try clearing your cookies. And if it's on your phone you could also disable the audio permission on google and instacart 🤷‍♀️ just a thought might help. Keep the fight. I'm in a 4 day Tramadol kick and was an addict for 10 years. The fight is hard but keep going. ❤️

The addictions we must stare down every day (like alcohol) might be the toughest ones. Don't rely on willpower... find tools to help you make sobriety last.
