Luxury of Failing – Reprise
So… about that quintessential Sandra thing I said I didn’t get chosen for a few weeks ago?! It’s come home to roost. I begin law school Fall 2022. I’m still shocked I got in. Fam…!!! I’m gonna be a WHOLE JD!!! WHAT?!...
Pressure
111/77 I couldn’t take my blood pressure pill this morning cause my next step after taking it would have been to call the ambulance right before I passed out. I don’t have any recent memory of my blood pressure being this low?! This has been as a result of: 1. Moringa...
#WhitePeople
I’m gonna need #WhitePeople to get it together. WHY would you come into a HOSPITAL in the middle of a pandemic, by-pass all the safety protocols, ignore all the masked people handing you a mask as you enter, head straight for the info desk and then have the AUDACITY...
Luxury of Failing – Practical Application
I tried something quintessentially ‘Sandra’ - I applied for something but in the end, didn’t get chosen. I got the news yesterday. In a year rife with loss, today, so far? I’m feeling pretty great. This thing wasn’t tied to my ability to ‘eat’ or live or exist. It...
I’m THAT Patient
Two Weeks Ago… Nurse Practitioner: Well everything else looks pretty ok but your labs are showing me that your cholesterol is approaching the little bit high levels… the computer is suggesting I put you on cholesterol pills… did you- Me: I don’t feel like taking any...
Madness
Trying to balance my want to go out and enjoy/explore things with the fact that Florida is now the epicenter of the Covid/Delta pandemic. I basically stay home still, with the exception of doctors visits. I wanna see a drag show or catch a movie in a theatre or lunch...
Disabled Chronicles, No. 346
Today was my first foray into the public to do my labs. Baby tubes… I forgot about having them use the baby tubes until about half way through, after them having to throw away (!!!) three partially filled tubes and sacrificing two blown veins to the cause. The woman...
Mom’s Burial
So… today is the anniversary of my Mom’s burial. I always forget until I ask myself WHY am I acting like a crazy person towards those that I love and who care about me? Sometimes it’s so abrupt that I wonder what kind of situation is going on in my brain to make me...
SO.MUCH.PLANNING.
Been busy… pretty tired. Forgot to take a pic of the other dish we made today… it was yummy though But these still happen. I notice that I don’t cook as often since I’ve been in my new home, cause I don’t eat as much? I may take a pic of my ridiculous freezer cause...
Disabled Chronicles, No.46
Had to put off getting my first mammogram last year because Covid. Finally get my appointment squared away for this year. I show up to the mammogram place today - First of all, the check-in counter was above my head, so I had to elevate my chair almost fully for them...
Luxury Of Failure
I was listening to a podcast about creativity and failing this morning. The hosts were saying how their main creative efforts were how they ‘ate’ (I.e., pay the bills, pay their staff, etc…) and how over the past couple of years they were trying to branch out and try...
Study of Hands, No.32
It’s been almost TWO YEARS since my last Study of Hands print - um what?! This one gave me agita! Lol I forgot a lot of the technique I used to make the lines flow the way I wanted them to I have some tweaks to make before I put this one up for sale. I want to...
