Oh, Hoyer Lift.
Oh, Hoyer Lift.
You scare the crap out of me.
Hence, the need for adult undergarments.
Which are not chic at all.
You may be right for some, but not for me.
Bring back my sit-and-stand ASAP.

SH*T HAPPENS
If you think wearing an adult undergarment would be convenient.
I can assure you they are not.
Why do you think they are delivered discreetly? \
In an unmarked box?
Under the cover of darkness?
Because...
SH*T HAPPENS.

ASSISTED LIVING
I am grateful to be living in an ISL rather than a long-term care facility. However, that doesn't stop me from wondering what it would be like living in assisted living. Remember the Senior Swifties in Sedalia, Missouri? I still want to be one.
A lady in assisted living was on TikTok baking KC Chiefs cookies for the other residents to enjoy. Her dream is to meet Patrick Mahomes.

I was invited to a bridal shower; I was honored to be asked. I always think that because I don't hear from my friends that often, they have forgotten about me. How wrong I was.

No king
America's not a monarchy
It is a democracy.
/June 14, 2025
No king protests thrived.
Americans united.
Not divided.
One goal.
Save democracy
Take our country back from a dictator.
A tiny king for a small-minded man
Father's Day.
A silly Bitmoji.
With a message that's still true.
Dad, I love you.
All my accomplishments.
You missed them.
I was a teacher, a volunteer, and a writer, too.
A blogger, vlogger, and influencer, to name a few.
I hope that you saw it all.
I love and miss you, Dad/
I always will.

HEY, REMEMBER ME?
Hey, it would have been nice to have been included.
"Socialize with your peers," I am told.
Yeah, I tried/
But no more.
Remember me?
I am the square peg.
Trying to fit.
It is not working/
I fear my peers are able-bodied.
They remember me.
They accept me
I know I am weird.
I like art, writing, and making videos.
My able-bodied friends encourage my weirdness.
Remember me?

Your worries are not theirs.

With kindness and a sprinkling of love.
