Vivid nightmares are the worst ๐ซ I guess I'm awake now.
I'm not sure of the name, but it goes: tr in third stitch (skipping two stitches), and then going behind the tr to do two dc in the two skipped stiches, and then repeat. And once you turn, it's hds stitches. Hope that made sense.
Part of my IOP is building mastery at something, so I have been crocheting my heart out. Here's the back panel of my sweater. Love this color.

IOP approved. The first week was tough. But I have been encouraged to build up a hobby again and to develop some cope ahead techniques. So I am crocheting again and writing a letter to my estranged father. I've also been taking care of my health. 5 lbs down. Long road ahead. I've got this.
After cleaning a little and TMS, I might try to return to crocheting again. I took a step back with everything that happened. Luckily, I was accepted into an IOP, which I hope I start next week, pending my insurance. I am sad, but things are looking good up.
I want a puppy. A little schnauzer. I wonder if my son would be allergic to one. Most dogs cause his congestion to flare badly. Wishful thinking.
Funeral is over. Went incredibly well. I cried my eyes out, but somehow, though I am sad, I feel better. Miss you Pop. You have a lot of people who loved you.
I'm ready to fly home tomorrow.
Today is the day. I'll say goodbye to my Pop and cry my tears for him. I will be sad, but I can do this.
Thank the gods for coffee.
Funeral is tomorrow. Long day of travel, awkward family encounters, and an extreme lack of sleep. I am beat.
My grandfather passed away yesterday after a full life of 94 years old. I hope he is at peace. I will miss you, Pop.
I will do one good thing today.
Job is hard. Home is hard. Family is hard. And somewhere in between, I have to breathe.
I need a break from life.
It's funny how the smallest thing can remind you of a loved one, and it leaves you crying in the grocery store. I hate crying in public.
Somedays, you just need a cat.
The slow death of a loved one is agony. ๐ I am having a rough time.
A new adventure: rotator cuff pain.
Ortho scheduled in January.
Oh, what fun.
I'm ready for the holidays to be over. All I want is snow and sleep.
Been feeling a lot of emotions this week, mostly sadness. I used to love the holiday season, but now... I know what I'm feeling is probably a down swing from my bipolarism. It's been hard to function, to take care of my home, my family, work. All I want to do is sleep.
Oooh! Kalandra! Love them ๐
Nope, this will be my first... if I ever feel comfortable enough to even think of publishing it, lol
I'm not looking for an editor right now. I'm not even sure this book will see the light of day lol. But thank you ๐
Congrats Lem!
