Neotenous Oscar set in the teachers lounge staring at a sandwich; neotenous was written at the top of his notebook page. He had scribbled, are we really just animals? Esther’s generalization of humanity bothered him. Connor (Mr. Miller to his students) sat down with Oscar. It wasn’t until he spoke that Oscar was aware ofContinue reading “Winter Season”

My last weight loss journey: drink more water
Drink more water. 🤢 Stay hydrated. If I may ask, when did the phrase ‘stay hydrated’ become so common? Honestly. I live in my own world.

But I’ve tried to addContinue reading “My last weight loss journey: drink more water”
The Masks We Wear
Do you wear a mask? Is it a heavy task? ~ Do you wear a mask of silence? Because it keeps you compliant. ~ Do you wear a mask of anger? All the emotions build inside you creating that clangor. ~ Do you wear a mask of work? Buried deep in the muck. ~ DoContinue reading “The Masks We Wear”

My last weight loss journey: journaling
I find journaling laborious. There’s no fun in it. Yes, it sucks! With that being said, writing stuff down is the best way to keep track of it. A budget. A gratitude journal. A prayer journal. The notes on my phone is a rockstar. Especially since I discovered you can make it read to you.Continue reading “My last weight loss journey: journaling”
Tess of the D’Urbervilles by Thomas Hardy: it’s all HER fault.
I just finished listening to the book and it upset me greatly. Before I start, allow me to say that yes, this book was written in a different time. But gee. So here’s the low down.
