how to reset your nervous system
STEP ONE:
Who the fuck knows? I’m all out of guessing, but reading two books (The Crane Wife by CJ Hauser and Stay True by Hua Hsu) this weekend has been good. Cooking food (Pollo Asado, pizza & bread) with my family, playing Scrabble (I am a winner forever), watching movies (One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest and Magnolia), and looking at ALL THE SNOW has been helpful. I feel the urge to create something with my hands today. If I had collected all of the tears that have fallen from my head this weekend though, I could have filled one of those damn Stanley mugs, I think.
I’m also job hunting, which feels like someone is stabbing my brain with tiny forks all the time, and the worry about everything is at a fever pitch. I wish I was the type of person who could give you a PDF of 100 things to do right now, but I really just want to send you a real wish.
I wish peace for you, and I wish wild wonder and the bravery to do whatever you can to stand up to the horrible things that are happening in our country right now. I wish you power and connection and rest. If you need me to send you some good love or say your name like a prayer of some sort, like a spell of protection and creativity, just leave a comment saying YES. And I will. I will send you whatever heart power I have. Remember the Care Bears? I think I can do that thing.

I sure can use some good vibes. My heart and soul are falling into a place of despair. I cannot concentrate on my mission to make toys for kids.
I'm also drowning in the months-long job hunt; it really wears you down, no? Sending you lots of positive vibes! 😊
