I slept early then woke around 12am... Then while half-snoozing together kitty twitched and accidentally socked me in the eye 😅 After that we each had a midnight snack (a few crackers and cocoa for me, wet food for her).
Bummer
Edit: Fuck even the crackers still hurt though. I'm still struggling really badly to eat anything.I beat myself up a lot for not being focused on art but tbh I'm in an amount of (chronic unmanaged) physical pain on a daily basis that does make it quite difficult to focus. Not whining or looking for sympathy. Just stating a fact that there is a genuine barrier there, and cutting myself some slack.
It really sucks being chronically ill - it goes on for so long people just forget about it and it becomes the new normal. Totally get the beating up- stuff needs to be done and there’s a lot of guilt. Take care, and keep posting….
Thanks. It's really shitty right now. If I can get even some of it more manageable I'll be over the moon
