GIG SOTD 💜🦊🪖

Currently fueled by an almost empty packet of cigarettes, my second XL of the day, and an appetite for revenge.

A bit of an update from the past *checks calendar* two days:

I thought 3 or 4 days had passed but it’s only been two since I’ve been on here. The past forty eight ish hours were horrible. By far the worst time here so far. I’d say it’s right up there with my worst days in the ED during the peak of COVID. But thanks to that trauma I’m more aware of how horrible it is. I don’t really feel it which is a relief but also terrifying and not at all healthy 🙃

As per usual, there’s so much I want to say but we’ll save it all for when this mess is over and we’re all back home with our families IYH amennnn 🙏🏽

No GIG today but here’s your SOTD anyway, courtesy of my running playlist.

Life update below ⬇️

I didn’t sleep when I got in last night. I showered and ate something hot and then spoke to my husband for a few hours. But midday today I finally fell asleep and was out for over 7 hours…which is a lot for me. So now I’m wide awake again and just got back from a very long (but boring) run. I showered again and realized I am completely covered in bruises. The most recent one from my gun hitting my spine during my run. Didn’t feel it then but it’s a bit painful now. I genuinely do not feel in touch with my body which is…not great.

Think I’m going to go daven a bit because I’m losing my mind a bit and don’t know what else to do.

Mental Health check! How’s everyone else doing?

GIG SOTD 01.01.24

Let’s start a thing!

🎶 Givati in Gaza Song of the Day 🎶

Everyone always asks what’s it’s like being one of the only females in my unit (and the only female officer) and I grew up with three brothers so I’m not phased. And they ask what we do all day and it’s a lot of patrols and equipment inventory and mental health check ins and briefs. And during all of this one of us usually gets a song in our head and then on a patrol that person starts singing or humming and then it’s in everyone’s head and to keep things light we dance to pass down time (which our unit has had a lot of lately) and make each other laugh. Which is so damn necessary right now. We have days that are really heavy - a few weeks ago it felt like everyday was like that. Lately it’s been…okay. And I’m so damn grateful for my givati fam.

Anyway. This was today’s song.

It always feels insensitive when I check in on here with “I’m still alive” so here, have a song.
