O & T 😛

I wish everyone could be tolerant and accepting of harmless differences (race, gender, sexuality).

And 10:30am. Don’t judge me. Yeah, you.

@emilyheals tagged me for 9 happy moments from 2020.

Much obliged!

1. Valentines Day. Life was still somewhat normal, at least in terms of Covid. Husband and I went to the Japanese arcade, wandered over to the microbrewery and pizzeria next door, had many many beers, and just enjoyed each other’s company and had fun.

2. Grocery store thank you cards. I switched to curbside pickup as soon as Covid became a thing, because my immune system is weak from chemo. One of the first observations I had when picking up groceries is that the job of delivering them has gotta suck. So I started drawing thank you cards. I draw one for every grocery pickup order.

3. I got a dishwasher! They say experiences bring more happiness than objects. This particular object gives me the experience of not having to hand-wash dishes every morning, so it brings me daily happiness.

4. Definitely NOT my colonoscopy, but guess what? Afterward, after more than 24 hours of not having solid food, after having a completely empty digestive system, I got a reward: Breakfast from the BEST diner. And when poor Husband needed a colonoscopy, I returned the favor. I have weirdly good memories of sitting around at home, eating pancakes and bitching about “the lemon dirt water from hell.”

5. Getting closer with Squish. New friend has been promoted to Best Friend! She’s so sweet and genuine, so caring, and I can’t wait to go back to hanging out with her all the time. She’s one of the few friends who rarely talks about my cancer. She’ll ask how I’m feeling and what I need, of course...and then go off about her sister or house hunting or work; or she’ll ask me about Momo or Jay or video games; and suddenly I’m pleasantly distracted and it’s awesome.

6. One particular day in the summer when everything was warm and bright and green and in bloom! I went to a park with Momo and walked around for about an hour, then sat and ate lunch and drew for about an hour. I reminded myself, “You’re gonna miss this when it’s cold and snowy.” (I really do.) I reminded myself, “You’re gonna miss this when you can’t go outside anymore.”

7. Halloween. I was Krillin! Jay was a plague doctor! We saw animals and hung out! After not seeing him for months at that point, it was so refreshing and so fun.

8. Finding GlitchCat7′s stream on Twitch: twitch.tv/glitchcat7 . He’s a kaizo Super Mario World player more than anything. Kaizo is basically virtuoso-level Super Mario World, played on homebrewed courses. It’s like the difference between some kid riding a snowboard down a green-circle hill, and Chloe Kim landing a 1080 on a halfpipe. It’s not just the tricks, though. Glitch is a genuinely cool, accepting, welcoming guy. When I told him that he’s the only person besides me that Jay follows on twitch, he sent Jay a care package full of merch and an encouraging note! So cool.

9. Drives with Jay. When he stays with me, we go for drives on weekends. We’ve been to Ft. Collins, Manitou Springs, Fairplay, and a loop around Laramie and Cheyenne (did not get out of the car in WY, their mask mandates are somewhere between LOL and NOPE). We found this funky metal dino and her funky metal baby in Manitou Spgs.

Social media has really done a number on my perception of human (especially female) anatomy. I constantly get upset that my natural waist isn��t sucked in like these girls on Instagram, completely forgetting that ribcages and internal organs exist (as does photoshop and surgery).I tend to view my body as pieces (breasts, waist, hips, thighs) instead of as a whole complete thing. It’s rough because I’ve practically forgotten what a human body is supposed to look like completely unaltered. All I see when I look at my body are flaws

Hey guys! I’m starting this page in regards to my In-Home Training business I’ve started up, named Provisions-Training. I’ll be posting a lot of motivational posts, informative tips and other useful things. 

Also, some of you might remember my old blog, Fuck-Toned-Get-Shredded/Fuck-Toned-Get-Swole, that’s me! It’s been a long time and I needed to find a base in which to start posting quality content. If you remember my old profile (hopefully some of you 15,000 are still on here), throw me a like or message, let’s catch up!

Norway Roadtrip

So at the end of this month we are heading to Norway (Helsinki - Stockholm ferry) and the idea is to drive to Jotunheimen and visit Ålesuns and Geiranger. OBS Norway! Any tips, advice, suggestions? What should we know and consider? Do we have any norwegeians here on tumblr to help? :)
