Today was a frustrating day. Nothing awful. Just one thing after another. These extreme weather events have an effect on the kids....and us adults. All made worse by a class art project using wet chalk - which I learned, is an incredibly annoying sensation. Yes, dipping pieces of chalk into water and then applying it to piece of cardstock. Awful.

I've had this thought before. Someone needs to regulate Pinterest. Felt criminal. lol

I'm joking. Regulation does not work. Life should be full of experiments and trials. It's not possible to ascertain bad ideas before they're implemented. Or imagine consequences.

I really don't have much to write and I'm tipping way too sarcastic from reading news headlines. It gets old. As a writer, it's fun to rewrite the headlines and live in an alternate fantasy - one where integrity exists. Sometimes I do that with my Obscure project. 'my level of anxiety is just a product of ____'

Writing helps me identify emotional clusters. I have severe complex PTSD. Politics isn't a joke to me. I am fully immersed in an extremely vulnerable population and lives are on the line. It was a choice I made, to serve this way. I can't turn off my heart. Some days are harder than others. Today was pretty hard.
