A mom just trying to survive. I write stuff to live in the present moment and publish it real time.

Hi, I've enjoyed my stay here but that time is ending, since techies.social is shutting down. Thanks for the good times @eescobar (looks like you already moved).

I am packing up my bags now and moving over to [email protected].

Will do the migration thingy and hope to see you there!

I'll have to manually re-post my poems so as to not lose them. Please bear with me.

@emilio I'm trying to take care of this today or tomorrow
@emilio thanks a lot, I appreciate it.
@emilio hey, I understand. Yes I can but this week is really nuts and I'd like to find the right place to go. Can I have another week or so? Thanks for hosting me while you were here.

No Regrets

When one's satisfied
It's hard to look back
And wish to change anything

My trauma
The things that hurt
The things that numbed
Happened

But now we're here
Us three
Under the oaks
Nestled in snow

You let me be me
Sharing all I feel
No need to justify
The space I take

I'm wiser now
And we have our family
So no regrets
Just acceptance

@BobWilliams yes! That's why I liked Rust Valley Restorers
"Attention is the rarest and purest form of generosity."
- Simone Weil

Big revelation: cheese!
Many a bite size piece
Discovery of umami
You wiggle, "more please Mommy!"

@carnage4life A touchy subject -- do you have a take on the Colonialism aspects? I'd love to watch it but if there are more white savior motifs / cultural appropriation, I probably can't enjoy it.
@carnage4life honestly thrilled you're here. It's great, low anxiety. Lots of academia is here too.
