I can see how this is all going to go together until I can get to the next bit.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I want to get this done so I can get back to puppet building.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I am behind on what was my timetable, but this needs to be done.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Being an adult can be really hard and I hit the \u2018I don\u2019t wanna\u2019 stage a couple of weeks ago. But I talked myself into continuing to be an adult with the promise of comic books and other fun things when I am done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I am proud that I am napping less these days which says that I am getting enough sleep at night. I like getting enough sleep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is also the \u2018F\u2019 it\u2019 feeling that I am trying to avoid. Throwing in the towel is not an option right now.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Intrusive thoughts are a pain to deal with, but they can be. I learned all kinds of coping mechanisms to deal with negative dangerous thoughts and I think that has kept me on this planet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have been thinking about that a lot. Of those times I was so down I really thought that death was a good out from the pain I was feeling at the time. And that it is get better for me. Maybe not immediately but I am in a good place now. I have a loving husband when once I thought I was unlovable to anyone outside my family. I have Caroline who is a miracle on so many levels when I once thought I would never have children. I am doing things I love. I have friends that I love dearly. I have family in my corner. I am in a good place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Doesn\u2019t mean that those intrusive thoughts don\u2019t lurk in the background however I think that happens to everyone.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We watched Cursed on Netflix. Really hoping for a second season as this one was mostly set up for the tale of the Lady of the Lake. It held my attention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is a new Muppet show entitled Muppets Now on Disney+. First episode gave me enough that I think that once they sort out the show, it will be a lot of fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is baseball again. And the Mets are basically acting like the Mets if we had the entire season rather than this truncated version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Okay I really need to get back to the project at hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Please stay safe, wear your mask, and I know I am cheering for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I am grateful for things that banish intrusive thoughts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My favorite song in the Steven Universe Oeuvre of songs is entitled \u201cHere Comes a Thought\u201d written by the show\u2019s creator Rebecca.
