A well-timed message from the universe after a total sobbing mental collapse last night. I spent four hours yesterday filling out social security paperwork about what I can do now that I couldn’t do before and what my life is like day-to-day because of my conditions. That put my head on a loop of, “...it wasn’t supposed to be like this,” and, “What happens if I don’t get better,” and, “Why wouldn’t those fucking doctors just listen to me for all those months?!” You get the idea... So here’s the thing: I can keep swimming in all of that fear and anxiety or try to convince myself that shit IS going to be more than OK on the other side of all of this and that being a person who does all of the right things in the right way is going to pay off. I’d rather believe that making my health and wellness my full time job now, in the short term, will allow me to fulfill all kinds of dreams and make all kinds of awesome things happen in the long term... than to allow myself to believe that nothing is ever going to be ok again. But that doesn’t mean that I won’t have the occasional sobbing mental collapse. And thank goodness I have friends like my gal Cindil to talk me back from the mental ledge when I can’t do it for myself. True friends are a special kind of treasure. If you are having one of those breakdowns and need someone to talk to that gets it, reach out. We Spoonies must stick together. #nerdzilla #nerdherd #businesscouch #businesscasual #businesswoman #blogger #bloggersofinstagram #writersofinstagram #chronicpainwarrior #spinepainwarrior #degenerativediscdisease #spoonie #piriformissyndrome #rehab #health #skincare #beauty #muletown #muletownusa #columbiatn #muletowner #changeYourFingLife (at Muletown Rec)

For those who like to follow along, I’m about to start my newest stocking. This one for my great-niece Violet Marie! This is what they look like at the start, and this one is almost 100 appliqué pieces 😳. #nerdzilla #nerdherd #felt #applique #bucilla #bucillastocking #shescrafty #auntkelly #violetmarie #christmas #christmasstocking #handmade #handmadewithlove #wip (at Columbia, Tennessee)

#linkinbio I did a lot of research for this piece and it turns out that medical #gaslighting is very much a thing. Women are less likely to be taken seriously when they report pain, they’re treated less aggressively, and even given less medication than men. Attractiveness even plays a role! The more physically attractive a woman is, the less her pain reporting will be believed! WHAT THE FUCK. #nerdzilla #nerdherd #businesscouch #businesscasual #businesswoman #ceoofmylife #lifechangingskincare #blogger #bloggersofinstagram #writersofinstagram #chronicpainwarrior #spinepainwarrior #degenerativediscdisease #skincare #beautycare #putyourbestfaceforward #skindepedence #muletown #muletownusa #columbiatn #muletowner #backernation #chronicpain #pain #painmanagement (at Columbia, Tennessee)

I came for water aerobics but the pool is down for maintenance. In the spirit of, “life happens for you, not to you,” I decided to go home and change into workout gear and come back. In the process I learned that my Shirts That Sell are perfect for the gym and can help me expand that network! I need more gals in my high vibe tribe! #unstoppableinfluencer #highvibetribe #nerdzilla #nerdherd #businesscouch #businesscasual #businesswoman #ceoofmylife #lifechangingskincare #blogger #bloggersofinstagram #writersofinstagram #chronicpainwarrior #spinepainwarrior #degenerativediscdisease #skincare #beautycare #putyourbestfaceforward #skindepedence #muletown #muletownusa #columbiatn #muletowner #nerdygirl #chickswithtattoos #tattooedgirls #tattooed #tattooed #beautifuldisaster (at Muletown Rec)

I love that @emilymcdowell_ had to add the edit for we #murderino types 😂🤣 #ssdgm #Repost @emilymcdowell ・・・ Hi guys, this is an old post from like two years ago because I have no functioning brain space today, but it’s just as true now as it was then. So enjoy this deep thought from 2016, and if your pleasure is murder, you should definitely feel guilty. #emilymcdowellstudio #guiltypleasures #takeupspace #watchthehousewives #eatthecalories #youarefine #youaredoingafuckinggreatjob PS: Edited to add: people, I meant murderING! all you @myfavoritemurder fans are fine, you do you, just don’t do the murdering. #nerdherd #nerdzilla (at Woodland Park at the City of Columbia Parks and Recreation)

He left leg is rehabbing so well now that the right leg is the tighter one 😄👍🏻 finished all the same weights and exercises as last time and showed a lot of improvement I manual stretches today. In other news? These Fabletics leggings and sports bras are THE MOST amazing workout clothes I’ve ever had. So damn comfortable, so good at wicking moisture, and so, so long enough for my Sasquatch legs 😄 #fabletics #fableticsleggings #nevergiveup #cantstopwontstop #spinepainwarrior #spinerehab #rehabilitation #physicaltherapy #strengthtraining #degenerativediscdisease #piriformissyndrome #arthritis #herniateddisc #lumbarspine #lumbar #nerdzilla #nerdherd (at Mid-Tennessee Bone & Joint Clinic)

On February 13, 2017 eighth graders, Libby German and Abby Williams were killed in Delphi, Indiana at the Monon Bridge trails. Some of the only information that has been released is the photo and sketch below, as well as a audio clip saying “down the hill”, both from one of the girls phones. It has been just over a year, but no arrests have been made in the case. Below is a flyer with current information! #ssdgm #murderino #murder #wanted #reward #mystery #nerdherd #nerdzilla (at Columbia, Tennessee)

“When we are kind to others, it releases neurochemicals in our bodies that increase trust and give us a warm feeling. Research suggests that being kind toward others is associated with better and stronger mental and physical health, relationships, life satisfaction, communities, and even economies, writes Cousineau.” Consider being kind to someone else if you are having a hard time pulling yourself out of a funk, rather than being mired in a pity party. You may be surprised at how good it can make you feel to make someone else just a little happier. #loveterrorist http://d.shne.us/uh #dailyshine #dailyshinetext #shine #shineonyoucrazydiamond #nerdherd #nerdzilla #loveterrorist #lovethem (at Columbia, Tennessee)
