Pistachios, mandarin orange cups, and slices of homemade bread are some of my favorite snacks to munch while I'm working from home nowadays. 💜

I've been having foot cramps in my right foot more often lately. I just used my usual hot & cold pack from CVS to help relax the muscles after dealing with one while I was caught in the midst of my usual after shower routine tonight.

This briefly reminded me of the foot baths I used to do while I was still living inside the girls-only dorm during my days at a private boarding school. 🏫

If I can find the materials for it, I think I'd like to do those type of baths here at home too.

I still remember the joy I felt after being invited to be a contributor for NeuroClastic (https://neuroclastic.com) because of my activities on Twitter. I haven't written an article for them yet after all this time, but I'm still grateful for the opportunity they've given to me nonetheless. 🥰

Kerima Çevik is the most underrated autism writer/advocate that I know of.

And what she wrote here is absolutely true: "The pattern of abuse in every case, and I mean every case, begins with the appropriation and perversion of the process and meaning of mourning."
