Thursday

I woke up still feeling off. Lightheaded, exhausted, and a little nauseous. One of those days where your body is clearly telling you to slow down, but life still has things scheduled.

Biscotti had a groomer appointment, so I dropped him off around 9:30am. Then I headed to my 10:00 appointment to get my taxes done. Big girl stuff.

Also… apparently big girl stuff includes owing the IRS money now. About $1,000 this year. Love that for me. Not really.

Later in the day, I picked up Biscotti and he looked like a tiny, skinny little teddy bear. I swear he looked like he lost five pounds just from the haircut. So small, so cute. I’ll insert a picture because it’s honestly ridiculous how different he looks.

When I got home, I crashed. I took a nap and didn’t even fight it. I’ve just been so exhausted, and I think it finally caught up to me. It honestly feels like my body is reacting to everything going on… the stress, the emotions, all of it… and it’s starting to take a physical toll.

So I spent the rest of the evening doing absolutely nothing. Just laying around and letting myself rest.

This little corner of the internet is where I write about grief, healing, and the unexpected process of rebuilding life after loss. Some posts are reflections, some are small wins, and some are just honest moments from the journey.

If you’re navigating grief too, I’m really glad you’re here.
