Sleep is so important brother and REM is critical. but I have a terrible sleep disorder and the headaches... Sleep and light sensitivity seems related


But I'm starting to dream again after years of insomnia. Sometimes I sleep for hours without waking up. Although it's still frequent and interrupted

I'm sleeping a little bit better now but I have a terrible sleep disorder and the headaches... Sleep ear and headache, light sensitivity seems all interrelated somehow. Always numb and sore at the base of my skull


But I'm starting to dream again after years of insomnia. Sometimes I sleep for hours several without waking up. Although it's still frequent and interrupted. But still waking up with headache

Yeah there is actually a rare genetic condition where the people affected die from being unable to sleep… crazy stuff

You can die from kidney stones pain also... It's like the only pain that's actually fatal


I've seen people die all sorts of way under the 🌞.... Especially taking a shit lol 😆 multiples... Or impacted aka paralytic ileus

Poop= the bad.. got to get it out of there

Or the rotting inside out.. thing. That's a smelly mess. Yeah 👍🤣 it's looking better.... NOT

Yeah 👍 it's all downstream brother I hear you loud and clear


It's really not a terrible thing to accept if you're able to not let it rule over us. Just an awareness of it

I developed a morbid sense of humor early in my career to deal with the stress and fubar bullshit

What's important is our health above all

Knowledge is power up, in the right hands

I just think it's good to be honest with oneself and true to ones nature

Preaching teaching healing all require a certain amount of self sacrifice and a philosophy to help one another

Issues been weighing on my mind also. It's been a tough year for me

It's been a tough last few years, struggling with my demons and self-control.

Depression
Indulgence
Suicidal ideations
"Sins"

Well my outlook is to expect the worst and prepare for it. Then when something good happens... It's a pleasant surprise 😁

Then you can learn to manage the the ugly. But it's not failsafe. Just easier to manage

I've said that before too lol, and indeed it is.

I still can't believe I have a 1year old.
She's great though.

Life's a rollercoaster, it has its ups and downs.

Ready to go back up.

Yeah 👍 that's what really keeps me going right now. Cycle of life brother. I'm just waiting on the new arrivals

I used to do pediatrics so I admire kids. Just don't have any myself. Lots of responsibility being a competent parent.

I worked the NICUs' and with cystic fibrosis kids ECT. Lots of transplant surgeries and respiratory issues. Now I am disabled and dependent to some degree

My wife died a few months ago and I suppose that's been weighing on me pretty hard

I couldn't imagine...I feel that.

It's never easy.

I apologize.

Thanks 🙏 for the sentiment. She was a wonderful person and I'll never forget that part

She kept me centered and anchored. She was my confidant. I really miss her. But she's in a better place and not suffering

I just need to heal some more before I'm ready for the next gig

my wife worked for years at a urology clinic as a nurse, and indeed- when you need to pee, and you cant - and your bladder ruptures....next level pain for sure.

very sorry to hear that. No words are even enough....

The other part of honestly is that we don't always have the answers to the issue at hand


That's one of the hardest things to grasp

Along with expecting the worse [ or being prepare for it ] and being pleasantly surprised when it does not blow up in your face, I also believe there is a reason for everything. Sounds cliche, but I keep this caveat always in my mind.
While things happen for a reason all too often, we do not need to know the reason, or it is not time for the reason to be divulged yet. IME too many people struggle and 'punish' themselves for not knowing what the reason is.
Acceptance is the key.
You know it is what is unless you can do something to change it..
Change is very hard for many and most possess a little bit inside them that wants to resist change.

“Be water, my friend. Empty your mind.
Be formless, shapeless, like water.
You put water into a cup, it becomes the cup.
You put water into a bottle, it becomes the bottle.
You put it into a teapot, it becomes the teapot.
Now water can flow, or it can crash.
Be water, my friend.”
— Bruce Lee

100% Acceptance and lowering expectations... especially when it comes to other people. My husband gets disappointed a lot by how his parents are, in terms of not only thier relationship, but the one they have with our son... he was hoping they'd make up for less than stellar parenting (that's being kind, they sucked lol) by being good grandparents. I keep telling him to lower his expectations, like waaay down, and he'll be disappointed less. They are the same people, they haven't done much to grow and show no remorse the past or desire to change in their 50s, so why expect more of them than they are capable of giving? Then if they do do something, like actually be the ones to reach out and check in on thier grandchild... you'll be pleasantly surprised. I've come to expect nothing from other humans and it's lessened my disappointment in life.... except my husband, but he's fully aware of my expectations lol.
Acceptance has the same effect. Getting all bent out of shape over something beyond your control does nothing but piss you off. It changes nothing, except maybe bringing more negative vibes your way.
Not that I'm some Buddhist monk or anything, I get pissed as much as the next person... but I'm getting better at letting shit go. Ask Elsa, she'll tell ya. Screenshot_20230522_080528_Google.jpg

Mornin Wild Chyld!
These were gifted to me by a friend. Good thing is is that it’s pretty well known and easy to obtain. If you can’t find any, let me know and I’ll send ya a couple of beans.
So far, it’s some of the hardest hitting I have smoked in a very long time. They say it’s also known as an anti inflammatory.

I have no idea where he got these . They came in a small clear bag and it has a sticker on it with a number and the name. It’s for sure not cult classic packing. I’ll take a pic this evening and see if anyone knows where it came from. He also gave me some lavender permafrost that is hard hitting as well. Those are in a zip lock bag with no identifying info at all. I will call him this evening and see if he remembers where he got them.
 
Soooooo, this morning these came (pics) of a stock that I have been waiting on for over a year! Andrea Santacroce from Italy is the builder of this stock. It’s not even been coated nor polished yet and it’s still beautiful! I’m soooooo stoked! Now we wait for the final polishing and to clear customs.IMG_0934.jpegIMG_0932.jpegIMG_0930.jpegIMG_0929.jpeg

Absolutely gorgeous stock. I really dig the purple epoxy, looks metallic almost.
Very well built by the looks of it.
Hope it treats you well in the competition.

Thanks! He is well known in my world, and I have been waiting for over a year now. I’m just darn excited! The fact that it looks so pretty in the raw, let’s me know the completely finished product will be straight up gorgeous 🥰 This one won’t be ready by the weekend for sure. Once it hits here it will be bedded etc. I’m a couple of months out from being able to shoot it.
