Life lately

I’ll be honest, procrastination has always been my strong suit. I tend to do things last minute because I don’t feel like I need a lot of time to get things done. But I’ve been procrastinating working on this blog and I want to be honest with why. 2026 has arguably been one of the worst years of my life, these last 2 months being the most draining. I spent a month and a half taking care of my grandmother and watching her slowly pass from cancer. Being the youngest in my generation made it difficult, and having a physical disability made it even more difficult. I wanted to do more, help more with her caregiving, spend more time with her, but my body can only do so much. I spent 2 months feeling like I was overextending myself and not doing enough at the same time. All this to say, I’m a normal person with a normal life. And sometimes it’s hard outside of being disabled. Sometimes it’s extra hard because of my disability. But either way, she’s at peace now and that brings me peace. And I want to redirect my energy into building community because that’s what keeps me going when everything feels tough. Maybe this wasn’t a necessary post and my absence went unnoticed, but I want to start holding myself accountable. I’ll have more for you guys very soon. And please tell your loved ones that you love them.  <3
