This is a quote from Sophia Petrillo from the Golden Girls. She’s talking about being over 80 but I think it’s relevant for people with depression. I didn’t want it fancy or pretty, just the quote embroidered on fabric.

I’d like to make a bunch of them and make a collage on the wall. I have some ideas for some nice ones and some salty ones and other reminders.

So remember: Its summer now, and you can dress however you want.

There’s no such thing as being too fat or too chubby or too tall prntoo short for shorts or tank tops or whatever you want to wear. If you feel cute and comfortable, you are.

A few tips:

  • Remember that a lot of clothes are designed to look good on hangers and be easy to mass produce. You are not a hanger and all bodies are not identical. Clothes not fitting right on you is not your fault.
  • Always try on clothes when you can. Clothes not fitting or looking good is not failure, its part of the process. If those clothes aren’t good enough for you, find ones that are.
  • Women’s clothing sizes are devilwork. They have no consistency and standardization, even among the same brand. I vary from a size 12 to a size 18 depending on brand and style. These numbers dont mean anything. Just find the items you are comfy in.
  • You are not obligated to impress anyone. If some random dude has a problem with your leg hair or muffin top or stretch marks, thats his problem and he can choke on it.

Enjoy your summer.

And make sure to put on sunscreen 😀

Absolutely! And stay hydrated.

I thought about it on the way home, and I started thinking about how when my mom tried to pick Horatio up to bring him to me when he was a kitten, he hissed at her for taking him away from the food. And how when he was a bit older he was climbing around on the top of Arthur’s crate and slipped and got his leg caught and when I tried to free him, he bit me. And how when I tried to give Nebula a bath she somehow turned into silly putty in my hands and escaped. And when my (now ex) boyfriend tried to kiss me the first time and I really really didn’t want to, and as he was leaning toward me and Arthur jumped up between us and licked my face and broke the mood and saved me. And Arthur playing with Horatio and licking Nebula’s face. 

I know if someone goes into that apartment that doesn’t belong, Nebula and Horatio will hide. And I know if someone tries to hurt Horatio, he’ll fight back. No one is laying a hand on that cat without earning some holes. He’s not afraid to use what Nature gave him. And I would like to think, I really would, that if someone tried to hurt the cats, Arthur would try to save them. I don’t know for sure that he would, he’s so friendly to the point of insanity. He’s still friendly with my creepy neighbors despite me radiating Do Not Want whenever I see them. But I would like to think that if it was clear that someone had ill intentions and tried to hurt the cats, he would do something.

He and I had a chat when I got home. Maybe it’s silly, maybe I’m wrong but I think he was listening. 

Ugh or maybe I’m just exhausted and paranoid. Maybe I will feel very stupid in the morning. 

Creepy neighbor is still around but he’s been avoiding me. That’s good but I’m worried by the fact that he’s been hanging out with the guy he said would shoot my dog because of where he goes to the bathroom. (I pick up after him so?????) It’s very strange because Creepy Neighbor told me this guy also pulled a gun on him.

And now after I reported the creepiness…They’re suddenly pals.

I’ve got plenty of stuff to defend myself with but now I’m worried about my animals. The other guy APPARENTLY threatened Arthur. Creepy Neighbor knows my schedule. And his weird obsession with witchcraft while clearly knowing nothing about it has me worried especially for Nebula.

Hopefully I’m just being paranoid.
