I only ever cook for one but yes, it often seems like I'm cooking for a full table. The same number of prep utensils and pots & pans get used. The same space is occupied. The same mess is left behind. The only things you don't waste are the additional plates and forks.
When is the last time you ordered Chinese takeout?
Yessss, it's definitely gonna be Hedo!! Positive vibes to you my friend. Life does decide for us sometimes, but we can still try our f'n damndest to put up a fight.
Do you ever feel like your fight needs to be refueled?

Oh hell, yes. The tank needs refilling and that is so not a euphemism.
Energy from others, from friends, is beyond appreciated and healing, but I feel like the bulk of it needs to come from within. I feel guilt otherwise.
When was the last time you gave yourself a mental kick in the ass, whether or not accompanied by a couple or three tears?
Are you organized enough to do your grocery shopping once a week, or do you pop into the store repeatedly throughout the week to pick up what you forgot or didn't plan for?
my small self... like a book amongst the many on a shelf

Oh no - not a matter of organization but that our fridge (soon to be replaced!) can't handle food for more than a couple of days.
OK, fine. Somewhat disorganized, but I typically pick up various stuff at the market when buying lunch. It's easier on my back too.

An Ohio State student crashed his vehicle into pedestrians on the Columbus campus Monday, then slashed students with a butcher knife before being fatally shot by a university police officer, authorities said.Eleven people were rushed to hospitals and one was in critical condition, according to university Police Chief Craig Stone.The drama began shortly before 10 a.m. ET, when the suspect deliberately drove over a curb and began his attack, Stone said. He said the officer arrived about a minute later and engaged the suspect."We are very fortunate that an OSUPD officer was there and took quick action," Stone said.Monica Moll, the university's public safety director, identified the assailant as Abdul Razak Ali Artan, a student at the school. Multiple media outlets including NBC News and the Associated Press, citing sources who requested anonymity, described him as an native of Somalia living in the United States as a legal permanent resident.

How do you get the energy to refuel?
I hope it gets better for you. For all of us working our way there, to the light, to our light.
(no question here, just sending good energy...maybe sometimes that's all we can do?)
