The Art Of The Crone

I can't tell you how many times over the last 30+ years I've had to "Get up Trinity!" myself. 

Major depressive disorder is difficult, but it is manageable. I've managed to keep myself off medication's for the last 25 years. 

FYI. There's nothing wrong with medications. For some people they are extremely helpful and a true lifesaver. They just weren't the way I needed to go. 

Through education, self-care, exercise, spiritual pursuits, and understanding I've managed. It hasn't been easy, but I've managed. 

Mood disorders are no joke. Please take care of yourself and search for the answers that work for you.... but above all, keep moving! Get up Trinity! Keep moving!

"For though a righteous man falls seven times, he rises again, but the wicked are brought down by calamity." -Proverbs 24:16"GET. .. UP!"-Trinity, The Matrix

Got my morning workout in. Shoveled dirt and finished filling and topping off all of the beds.

I thought i was done but then I remembered I have two more 1X2x10 foot beds I still need to put together and fill. 🤦🏻

At least what I have constructed is ready for planting.

Now it's time to go cool off. My AC is out and they aren't coming until Monday to fix it so it's time to go find something cool to do.

It's getting warmer and greenery is popping up everywhere. I moved some more dirt and almost all of the beds are ready to be planted, but you can't fool me… I know we will get a cold snap mid March so I will not be planting any seeds outside until mid April.

There's still work to be done, but at least the beds are just about ready for planting.

Often times the universe shows you that you're on the right track with your spiritual protocol by reinforcing your own intentions and sometimes that reinforcement seems a little uncomfortable at first. 

It can often look like difficulty or a blockage that needs to be fixed but in fact, it's exactly the reinforcement you need. 

Right now, my TV isn't working, the games on my phone don't work, I can't recline and just nap because I get vertigo if I lean back and intermittent fasting, which used to be extremely difficult for me, has become super easy for some reason.

Sometimes you just need to pay attention and realize that those things that are broken or blocked are broken and blocked for your own benefit. Embrace it.

The best thing I've done so far this year is limit random social media scrolling to 10 minutes a day. 

If it says "sponsored" I keep scrolling.
If it is AI I keep scrolling.
If it insults my intelligence or negates common decency, I keep scrolling. 
If it insinuates that it's one product that will cure all of my ills, I keep scrolling...even if its natural!

Yes, I use the Internet to shop and do research but as far as social media is concerned if it's got any form of AI, sales, or is just plain stupid, I move on. I've got 10 minutes to be entertained or learn something and if I'm not, the phone gets shut off. 

According to insights my posts reach anywhere from 2 to 40 people. So if you're seeing this, I suppose it's something you needed to hear.

Now, if you'll excuse me, it's time to go back outside and grow some food.

I've been struggling with a little vertigo for the last couple of days, but the garden is coming along. There's not much to see yet because it's still winter.

Can't plant anything in the ground until after April 15 because we always get frost in March but I have seedlings going inside.

Soon this will be very pretty neat and full of vegetables.
