I was chatting with one of my favourite people today and the topic of work came up. I realised I've never talked about it very openly here, but I am invisibly disabled, and being able to do this work keeps my spirit alive. 🩷
♿ Firstly, for a long time I was unable to work (or leave the house, even), so I'm grateful that I've gotten to a place where my body can do as much as it does. There are still long stretches where the fatigue and pain that I experience mean that after work, I don't have anything left 'for me' and all I can do is rest at home. ⚰️
This is where I'm grateful. ✨
I'm grateful that I can do work that I adore, because it means that when there's no energy left at the end of the day or week, I've still been enjoying a creative life that sustains me and I know that I've made a positive impact somewhere in my community.
🐇 the bunnies were mostly for attention, sorry, but they are the current sap of my additional energy. One of my cats keeps just bringing live bunnies into the house, so if you know anyone who can build a good catio, let me know. They can't be released because they're hybrids... 💔
