I went on a drive yesterday and ended up at a cemetery. I’ve never just ended up somewhere like that before.

I needed to cry and I just couldn’t get there. My own stuff felt too slippery to grab onto. So I walked around and started looking at the graves and thinking about the stories of those strangers. The little plastic flowers someone thought to bring. A photo laminated and zip-tied to a headstone. Fresh mulch around a stone that means somebody was just here, somebody who still comes, somebody who hasn’t stopped.

You start feeling for them. And then suddenly you’re feeling for yourself too. And then you’re ugly crying in a cemetery and nobody says a word or bats an eye because it’s a cemetery.

I felt so much better after.

If you’re someone who has a hard time feeling your own feelings, you are not alone in that. I am you. And apparently I end up at cemeteries now.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ (sad music helps too)

I love a fidget. They are fun! But they are deeper than that. 

When your hands won’t stay still, that’s not distraction or a bad habit. It’s actually your nervous system trying to find its way back to regulated sensory input through the hands is a legitimate grounding strategy, which is why I keep a little collection on my coffee table at all times 

This acupressure roller keeps being the one that gets reached for and I get it because it’s become my new favorite too and not just because sage green is basically my color( but that part is fun too.)

Partnering with @onoroller on their new color launch! Link in bio if you need one for your purse, desk, or car. Your nervous system goes everywhere you do! #ad #onopartner #duneandsageono
Nothing disregulates my nervous system faster than this. 

May is not a month. It’s a second job with a dress code, two separate specific snack and gift requirements, and a Ronald Reagan costume due on the 14th. Solidarity to every elementary school parent white-knuckling it through the next three weeks. 🫡
