I got asked how I was feeling at the gym the other day and I said “oh I’m feeling” He Followed with “but how are you doing?” I said I don’t feel like talking about it. He got off his machine and gave me a hug. Who knew that’s what I really needed? 🥲

Well, you’ll absolutely love me book, Losing Sight coming Feb 2025 about a woman who needs glasses and some interesting things happen. Because glasses are our superpower 😉 Link in Bio :)

It’s okay to take off your glasses once you feel you’ve seen enough for the day.

@melanatedreader My nerves are still shot and I read it 2 or 3 years ago. I don’t think my nervous system can handle a reread right now. It was too close to real life. 😭
