the leaves have begun in earnest. and i was told where to put the EYE…. While split back stitching, (Jude) i pricked my finger but ignored it until i suddenly saw the blood coming through. used the stiff Inktense brush and got most of it gone. it's still damp so will see, when it dries. It speaks of impatience. and maybe that's good to have here…., this Reference Cloth.
the hot water heater has been on the blink for about almost 2 weeks. Alyssia has tried some things. Nada. But she also has had no Spoons. Google spoons lupus it will take you to Living with Chronic Disease Spoon Theory. She has had no spoons.
But tonight she did and she worked away at it, scraping and undoing panels and using a car vac sucking out all manner of debris from OutSide. still no. but just going, she came in and under the sink here, InSide is a little motherboard that was blinking and making a small barely audible alert sound and she photographed it from all angles, in case, and then meticulously cleaned all its tiny parts. This, all about an hour and a half. It worked. OH EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee The heater burst into full function and there was HOT WATER and i WASHED MY HAIR. I WASHED MY HAIR. I had felt like my head was rotting.. I sit here typing this, the towel wrapped around and oh JOY. just so much oh JOY. For this. For Her. If anyone ever asks you, who have you heard of that is ploddingly BRILLIANT and So Given to the Just Going, Please. Please tell them her. Alyssia Daniel Fortune Ortiz. She wants back her birth name…sans the Ortiz. I sit and breathe. My hair. Tomorrow, my whole self.
