I hate that SEPTember OCTOber NOVember and DECember arenāt the 7th, 8th, 9th, and 10th months.

good news!
we need the opposite of nihilism. Everything matters.
im not talking about anxiety im saying every piece of art you draw adds to the world. im saying the lone bumblebee pollinating flowers is important. im saying to appreciate peopleās smiles and small charming mannerisms. to know everything else has the right to exist and be part of the world.
and on the other side of the coin, iām saying even friendly banter can hit someoneās insecurity. that even something small can be hurtful so always try to be considerate.Ā
There is an old belief in Serbian villages and small towns that certain pumpkins (and watermelons), when left outside during a full moon, will turn in to a vampire.
Happy Halloween, everyone!

Helping a lost friend
I want to tell yāall a story about supporting and loving your partner, starring my amazing wife.
Iāve mentioned before that I had an eating disorder for many years, and though I consider myself ārecoveredā there are aspects of my disorder that I still struggle with today ā being quite a bit heavier than my wife is one of them.
When my wife and I moved in together back when we were still girlfriends, I was at my skinniest. She used to pick me up all the time and lift me off the ground, and Iād laugh and kick out my legsĀ ācause I was just delighted to have her holding me.
But I started gaining weight as I went through recovery, and where once we were pretty close in size, I began to get bigger. And bigger. And bigger. And she remained her naturally petite self. I began to almost dread when sheād try to pick me up, sure that this time she wouldnāt be able to get me off the ground.
But every time, even if I protested, sheād lift me up and say something like: āSee, youāre not so big that I canāt lift you!ā
And one time I just blurted out: āBut someday Iām going to be so fat you wonāt be able to.ā
She looked me dead in the eye and said: āNo you wonāt. Because if that ever happens, Iāll start working out.ā
It was the best possible thing she could have said to me, because she wasnāt saying I wasnāt going to get fat ā neither of us knew that for sure. She was just saying that I was never going to beĀ ātoo fatā for her.
And every time I worry about getting bigger, I remember that Iāll never be so big that she canāt lift me, because baby knows how much I love being held, and sheāll change her own habits to ensure that I never feel ātoo bigā or ātoo heavyā because in her eyes Iāll never be ātooā anything.
Anyway, thereās a moral to this story: Find yourself a partner who will never consider you an excess. You should never be ātoo muchā to someone who loves you ā too big, too loud, too passionate, too awkward, whatever your ātooā happens to be. And even as you change and grow (in my case, literally), the right person will be there through the changes, to tell you that youāre always just right for them.

October Self-care!
Hereās a short list of comforting activities to do this October! These range from basic self-care to luxurious so there should be something for everyone.
- snuggle up with blankets and pillows
- try a new recipe, even if itās just adding spices to your hot chocolate
- pick your own pumpkin (bonus for supporting local growers!)
- journal, particularly gratitude journaling if you suffer from seasonal depression
- stay hydrated!
- eat! trying a new dinner idea once a week is a good way to keep food interesting if you have the money.
- go on an autumn stroll (keep cosy if itās cold out and pre-plan an accessible route if you need to)
- write a list of things you need to do this month and challenge yourself to tick at least ½ off
- set yourself achievable goals
- read a scary or autumn-yĀ book
- try to have at least one day completely off your phone even if this is broken up into hour-long blocks across the month
- have a candle-lit bubblebath or a luxurious shower
- invest in light therapy if the darker months get you down
- change your bedcovers or buy new seasonal ones
- try a new craft such as knitting
- change your phone background
