Hurricane María

Day 25 after it hit Puerto Rico. Still no electricity; water sometimes (if you're lucky); data unreliable. Stores are empty, lines are normal. I forgot what it's like to drive with traffic lights and street lights; the ones that weren't ripped off by the wind can't be turned on.

So much destruction everywhere; Trump insulting us repeatedly. I'm sad and outraged for my country.

However I feel grateful for all the help and kindness shown towards us by people in the USA and around the world. Thank you.

Over and out.

I am in NC and I am having the time of my life. I am so happy

On my way to work this morning, my car was hit by a big truck

which wrecked the car, and the driver, who was on the phone, took off, while witnesses ran to see if I was okay. I'm a little tired

A long way to go, but every little step helps on (an improving) #lowselfesteem, and today is a #restday so.. ☀️

Being able to smile a smile that isn’t forced or fake is something I have missed for years now, but today was a great day, lots of things going the right way 😁✌🏼️

Okay,

Ill be leaving for my holidays in France, Italy, Switzerland and Germany tomorrow, and I am very much looking forward to it all. Hiking in the Alps, wine tasting in Provence, staying at the great vacation house, and screaming my lungs out on Mont Ventoux when the Tour de France riders do their best on the bald mountain. And I will also be going with my cousin, who has started eating again after (secretly?) fighting for years, and I couldn’t ask for a better start
