The girl with the question mark on her wrist
2008-2009 The divorce was final. Not sure if the paperwork had gone through yet but my dad was definitely remarried and I’m now living with him, his wife and her two kids all under one roof. My baby sister was born and now I had this new family. As a 19 year old teenager I didn’t really grasp it all. This is sort of a trend with me that I’m noticing. I don’t feel things.

Routine
As an adult, sleep is an essential medicine for our bones. At night, I have the hardest time winding down. It began in my childhood, my parents never had us on a sleep schedule or bedtime so to speak, like the norms. I’ve always crashed wherever, whenever, whether it was the couch or my parents bed, I was never in my own bed. I had a huge fear of the dark which has carried into my adulthood. Yes, that’s correct, I still have a fear of the dark. Total blackness actually keeps my mind racing more than relaxing. My heart will actually beat out of my chest and anxiety will surface.

Something Different
Well first off, I’ve never painted a thing in my life. Okay, that's not completely true, but like a serious thing, a good thing, a thing that people would buy -until now. On August 11, 2019, I was cleaning out a closet in the house that I was renting with my ill mother. Life was rough as we knew it. I fumbled upon a paint set, a cheap-y paint set of just a few acrylic colors and some paint brushes along with an empty canvas. My mother always liked to try new hobbies. In fact, she would jump from one obsession to the next. If she would find an interest in something, she would obsess over it and dream it to the top. It went from sewing, to learning how to play the violin, to the piano, then guitar- pretty much any instrument. The list would go on, drawing, writing, cochetting, etc.
