Took a little time today to decompress. Went to the beach in Lincoln City with Randy and our pug Ianto. It was nice getting away for a few hours and letting the ocean air take away some of the stress from the last week.

I’m still dealing with the fallout from last Wednesday, I don’t expect that’s going to go away overnight, but I’m doing the things I need to do to make myself better.

For now, I’m trying to stay away from the news (especially anything having to do with the orange buffoon in the Oval Office), and trying to do better at expressing my feelings when I’m having anxiety.
