I could use a helping hand. After a troublesome period of life I'm trying to get back on my feet in a new city but could use a little boost with forward costs. Please consider supporting. Any little bit counts.

So I am contemplating possibly moving to Connecticut for a fresh start. I live in Boston currently, and don’t get me wrong. Boston has great resources for the blind and visually impaired community as well as other communities for different disabilities. As much as I like Boston and I love my current location, after all, I’m two bucks from Fenway Park, I’m just not happy here. So I have decided to look into possibly moving to Connecticut. If anyone knows of any resources I can grab a hold of as far as planning a move to Connecticut goes that would be great. The two main things I need to do right now are find a place to live, and I’m looking at getting involved with the American council for the blind in the state of Connecticut, I know they have a chapter somewhere. But I need a life change. #Connecticut #Moving#Fediverse #StartingOver#ACB#Depression #Hope #Healing.#Wellness.

Ashley O'Sullivan, a librarian burdened by Catholic guilt and repression, secretly seeks connection on lesbian dating apps while haunted by memories of her teenage lesbian encounter with Bree Donovan. An encounter with the provocative Velvet Vixen forces Ashley to confront her discomfort with transactional intimacy.

This sparks an unexpected journey when she meets Kesha—a bold, African American artist who becomes her anchor in a vibrant queer community. As Ashley rebuilds her life amidst chosen family and newfound confidence, she must grapple with her traumatic religious past and estranged parents. The story charts Ashley's transformation from an invisible "library mouse" to a woman discovering sanctuary in defiant self-acceptance and authentic lesbian love.

I’m trying to get back into writing, which is a thing I haven’t done in years. At the moment, I’ve not managed to get a good writing routine down, but at least I’ve started a lot of different things.

My hope is that I’ll get a routine going so that it is more productive to write. Hopefully build up my endurance so I’m writing more than a thousand words at a time.

Hey Mastodon!

So I'm brand new here, but an elder internet user. After turning 54 I decided to go back to what I love after nearly a decade of advocacy work. A few of my peers suggested making an account, so here I am. Hope all y'all are doing well and staying safe.

Long Reads: My Lost Decade

This begins my personal blog where I’ll put things I’d like to remember. I have a pretty shitty memory as it is, so as I piece everything together I hope to be able to hold on to it for a long time to come instead of being scared it will just disappear one day.

By the title you can probably gather that I feel I’m coming out of a lost decade. This post will be both about that decade and also a bit of a general introduction to me as a person. It’s my one year anniversary where I work and that means that after July I’ll officially be in my longest position I’ve ever held. My boss speaks highly of me. I’ve accidentally made myself an important part of the team. Things are going well there.

Yeah, I hate this. Please don't say anything to him, if you see this. I informed already, and we are working out the details.
