SavvySpoons - Living a life of limited spell slots.

Misty rants about the political whining of the hypocrites who are okay silencing one group but think the other deserves different treatment. Short, sweet, a little swearing. 

Abled people struggle with the best way to "help" disabled friends and family. Here are a few ideas based on my experiences as a person with invisible chronic conditions that make it difficult for me to navigate the "normal" world.

I'm not doing so hot on the keeping it together front. My German farmer ancestors are rolling over in their graves at my lack of stoicism but I decided to talk about it with you. The world. Or, you know, the 9-10 of you who listen to me. So join in, settle down, and share in some not okay action. 

Misty is checking in from a high pain day and talks about trigeminal neuraligia and the unintended side effects of supplements. 

Over the sounds of soothing ocean waves Misty talks about birth, raising a teenager, the importance of apologies, and how no one is perfect. #parenting #asmr #chronicillness #chronicpain #spoons #teens #parentingteens #guide 

A talk about our cultural obsession with avoiding grey areas, how we seem to have forgotten that we are indeed supposed to oppose people who do the wrong thing, and her new belief that all her stomach issues are caused by a tummy wombat. Starting a new tradition Misty ends the episode with a short mediation intended to touch base with the part of your body currently giving you the biggest trouble right now. Campfire sounds and snoring dogs in the background, a calming ASMR experience. 

Misty talks about healing, thrift store shopping, focus issues, and more while working on a paper lamp project. Sounds of paper cutting in the background accompany the podcast. 

Misty discusses an experiment in acting like a right-wing gunslinging debater, getting vaccinated, the Derek Chauvin trial, and the mouthiness of teens.

Have you ever heard that our bodies carry the memory of past trauma?

Misty shares a story from her past as a rite of healing, or maybe a funeral for her past self, in this emotional episode. 

Misty discusses gun control, food issues, the Boy who harnessed the wind, and recovering from surgery in this episode.
