Now *this* Is A Day I Can Get Behind! For Introverts, Recharging Our Batteries Isn't A Luxury; It's A

Maybe this explains why I like them so much myself.

When I was little I used to be afraid of storms. I guess now I like them because it’s nice to see something that displays how I feel on the inside and can’t explain.

Literally me, right now. https://www.instagram.com/p/BrvCsfMAdcAv0CNG-p3HejTfzSr2pbF9LMMxXc0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1jm3q0j9812it

Some Avengers memes just in time for tonight. Don't worry, they are spoiler-free. And funny and/or sad. #spoilerfree #assemblealready https://www.instagram.com/p/BwsJx3CB47pAvcNNgp_DQA-mLE3RDukWbFbTtA0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ers9iu769mhb

Before the beginning of last year, I came across an idea about documenting positive experiences over a year by jotting down little notes of 'Good Things' that take place, so that at a future point, you can look back, maybe when you need to see the positives, or to gain perspective. I call the various things I have to deal with my "bag of hammers". (Not my idea. I stole it from Michael J. Fox.) We all carry one of these bags around with us; it's just the contents that differ between each of us. At the moment, my bag of hammers is heavier than usual, and I thought this would be a good time to review my list of 'Good Things', and begin anew. I wanted to share this in case any of you like the idea and wanted to try it out yourself. And to say out loud that it's ok to talk about the things in each of our bags of hammers, and ok for us to have to carry them. As I look through my list from last year, I am strengthened, and am able to find gratitude for all of the things, large and small that I have to be thankful for. #practicinggratitudehelps #affirmationshelp #itsoktoneedhelp https://www.instagram.com/p/BtN_menBhJBOikj480tO2ukiSYpYTl452ZpBaI0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=dtiwvfuh10hl

Squee. That is all.

#What is happening

Who you vote for is no one's business but your own. But it only takes a few minutes to exercise a privilege so many people in the world are denied. And if you don't vote, you don't get to complain about whatever government gets formed tonight, imo. #election2019 #canadavotes #dontvotedontbitch https://www.instagram.com/p/B35HWTRB56ZTDlK0xNA6tpAPX1R8ts5O8LB66o0/?igshid=4814v1acqtpo

Little Friday afternoon office rivalry where we're being asked to choose between one great thing and ear-garbage. I chose not to vote but instead let Grumpy Cat speak for me. https://www.instagram.com/p/BrYSgA3gXxO5z8-wjckjY5h_BN6hAEBDgMFQ8k0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1aqy6ttedskgk
