More Little Lights in the Dark – My Son, Starbucks, and Self Care Sunday.

On 14th Apr 2025 By Absurd RhioIn Little lights in the dark2 Comments

This week was hard — full of cluster headaches, grief, and emotional crashes. But in the middle of all that were tiny moments that helped me stay: coffee with my son, a moonstone necklace, a bear in a towel, and a bath that looked like the universe. Little lights in the dark.

Grief blogging, ADHD chaos, ED recovery, and Cyberpunk 2077 outbursts. Sometimes Biscoff. Always feelings.
