My SIL asked me "how we're doing" in #WarRavagedPortland while I was working on this new #spoonie #comic #journal. Meanwhile we're teaching our kids to value truth and community.

Had a blast exploring #rosecitycomiccon last weekend (last weekend? was it?) and getting to know @ohhhhdoodles IRL with our apparently highly successful presentation! Also totoro. I would like totoro to live in my office for when I need a hug. He was probably germy but #worthit.

the stunning conclusion to my #journal #comic about FINDING MEDS is now live! MORE PHONE CALLS!!! You'll be riveted. It probably makes sense without the tops and bottoms bits.

New #spoonie #parent #journal #comic up at buymeacoffee.com/sarahesteinberg/spoonie-parent-journal-finding-meds-part-1 if you wanna see the tops and bottoms of the pages :)

Been mad busy summer parenting, trying some new meds, enjoying life, but finally got another #spoonie parent journal #comic going.

No transcript yet, coming soon. My kid's pal just showed up so maybe really soon :)

This one's about how much TIIIIIME it takes to be disabled / chronically ill. I spent almost my entire energy last week trying to fill a medication. One of many I take- and one that, until I ran out, was giving me relief from after-lunch 2-hr blackout naps. I journaled it before the whole thing resolved I guess, so I'll have to conclude it.

Please forgive the rougher style - my sketches were good enough I didn't want to fuss with digital and also wanted to play with some new greyscale markers. Thanks for reading.

Went to the Oregon Ren Faire (really it's a fantasy con outside which, yes please) as approximately a hobbit. My kid wanted to know what I was and I said "a mom who got too fat for last year's dress and spent all week making her kid's outfit so forgot to prep" lol

New Spoonie #Parent Journal #comic... about... THE WAYSIDE.
"Falling by the wayside" is a kind of pretty phrase.
#LongCovid is not pretty.

Read today about how the inside of my arteries are probably necrotic (dead and rotting). I mean you don't want this.

POST 2

I'm in a #mecfs energy deficit that started in late April and I don't know how to crawl back without dropping things that feel undroppable. A new #Spoonie #Parent #Journal #comic about pacing and how little #parenting moments put me in an energy hole.

Crops aren't working right? I'm too tired to deal with this nonsense. Full comics here: https://sarahesteinberg.com/spoonie-parent-ep-5-pacing-without-penny
