Tonight my daughter borrowed my car & it's having "critical error" messages and it has to be towed. I cannot Afford car problems. 😭 001
Kanlea @kanlea.bsky.social · 19/02/2026As you can tell from my last few posts, I'm having a Rough day in an already difficult time. I could Really use time at the studio.

Kanlea @kanlea.bsky.social · 19/02/2026And minutes before that I found out a dog I've been fostering for months was turned down again. 5 potential adopters cancelled meeting her. 1 met her and passed. She deserves a good home and I'm feeling like such a failure all around. 000
Kanlea @kanlea.bsky.social · 19/02/2026Found out that I Don't get a second interview for the position I've been covering since October. It's more interesting than my real position and pays more so I really wanted/needed it. The way life has been going I'm almost not surprised. I'm so Tired of knowing it's going to keep getting harder. 100

Kanlea @kanlea.bsky.social · 22/12/2025Any time I participate in a secret Santa type thing online where you're encouraged to connect with your partner(s) on social media I get Crickets. If not for tracking I would have no idea it even arrived. And it's super disappointing. Like do they hate what I sent?! Am I really bad at this?? 😭 010
Kanlea @kanlea.bsky.social · 08/12/2025Taskmaster live tickets acquired! Only one of our group got the presale email but thankfully she didn't hesitate and snagged some tickets for us. We're basically nosebleeds but we'll be there. It's been Rough for us all and we needed this win. ❤️ 130
Kanlea @kanlea.bsky.social · 02/12/2025My oxygen levels have not been great tonight. In the 70s standing, 80s sitting, 90s laying down. I'm not sick and didn't do anything strenuous, I went to jury duty (not selected thankfully) then home for a nap. Why does my body hate me?! 😭 010
Kanlea @kanlea.bsky.social · 11/11/2025I don't listen to country anymore but sometimes it's all that helps. Like today. I felt ready to implode but unable to cry or breathe or do anything. Except sit in my car and sing my heart out to some great 90s female country. Music Therapy today included Strawberry Wine and Independence Day. 030
Kanlea @kanlea.bsky.social · 22/10/2025I've been doing Rover since 2018. A month ago a dog broke out of the crate she was in for her safety while I was gone for 4hrs and managed to hurt herself. It led to me being kicked off the platform. That's 2500/month I need to get by so I'm freaking out. I don't know how I'm going to make it now 😭 110
Kanlea @kanlea.bsky.social · 18/10/2025A little over a week ago a cute little cat walked in our back door like he was sure he lived here. He is so sweet and loving but somehow we've had no luck looking for his family (posted multiple places and flyers printed). He might be right about living here now. 020

Kanlea @kanlea.bsky.social · 30/08/2025Pottery time is the best time. Today was my first time throwing with a throwing gauge. They aren't perfectly identical but that's okay.

Kanlea @kanlea.bsky.social · 27/07/2025I got a small pottery wheel recently and today was the first time I was able to use it. Look at these little vases I made! The rims are a little uneven but I'm pretty happy with my first attempts. 031
Kanlea @kanlea.bsky.social · 14/07/2025I gave away a lot pottery today. I didn't realize I had so much but 26 pieces found new homes. I didn't really expect people to want it but I'm so glad they seemed to like it. I do worry they felt obligated to take stuff or to take more than they wanted but I Hope they're happy with their choices. 010
Kanlea @kanlea.bsky.social · 05/07/2025I have not been doing well the last few days. Getting a little high and watching the Jurassic Park movies with my cat was the right choice for tonight. And now midnight pizza but sadly no popsicles except that one that was like a slushy. 000
Kanlea @kanlea.bsky.social · 05/07/2025I bought Pedialyte popsicles today and I am so bummed that they are not frozen yet. All I want is a popsicle and I'm perpetually dehydrated so it's a win-win. Or it would be if they were frozen. 000
Kanlea @kanlea.bsky.social · 02/07/2025Just had to tell my neighbor that somebody running the stop sign in front of our homes hit their dog that got out. It was only a matter of time before someone got hurt but anytime I complain to Denver and ask what we can do about people running this stop sign it gets shrugged off. I hate this. 100

Kanlea @kanlea.bsky.social · 26/05/2025Had close friend drama in 2021 that put me in an unsafe place. Another friend was gaslighting me about what was happening but I hadn't accepted that yet.

Kanlea @kanlea.bsky.social · 18/05/2025My kid is 18 and graduating this week. They're spreading their wings a bit so was out late and didn't come home.
