Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 16hToday is another day where my memory fails + I have to let go of certainty. Forgot a place changed its name, and is in a different town than I remember. Which would be fine but I communicated the wrong info to a doctor. Can't even feel embarrassed anymore; I've been too sick to expect continuity. 000
Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 20hOh, I do like the reasons I came up for a culture to bury their powerful artifacts... Still has nothing to do with the world building I need to write this other character though. 🙄 I forgot how much discipline writing requires. The brain wants to be entertained, but the story needs structure. 000
Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 23hMusing on world building today. I'm unwilling to write this character until I decide how the culture is represented when formal... And maybe the Hellcat universe isn't best for this idea. Anything set in the US (even fantasy US) is dead/stripped of culture, everything bastardized, commercialized 100
Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 01/10/2026Well the knee pain has somehow set off the sciatica pain again, but also a nerve in my right elbow is also going numb? Maybe I need more magnesium... 000
Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 01/10/2026Walked maybe 20 feet to the garage and back and now my knee has decided it's in pain and I have to hobble. This damn body. Didn't do anything to it. Didn't trip, twist, knock into anything, but my knee has decided it can't handle the weight of walking w/o pain. The hypermobility did something. 000
Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 01/10/2026Trying to get a feel of what to expect going forward. Finished a short story—I can complete things, although quality is iffy. I'm tired. Like bone weary tired + I don't know why. Maybe it's part of the refeeding. I feel like all I'm doing is eating, but I'm not sure it's enough calories yet. 100
Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 30/09/2026Watching my sweet Harleybug whip around the chipmunk corpse. 😔 All of them are going to need flea treatment, the entire house hit with enzyme cleaner, but only once she grows tired with her prey. I'm hoping Arcane will eat the damn thing. The kittens don't seem to understand their kills are food. 🙄 000
Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 30/09/2026Thankfully I still have lidocaine from the last time my sciatica flared, but I either used way too much this time, or not eating has really messed up my body's resilience to pain, cuz I've been knocked out for hours. I have to grocery shop today... Maybe I can do an order for pickup... 000

Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 30/09/2026Tripped over something displaced by the cats running around chasing the chipmunk. Thought I hurt my foot, might have instead seriously fucked up my back. Like a hot knife going through my lower back on one side. 😔 100
Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 29/09/2026When I saw all 3 cats on the porch, Harleybug w/ a giant chipmunk in her jaws, I questioned locking them out there since the weather was getting cold. If only I had anticipated that Harley would bring the damn thing into the bedroom and RELEASE it so that they could play. 😩 110
Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 29/09/2026The DTA put my retro in my account a little before noon. The anger hasn't faded. It's the 29th of a 30 day month + they just gave me my foodstamps today. I'm supposed to let this go + move the fuck on, but they broke me. The enamel is disintegrating off my teeth from malnutrition + I'm still angry. 100
Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 29/09/2026Another day of fuck the poor + disabled from the Massachusetts's Department of Transitional Food Assistance. Need to eat this month? Nope. They can't figure out how to fix anything, especially their own mistakes, w/in a month's time. It would be laughable if it wasn't so fucking devastating. 001
Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 29/09/2026Monday has come + gone, yet still no retro foodstamps added to the account. Pretty sure these people lied to my face AGAIN. I should have started w/ a lawyer the second they closed my account due to their inaction. But finding a lawyer to take on this for free isn't easy. I'm fucking exhausted. 000
Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 28/09/2026Ffs, I think my heat intolerance is being triggered by digestion. 🙄 This ridiculous body. 010
Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 28/09/2026DTA sent out a letter about the COLA adjustment, calculating based on the emergency amount, not the verified amount I'm supposed to get. So, what, did they decide from me speaking up that they're just removing my foodstamps permanently now? Incompetence is indistinguishable from maliciousness. 000
Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 28/09/2026I swear eating more leaves me feeling weaker, but I think that's the fatigue of digestion. Maybe also less adrenaline jolting through me from low blood sugar... 000

Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 27/09/2026This month has forced me to look at calories instead of my default of just trying to eat MORE in amount + frequency since months of being bedbound. Apparently a 120 calorie yogurt feels like a meal, but isn't helping anything. Tired of basic things being needlessly difficult... but that's life. 100
Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 27/09/2026Every time the orange felon pulls some new shit, the Internet reminds me that most Americans have no clue that the Judicial Branch is enforced by the Executive Branch + holds no ability to do shit if our corrupt Executive Branch says nope to our laws.

Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 25/09/2026My entire body is shaking so bad, I can't tell if it's anger or this conversation with the DTA has physically harmed me after not eating for so long. Waiting on their supervisor. It's going to be a miracle to solve this w/o a lawyer. They have deliberately done things in a way to hide fault. 110
Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 25/09/2026This is why the DTA closed my account when they ran out the clock on receiving my information but not calling to interview. It was to make it look like I was at fault starting a new case, not them closing my case. They don't want to pay labor + benefits when recertifying, they just want me to die. 000
Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 25/09/2026Just had a DTA receptionist call to harass me telling me "there's always a reason—I don't know what it is" and that "systems don't break—they absolutely do; systems break all the time otherwise you've designed a system to kill the poor" while letting me know they can't help, someone else must call. 100
Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 25/09/2026Worked at it, ate through the night + was able to get about 1200 calories in me. Better than my 400 average. Took 6 hours for "dinner", but I got it down. I might need those high calorie drinks for a bit, once foodstamps come in. Digestion has slowed + every small meal had me wanting to sleep. 000
Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 25/09/2026Fleshed out/edited about 6,500 words on the "easy care" monitor that's too bright for my eyes. There's definitely a feeling of fatigue + dryness to my eyes I don't get w/ the dimmer monitor, but it's nothing like the pain before the new glasses. Still won't code on this monitor, but writing passes. 000

Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 24/09/2026Slept through breakfast. Doesn't bode well for getting food in me. I've been refeeding since the chronic fatigue got better, but it's been a constant struggle. The MCAS irritates the entire gut, the SIBO messed digestion up + the stress of this food stamp thing has me back to start w/ calories. 110
Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 24/09/2026Apparently not been getting my thyroid meds this week. Tried to renew last week, the automated line refused to request a refill, and in my not eating state I completely forgot to call the pharmacy when they're open. This just snowballs so quickly. I don't know how many days I e missed. Too many. 000
Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 23/09/2026Sitting in a daze, wanting to write. My brain can't focus though, so writing feels like an exercise in futility. Even working on a fanfic is going to need a complete edit to fix sentence structure + tenses + all the things my brain can't think about atm. I can't even follow TV. 010

Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 23/09/2026As expected, today the DTA informed me of their decision digitally, nowhere explaining how, because of their lack of action, I have to live off of 1/6th of the food I normally get when they promised to fix it. They lie. Sicker today than yesterday. Got a meal in + it drained me. I hate refeeding. 100
Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 23/09/2026Thinking of the first memories of my life, my father beating the shit out of me so he could feel like he had control over his children + himself. I'm sick of this world that needs to destroy the vulnerable so weak people feel strong. This month has broken me + it's not done. I'm so fucking tired. 000
Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 23/09/2026I might be dehydrated. The electrolyte drinks are also paid for by food stamps + I'm trying to conserve them to last. If this fucks up my dysautonomia, I'm going to be furious. 000
Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 22/09/2026Shaking today. Think it's another lie in bed until tomorrow day. 000
Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 22/09/2026I'm going to lose my fucking shit. The DTA has decided to move me into CAP after telling me to submit my medical expenses when CAP literally pays LESS for medical expenses. This just feels like harassment for being disabled at this point. Also not refunding me for this month even tho they fucked up. 100
Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 22/09/2026Running on empty. Got some sleep after a yogurt—lack of food seems to be the sleep problem. Something has changed where after over a week receiving them + phone calls the DTA claims they input my verification documents, but still no food stamps, so nothing has changed. Eyes feel okay, at least. 000
Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 21/09/2026I'm in the stage where clawing out of this grave feels like punishment. Vacuumed 5 feet of the floor to get dust bunnies + the cat immediately pissed everywhere. Couldn't figure out why my Internet hosting bill didn't go thru; the card expired July. Every little thing demands everything of me. 000
Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 21/09/2026Edited about 6.5 scenes I was writing on my phone last week on the laptop today. Included some html coding/editing + fine detail editing of dialogue tags. My eyes are currently unhappy, but it's also late. I won't know until hours into tomorrow if the delayed eye strain symptoms will show up or not. 010
Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 21/09/2026Don't want to get my hopes up or anything, but I haven't had a slowdown since the new glasses. I was having them daily again. I know the vision issues were exhausting, causing pain, but could they have been a strain on my nervous system enough to trigger the dysautonia? It's an interesting theory. 000
Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 20/09/20263 hours of sleep. The entire week I've been averaging around 4. No clue why. It's either a supplement catching up, or the lack of food waiting on the DTA to do the bare fucking minimum of their job. I'm jolting at every noise, unable to switch into sleep. My adrenals got better —maybe not anymore. 000
Glass Io (aka Sadie Sins) @sadiesinsbooks.com · 20/09/2026Music sounds so much better today. No background eye pain. What a difference.
