Made some soup today. My brother brought us some stuff from his garden, squash, eggplants, tomatoes. I stir fried the squash with some spices until it was soft, then used a hand mixer to blend it into puree. I transferred that to the crock pot on low. Then I sauteed eggplant, onion, peppers, tomatoes, okra, garlic, and seasoning. I added that to the crock pot. Then I added a can of chicken broth and some spicy v8. Let it simmer all day.
I served it with some naan bread and cheese.
It was very filling and tasty.

Ever since I stopped doing therapy because of insurance, I've been feeling that old tense and irritable sense of anxiety and stress. I hate that. I was making so many strides and changes during therapy, my therapist would acknowledge all of my progress and accomplishments, and I miss that reassurance. Today I thought about it, and I made those changes! She would always tell me that I chose to...
