Heather OC: Week 41 of 208

Nov 16, 2025
1 min read

Mental Load


Invisible torture that rules

Each day. Mother must

Make things move. Missed


Appointments and the other

Unacceptables. Who can sleep

In all this chaos? Need air


Supply space cowboy

Junkie cookie snacks and

Carbon monoxide. Vacuum


Up cat fur and dog —

Walk. Wake. Shop.

Fill stockings and run them.


Who can breath or sit down

To read a book or look.

Remember breakfast nook


Puzzles and how your

Nana fed you there.
