I start my mornnigs hopeful and enthusiastic about my productivity durnign the day, my impending sense of accomplishment. A few hours later, i begin to scale back my expectations. i decide my to-do list covers the next 2 or 3 days. Time passes. Unexpected things happen. i had something due by 1:00 today. It was … Continue reading Trudging along

Work Day
Working at home, on the home, that is. Evacuation is over. We're home and all is well. Yay!! Feeling a bit less pouty, more likely to be snippy. And that's ok.
Here we go again…
This is not news to me: “Repressed and suppressed feelings require counter-energy to keep them submerged. It takes energy to hold down our feelings. As these feelings are relinquished, the energy that had been holding down the negativity is now freed for constructive uses.” ― David R. Hawkins, Letting Go: The Pathway of Surrender Neither … Continue reading Here we go again…
Ridiculousness
So now i'm all pouty because I'm here by myself. MP left for breakfast this morning and never came back (again. Just like yesterday.) He did message me a couple of times. But when i asked about his dinner plans, he told me and didn't ask me if i wanted to come too. Well, fine. … Continue reading Ridiculousness
Wrong Turn
It seems like I am living my life on other people's agendas. And making the wrong decision every time I hit a fork in the road. Not that there have been any disastrous consequences, just not ever quite flowing. Example - yesterday, i planned to get my nails done.

But. Nobody is making me do … Continue reading The Storm Within?

Today’s Not Really News…
Last night, i had a chance to do some literal self-care - you know, epiladied my legs, put a ton of lotion on my feet. You wouldn't think that was something one needed to leave town to do. i have not been taking care of myself. This man i've been chatting with on fetlife asked … Continue reading Today’s Not Really News…
Musings of the Day
The big excitement (in my mind) yesterday - i have a bathing suit that i can wear without feeling terrible about my body. Apparently 15 pounds was just enough to get me into a more reasonable size, or something. Anyhow... just thought i'd mention that here. At the beach, there were some people next to … Continue reading Musings of the Day
The Anti-Whine
On the other hand, we're off to the beach today. What could be better than that? And pondering a bit on this... “She did not know yet how sometimes people keep parts of themselves hidden and secret, sometimes wicked and unkind parts, but often brave or wild or colorful parts, cunning or powerful or even … Continue reading The Anti-Whine
