Ahhh...the Cleansing

My day off. And what did I do? Yep, I cleaned. I mean CLEANED! Something that I quit doing. WoW! I really did let my life and my "self" go to complete shit for the last couple of years. And ultimately that was my fault in the end...I mean it was directly my fault, but indirectly it was because of Peter Pan Syndrome...I think you know what I mean. I've said it all before...I quit going to the gym, I quit tanning, I quit being a mom, I quit cleaning...and organizing which I've said before I'm a freak about organizing. So, today I finally got the last of the "shit" out of my apartment. It smells good...like me...it looks good...and I even rearranged stuff so that it would feel like a new start...new shower curtain (I told you I was a linen whore!)...hung up some new art...It's refreshing...and it was cleansing...theraputic...I cried a lot...but the good kind of crying...a release...

And I had the weirdest lunch....mini corndogs...and I made a mozarella ball and cherry tomato salad...love that! Oh, and a Sunkist, too.

Can't wait to see you all! I will be at Coyote Ugly as well as Dave and Buster's on Saturday. I thought I had a date for Friday night, but I think I'm gonna get stood up...anyway...if not, Armando Saldivar will be my date...he doesn't know where Coyote Ugly is and doesn't want to get lost, so he thinks I should just drive him, but that's our little secret!

I forgot to add that yesterday among all the great birthday wishes I also had a phone call from Mando, who just laughed at me for being old! I love that though...you can always count on your friends to make you feel good...or to put you in your place! But what the hell is he talking about, he's going to be 31 this year!!!!

I'm here at my parent's to pick up Gabby...my mom's been taking her to swimming lessons Mon - Thurs. She's looking great...tan and fit...and happy. I saw Ray Ray the Killer today...but he didn't have his game face on today...he was not so hard on me...He wasn't singing, "Toe Tag...or a Body Bag..." It's a little song he sings when he asks how I want to leave the gym. He's so freakin' funny. I've been having this pain behind my knee especially when I work out my hamstrings...Ray Ray thinks it might be tendinitis...it sucks, and hurts. Yuck! And can I just say...staggered squats blow!!! Hate, hate, hate them! They make everything hurt, even my feet...and if there's one place I REALLY can't stand pain...it's my feet! The end...I have to go home now and pick up just a few more things...I will be on my hands and knees scrubbing floors until bed time!

I have to apologize to you, my faithful friends and readers...I usually get pretty personal on this blog, and save the silly, doesn't really matter who reads it, blogs for my MySpace blog...but lately I've been lazy and just want to get some stuff out...so, I've been putting up the exact same blogs on both. But I do want to get back to being more personal on here, with you...I think I've been holding a lot in, not wanting to feel anything...or let anything out...I guess I've been feeling a little numb...but I want to share! Maybe I've just haven't felt safe letting any feeling out...I mean afterall, here recently my feelings have been pretty much trampled...but I want to get back to doing my lists, too...thinking good things, and trying to feel better! I went and saw a counselor yesterday...yes, on my birthday of all days!!! I'll put more on that next time! I'll save the good stuff just for you guys!

Happy Freakin' New Year

Written January 1, 2021, when I tried to start a Wordpress blog , but failed because I'm old and it's too complicated. 2020 and I had a love/hate relationship. I hated seeing what was happening to others and the world. I dealt with my fair share of struggles, but mostly, I think I was the closest to contentment that I've ever been. 1. I LOVED working from home MOMO working from home 2. I felt closer to my family 3. I didn't mind the slower pace and less to do 4. I was able to have a better work/life balance 5. I felt more productive at home and at work 6. I did a couple of home projects - helped my parents landscape my front yard, gave my bedroom a makeover with my sister, and reorganized my pantry with her Before After Pantry Makeover Bedroom Makeover 7. I spent the best summer with my son and dogs at my sister'shouse - laughing, crying, painting rocks, getting to know my fur nieces and nephews (Wall-E, Maggie, Leeloo, and funny, little, Peyton who we lost in...

FYI

Just so you know...my computer is sitting here, on the floor, next to me...at my parent's house!!! Woo Hoo! I've taken the first step in getting it fixed...but alas, there it sits...I'm not the only slacker in the family! Also, I turn 30 in less than 20 days...

End of Summer

Who knew that at 28 years of age I would be writing a post about how I spent my summer. Don't people usually stop talking about their summers after a certain age? Say like, 22? It probably wouldn't be such a big deal to me if I wasn't still a student who doesn't haven't to have a "career" year round. Well, here it is . . . the end of summer. I go back to work on Monday, and school starts on Wednesday. My days of sleeping in, going out, etc are over. I still get every weekend off when Gabby goes to her dad's, but we'll still be a lot more "scheduled" around here. End of summers when I was younger always felt weird because you were sad about the summer being over, but a little excited about going back to school, shopping for school supplies and clothes, thinking about if there'd be a new cute guy in class, getting to see your friends everyday. I have a whole section in my memory that is filed under "Summer". It's my favori...
