2129 I feel like I'm in this new area of my life where good things are coming my way. I'm not into the whole "law of attraction" belief. But this is like a gut feeling. Maybe it's just from being happier from separating myself from the drainers or what. I'm not sure. If I could …
Micro-Journaling: Day 0
Oh hello :)I watched this YouTube video by Struthless which was just exactly what I needed. I mean, as you know (from here & here), I've been stepping back from making myself too accessible to others. People take advantage & I've been drained & unable to recharge. I've been like this for years. Ugh. No …

Being content – Part 2: Moving forward
I was thinking about my last post & how I've been trying to make my peace with the fact that it's okay to stick with what works. There might be something bigger & better out there but it's not worth the time, energy, or drama to try to figure it out. To piggyback on that …

August 2021 Goals
So I've kinda gone through some friendship shit lately. People who claim they love you then tell you they no longer do. People who say they're always there but haven't talked to you in months. You know the type. A few of these have ran & jumped off the ship lately. It's interesting because I'm …

I've been thinking about what Dr. G told me to do with intrusive thoughts. She's mentioned to me a few times of acknowledging their presence (either by taking a moment or saying, "That's interesting") before releasing it & letting it go. I'm sure this sounds like an easy-peasy task for most of you. For me, …
