It always makes me think of Andrea Bocelli Maybe it's because I recently turned 40. Maybe it's just where I am in life. But for whatever reason, I find myself making my peace by walking away from people or things that no longer serve a purpose. That sounds harsh but it's not. With people, I …
My new journey towards sobriety
Today's post is written for those I hurt. No fun gifs or anything today as this is for them. I want them to understand that I am serious about changing for the better. Hey - So Saturday was...interesting. I'm sure you were like, "Okay, she's having fun" or whatever. But to me, it was different. …
Micro-Journaling: Day 5
2258 Today was a pretty good day. I put in my notice & my boss decided that I was done at that point (haha okay). I was prepared for that decision so I was fine. I took a shower, dropped off all the equipment I had (I worked remote), & I took myself out for …
Micro-Journaling: Day 4
Well, today was the tipping point. I decided to put my notice in tomorrow. I was gonna try to wait until next Friday so that I had another week of pay but this is such horseshit. My managers have ALL unfriended me on social media & refused to have acknowledged my presence. I haven't talked …
Micro-Journaling: Day 2
2318 I dreamt about a high school reunion again. Why does that keep happening? It's so bizarre. This one was at a hockey game & I had a navy blue bodycon dress & red stilettos. Also, I was besties with Jason Alexander & Joey Tribbiani. Not Matt LeBlanc... Joey. Job #1 seems like it's grasping …
Micro-Journaling: Day 1
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 …
Restricting access
I was thinking about how much I've stepped back lately. I mean, I haven't posted here yet this month. I'm barely online for funsies anymore. I've been in this weird stage of my life when I'm enjoying the quiet, simple silence.Part of that is because I feel invisible. I'm not sure how I'm consistently being …

But I realized I never posted it so here we go! https://media.giphy.com/media/l1KtXmfi3EnjM5zpK/giphy.gif OCTOBER GOALSFOR THE NEXT 30 DAYS, I WILL:– create new, sustainable habits (via baby steps) that will help me succeed. ...

Short stories
Oh, man. It's been a hot minute. I've missed talking to you & I wanna get you all caught up. I've got a lot on my mind & my poor friends are probably sick of me bitching to them. So in no particular order, let's dive into my book of latest short stories. This will …
