My mind is currently a mess. It seems like one emotional upset after another is being absorbed and internalized by me, and I’m not sure they’re worth delving into. But here I am writing about them because what else can I do to feel unburdened? Today was a particularly taxing workday battling a tension headache.…… Continue reading Emotional Upsets
Well, I’m out. Sunday the 31st was my moving-in date to my new place. This is what I wanted. Change is never easy and so far I’ve felt bad and good effects from it. Originally I got the largest room that faced the street but me and Juliane switched rooms today. While there were perks…… Continue reading Mixed Bag of Emotions
I’m counting down the days until I can finally move all my stuff out and move into my new apartment. Things have been quiet around my parents. I don’t really care all that much to cherish my time with them now because I’m too focused with leaving and having the freedom I am owed after…… Continue reading Bitter Words
I spent several days in suspense awaiting news from the owners of an apartment that Ash, Juliane, and I applied to. We got their approval to move in, and the agent intends to send over the lease on Monday. I actually haven’t seen the place in-person yet, as during the initial viewing of this apartment…… Continue reading Track of Life
I spent two hours last night going through more than a dozen old journals and taking out the pages for recycling. That isn’t even the whole collection of writings I have left to get rid of. Up until about mid-2021, I was still using paper journals. All those books filled up two whole cabinets. After…… Continue reading Starting Afresh
I just had the worst anxiety yesterday, perhaps from drinking too much coffee and my emotions being heightened due to the group social setting I found myself in. Ash was there, along with other coworkers I am friendly with, but there were a couple of coworkers I didn’t know that well. Everyone was laughing and…… Continue reading Somewhere Inbetween
For the last few weeks, I’ve been frequenting a thrift shop near one of my worksites to give away small items I no longer need or want. This isn’t an ordinary spurt of early spring cleaning. It’s intentional because I’m currently in the works with a semi-secret plan in progress to move out sometime during…… Continue reading From the Ashes
I don’t know where to start. Since my last blog post, I went through a ring of hell throughout the rest of November and for all of December. The organization I work for was funded through the city and we faced some very severe budget cuts in November 2023 that would’ve eliminated my whole department…… Continue reading On the Edge
This blog seems to be in a stasis. I hardly ever play with the theme/style of the blog design and haven’t thought about changing it. And I probably wouldn’t have the energy to revamp it to regenerate new interest from other bloggers. Mostly I find it comforting to come back here from time to time…… Continue reading The Boundary Line
Summer has flown by. My work schedule has kept me relatively busy with regular shifts four times a week, sometimes five if I work an additional optional shift. Most days now I pack two mugs of coffee, one 16 ounces and one 8 ounces, both of which I add ice into to make iced coffee.…… Continue reading Not My Fault
Don't mind me, I'm justanervousgirl.
