Trying to Stay Warm


 

"This life is what you make it. Not matter what, you're going to mess up sometimes, it's a universal truth. Just because you fail once, doesn't mean you're gonna fail at everything. Keep trying, hold on, and always, always, always believe in yourself, because if you don't, then who will, sweetie? So keep your head high, keep your chin up, and most importantly, keep smiling, because life's a beautiful thing and there's so much to smile about." (Marilyn Monroe)

 

Hello, my lovely friends!

       

        It’s been awhile, but I’m back now. I needed these past few days off to just get my head in order, but I’m also sick right now. I caught something the other day and could feel it trying to turn into something. I woke up Friday morning feeling bad, took some medicine, and slept all day. I did wake up around 6p.m. and had something to eat and stayed up for a few hours. After I finish with this I’m going back to bed.

 

        Most of us are going to be hit with this winter storm and below freezing temperatures. We went out the other day to get groceries and was able to get everything we needed. It’s a good thing since I’m now under the weather. We’re already at 0 here and it’s not going to be much of an improvement come morning. I know many of us are going to be going through this so stay warm and home if you can.

 

        If you all haven’t noticed I haven’t been myself here. I’ve been taking more days off than normal and my blogs have been okay. There’s been a lot on my plate with my mom’s health, the friend who left social media, and just drama. First off my mom seems to be doing okay. She’s working on lower her numbers and taking care of herself. I’m hoping this helps her out so much. It’s been scary thinking about what could happen and I’m trying really hard not to go down that road.

 

        Now on to my friend that left online. Well, he left before Christmas. I did put messages up for him wishing him Merry Christmas and another one for the New Year. Earlier this week he popped back in and we chatted for a little while, but then it once again turned into an argument with each other. It once again ended badly. He was upset that it looks like I’m not missing him online because over on Twitter or “X” I’m very open and always on over there. My online friends there we talk all day long and joke and he didn’t like it. The more I started thinking about things with him I think he likes me broken and that he would be the one to fix me, but he sees I’m not and he wasn’t happy about that. The more I re-read our conversation I could see how demanding and talking down to me he did. It’s been a roller-coaster of emotions. 

 

 

Thank you so much for stopping by.

I wish you a good morning, afternoon or evening wherever you are.

Talk soon…

  1. I had a person like that long time ago and it can turn scary fast. I eventually had to block him in order to have peace. It was good that he lived in California and there was little chance that he would come here and so it was a tense time but I left it behind without too much damage to my life. Happy to hear that your mom is doing better, it could have been the holiday and doctors do like to do as much of the worse case stuff in order not to be sued if it happens. Even health things I look at it as - I do the best I can and leave the rest in God's hands. That way I enjoy life. Hope things smooth out for you, sometimes it is hard to blog when you are not feeling it, if it isn't fun, then it shouldn't be done. Huge hugs and much love.

    1. When I was able to look back at the conversation and really see it it was shocking how mean he was to me. It was a lot to read though, but sad to see it. This past month has drained me so much emotionally over it, that I'm over it now.

      My mom is doing well, but it still scares me. I know it's in the back of my head what could happen, but trying hard not to go there.

      I needed that little break. Have a wonderful weekend! (((BIG HUGS)))

  2. (((( BIG hugs )))) Online relationships are real, and just as subject to the false and true nuances as ones we have in person, but without the body language and facial expressions to help guide us. I think you are well to be moving on.

    As for your mom, I'm sending the warmest healing and motivation wishes her way. I'm glad she's working on the parts she can control, and I pray for better numbers for her.

    Stay safe and warm up there, mile-high!

    1. It was so emotionally draining this past month. I was like a zombie most of the time. The hard part id trying to make someone understand what you meant and they take it the wrong way. It was so frustrating for me.

      Thank you, she is doing well. We're going to work on some things with her and hopefully it'll help her out.

      Yep, it's 3 outside right now (2P.M.) we're staying in.

      Enjoy your weekend! (((BIG HUGS)))

  3. (( big hugs))! These cold and sunless days make it difficult for many to cope. If there are personal problems added to the mix, it only makes life harder. Hope there is sunshine in the lives of you and your mom soon. 💞

  4. Guess I missed logging in yesterday. I'm also glad you mom is improving. I think the holidays are hard on everyone. Sorry about your on line friend but it sounds like you might be better without his input.
