Welcome October!

Hello and good afternoon everyone!

It’s Sunday, and a brisk Sunday here in Olympia, Washington at that! It’s finally starting to look and feel like fall here… trees are changing and everything is dying around us – don’t worry, nature mostly. I have candles burning on the mantle (which I still need to clean off.. oops) and it smells like a bakery in here! This is my new favorite candle that my mom sent me for my birthday 2 weeks ago now. It’s a wood wick, and it crackles as it burns like a nice warm fire place in fall.

I’m in the midst of rebranding and relaunching my blog here during October. So exciting! It’s going to be more writing on my part but it’s also going to encompass YOU. I have a select few guest bloggers writing for my page, and you’ll see those at least once a week, until (ready for it?) the end of 2018 and potentially into January 2019! Don’t worry, you’ll still get blogs from me in the meantime obviously, but my guests hold a special place in my heart in the relaunching of my blog. I’m going to focus on anything from mental health/anxiety to photography, art, cooking/baking and everything in between. That’s right – a life blog and more.

I’ll also be throwing in some blogging tips like this first one I created for you to follow and possibly help you create better understanding content for not only your current readers, but for new potential readers in the future:

I can’t wait to get started and share my guests with you!

My first one is coming from Marvelously Miranda – who’s also a fellow WordPress.com blogger! After being diagnosed with an anxiety disorder at the age of 20, Miranda shares 5 things she’s learned since her diagnosis with us. She enjoys advocating for the vulnerable, writing to encourage others, and spending time with her dog Brody. She is also a licensed social worker with 2 years experience in the mental health area.

Look for her post coming this first week in October, and let’s give her a warm welcome as my first guest blogger on my almost ready relaunch!

Been awhile, life’s been crazy. I’ve been trying to find the time to keep writing but I just haven’t had any. I mean I have, but I’ve had no ideas really to make me want to write anything substantial in my opinion. It’s been a blur to be honest, I can’t believe a year has almost gone by since myself and guy started dating again.. and it makes me feel semi good, that I can make it better than the last time we dated since we both effed up the last time and several times after that. Seems like we can’t just get it right.. Maybe this time won’t be so bad… here’s to hoping!

I’ve taken some photos recently, with guy’s other camera the Sony a6000 and I like it. But I only like it with the 90mm Macro since it’s amazing. I kind of want it. But there’s no way I can afford the lenses for it. Yes, I can borrow his, but what’s that going to do for me should something happen with myself and him. I will never give up my Canon camera for something else. I would only add to it. I plan on trying to start a collection of some sorts and when I finally get a home, I will have a camera closet for all my things.

Here are a few shots of the Sony a6000 that I took just yesterday around Nanticoke, PA.

When you’re tired of hating me, you no longer want to hide

It’s time for another session of relaxation and tea bath before my roommates get home and take their long shower. I’ve been thankful enough to get to take some nice showers lately thankfully, and it’s helping my mood a lot surprisingly. *hand clap* Off I go because then I’m going to sleep forever tonight, maybe I’ll put my hair in curlers again. We’ll see since it seems to poof then I use them, lol!

Cheers,

And here’s why…

Every single other Social Media outlet had the on the minute reports of what was happening, I didn’t even need to tune in to any TV channel or click on a link to see that it was messed up in every way. I mean Kanye for President in 2020? Who wants to see that? Everyone will probably leave the country and be happier in my opinion, but that’s just me. I personally don’t think he’d be a “good” President, especially if he’s getting stoned at award shows and dressing like how he did. What kind of outfit is that when his wife is dolled up like that in a dress and he’s in a pant suit made of what looked like sweat material or something? I mean, he could have atleast smiled when pics were being taken, and atleast Kim’s dress looked a little more fancy than the rags he wore. They have how much money and can’t dress up in nicer clothes?

Anywho. I’m sitting at the drivers license center in town and I’ve been here an hour already. I should be working and making money but no, I have to sit here and wait to pay to get a license. This is ridiculous. It’s the day after a holiday and everyone should be at work again, not here. And of course you know, there were 4 people now there’s 2 for some reason. I came here at C656 and they’re only on C706 and I’m C734. This is absurd. They should have more people here to help out with this crowd. Not to mention they’re rude (the people who take the photos) and tell everyone wrong information. If you actually look up the Google reviews for this location, it’s only a 2.5☆ because of how rude the people are. Not even joking.
I have to run to Target after this to see if they still have those clearance desks so I can have a better work space to work on. Something cleaner and nicer for once instead of the glass desk. It’s a pain in the ass to clean as it is because if the fur from the kitties so I need something wood that’s easier. And if I got 2 desks and put them together, it’s 80″ long for 50$ and that’s not too bad right? I know they’ll fit because I have a 60″ desk right now about. And plenty of room for more.

*Side note* Target did have them, but not in the all black color I wanted so I got the brown and black ones and they turned out pretty well actually. I think I made the right choice and it was only 45 bucks after clearance and 5$ coupon I had and I’m pleased with them. I took some time off from writing this because well, the DMV went well and then Target went well and I worked the rest of the day. Now I’m back to working… I think atleast. I’ve been working since 9am today and I feel like if I hear or see another NYCONT number I’m going to throw up something nasty.

In this segment, I’d like to talk about Rhett and Link and the Mythical Beasts. I was recently introduced to them and I don’t know why I didn’t hear about them sooner. They’re always good for a laugh and a natural “wtf” reaction in any of their videos. I’ve been binge watching them and I think I could watch them forever. And I do have to admit that Link’s concoction of frosted mini wheats and peanut butter is actually really really good, even for breakfast when you have a headache and need all that sugar intake. That’s what I’ve been having for the past week and my gosh is it amazing. I think I could live off peanut butter like Link could. I think we’re twinsies. No, seriously, I think we are.

You’re Weird, Peanut Butter Mini Wheats

Moving on, I think it’s about time this one ends and another begins. More later, like always.

Don’t Be Fooled-

I’m not sad actually for once- but I was listening to this song this morning and it really hits home.

It’s a great song and makes me think alot- but that’s to be expected of course.

Sometimes-I wish I never felt the influence of you
Cause now I feel the disconnect, like an open wound
Where you once were, there is a space that runs as deep as hell
But every morning when I wake I tell myself-
Don’t be fooled by your emptiness,
There’s so much more room for happinessSometimes-it’s worse to have lost than to have never had at all
Cause it’s a curse to feel loved then to feel it all dissolved
Where you once were, there is a space that runs as deep as hell
But every morning when I wake I tell myself-
Don’t be fooled by your emptiness,
There’s so much more room for happiness

-Kaskade; Room For Happiness

– The bruises never heal. There is nothing left of me. I want to believe in someone-

I want to believe in something. I want to believe that I can love again.
