3 Hours of Reading & Trying to Sleep

Posted on by Gertie

Good Morning, World!!! I am still awake. After my last post I was hoping to get back to sleep. I, unfortunately was unable to do so.

I think not being able to get back to sleep is due to my anxiety. Not only is my anxiety acting but my depression is acting up as well. Not sure why but it is. Maybe its due to the lack of sleep.

I have been reading the last three hours when I wasn’t trying to get back to sleep. I am grateful I chose to read the Star Wars book. I know I have said this before but it is an easy read or eye candy as I like to call it.

I think I am going to get going and watch the morning news. Have a great day everyone. Peace Out, World!!!

An Early Awaking

Posted on by Gertie

Good Morning, World!!! I am up way too early once again.  It is two thirty in the morning in my corner of the world. I am not sure what I am going to do till I leave for my therapy appointment. I leave at eight in the morning.

I think I am going to read. I will be reading my Star Wars book. I really enjoy Star Wars. It is an easy read and not difficult to concentrate on.

Thank you for reading. I hope you have a great day. Peace Out, World!!!

 

Too Much Sh*t On My Mind

Posted on by Gertie

Hello, World!!! I don’t know what to think right now. I have a lot of shit on my mind. I don’t know why I am having all this stuff going through my head.

I’m having trouble sleeping because of the shit going through my head. One thing I can’t seem to get out of my head is the trauma related stuff. Why can’t the PTSD give me a break? Especially, when I am wanting to go to sleep.

I am also thinking a lot about my grandma. I miss her so very much. I wish she was still here with me and my family. I know she is watching over me and is my guardian angel. She still looking out for me or I hope she still is.

I am also thinking about the money issues I am having because social security won’t make a decision about my case. I am still disabled. My disability didn’t all of a sudden disappear; although it would very nice if it did.

On the humorous side of things, I am also thinking about the Star Wars book I am reading. Of all things that I am thinking about I find this the best thing or the least anxiety provoking or painful.

A Star Wars Type of Evening

Posted on by Gertie

Good Evening, World!!! I am sitting here trying to figure out what to do as I have been reading most of the day. My eyes are starting to get a little strained and that is with using my glasses.

I think I am going to watch a movie. Not sure what movie yet but will watch a movie. I might watch the original Star Wars. Yeah, I think I am going to do that.

Thank you for reading. Have a great evening. Peace Out, World!!!

Just Me Rambling About Random Sh*t

Posted on by Gertie

Good Afternoon, World!!! I am sitting here watching the news and blogging at the same time. I am going to be blogging what ever the hell that comes to my mind and right now I don’t know what that will be.

As I mentioned I am watching the local news. As usual there is no freaking good news being reported. I wish they would share some good news at least once a day.

I mentioned in my last post that I was working on my LGBTQ workbook. I went back to it and did one more section in the chapter I am on.  I also started working on my recovery workbook. I did a couple of sections on that as well.

I have also been reading my Star Wars book. It is an easy read and I might be done with it by this time next week if I focus on it. I am really enjoying the book and hope to read it as fast I think I will.

I am trying to figure what I am going to have for lunch. I think I am going to have a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. I will have glass of chocolate milk with it.

Thank you for reading. Peace Out, World!!!

Feeling Overwhelmed = Star Wars Book

Posted on by Gertie

Good Morning, World!!! I have been working on my LGBTQ workbook and found myself getting overwhelmed. I am feeling overwhelmed because what I am working on is hitting close to home. Its hitting close to home because I haven’t admitted to myself a lot of things regarding my gender identity but I am learning how to do so.

Since I am feeling overwhelmed, I have decided to take a break from the workbook for a few hours and read. I am going to to read the Star Wars book I got yesterday (Sunday).  Sometime in recovery you need to realize it is okay to take a break every once in awhile to take a break. Especially when you are reading Star Wars.

Thank you for reading and Peace Out, World!!!!

A Taking it Easy Type of Day

Posted on by Gertie

Good Morning, World!!! I was planning on going to the social security office today however I fell asleep and slept through my alarm. I fell asleep because I was up way too early. Technically, I can still go but that means I would have to wait a lot longer. I am now planning on going on Wednesday as I have appointments tomorrow (Tuesday).

I am not really not planning on doing much today as the lack of sleep I got last night and I am not feeling all that well. I am not even planning on going to Art Group due to the fact that I am not feeling well. It is disappointing that I won’t be able to attend Art Group however I would rather get better today so I can see my therapist tomorrow as well as my primary care physician (pcp).

On that note, I am planning on taking it easy by reading the Star Wars book I started reading yesterday. I am loving the book. It is such an easy read. Something what I call eye candy.

Thank you for reading. I greatly appreciate all of you. Have an incredible day everyone and Peace Out, World.

Up Way Too Early

Posted on by Gertie

Good Morning, World!!! I woke up at three o’clock in the morning in my neck of the wood and have been unsuccessful in getting back to sleep. So, when I was unable to get back to sleep I decided to make myself some hot chocolate and listen to a podcast about philosophy. When I listen to a podcast, I take notes on them. I take notes on the podcast so I can look up the information myself. I do this so I can educate myself to the best of my ability as well as know what the hell I am discussing when I talk about it to others.

After listening to a podcast and looking things up, I decided to read. Read my Star Wars book that I recently got. I am highly enjoying the book. I haven’t read any of the Star Wars books till I started the one I am reading yesterday (Sunday). It is an easy read.

I think I am going to end this post and go back to reading. Thank you for reading my blog. It is greatly appreciated on my end. You all are extremely awesome. Have a very good day. Peace Out, World!!!

 

My Saturday

Posted on by Gertie

Good Evening, World!!! I have had a good day. I first had lunch with my family to celebrate my uncle’s birthday. He liked the card I made him as well as the picture I painted for him. He know where he is “going to put it.”

After lunch with my family I hung out with a friend from elementary school and junior high. I made her spaghetti as it is her favorite meal. It was nice to see her. We hang out every two months or so.

Now that my friend left, I am blogging about my day. I now plan on reading one of my new books. A Star Wars book. I am looking forward to reading it.

Thanks for reading. Peace Out, World!!!

Day With Family & Friends

Posted on by Gertie

Good Morning, World!!! I am looking forward to today as I get to spend it with family. We are celebrating my uncle’s birthday. Spending time with family is always nice for the most part.

I am also looking forward to having dinner with a friend I went to elementary school and junior high with. We try to get together every two to three months. In fact I am making her spaghetti for dinner as it is her favorite meal.

Thank you for reading. Have a great day. Peace Out, World!!!
