A Podcast Type of Night

Posted on by Gertie

Hello, World!!! It is the middle of the night in my corner of the world. I am not exactly tired enough to even try to go to bed and sleep. I say this because if I went to bed now, I wouldn’t be able to sleep and sadly, would be tossing and turning. So, instead of trying to go to sleep when I know I won’t be able to, I am blogging as I listen to a podcast about philosophy. The philosophy podcast I am listening to is “Philosophize This.”

“Philosophize This” is one of my favorite podcast. It is the first podcast, I started listening to. In fact, I am trying to catch up to present day episodes. I am really enjoying this podcast as I am learning a great deal about philosophy. I highly recommend listening to “Philosophize This” especially if you enjoy learning from someone who appears to be down to earth just by listening.

Of course as I listen to the podcast, my cat, Billie Dean, is laying right next to me. Billie is an extremely sweet cat. He loves to lay on my lap and is very much a cuddly lap cat. I love him so very much.

I do not have much more to say at the moment. I do want to thank you for reading my blog. It is greatly appreciative from my end that you took the time out of your day to read my blog. Again, thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading my blog. Goodnight and don’t the let the bed bugs bite. Peace Out, World!!!

Yet, Another Post About my Depression

Posted on by Gertie

Good Afternoon, World!!! It is two days shy of a month since I last blogged. I do not have an excuse of why I haven’t blogged in nearly a month. Or at least an excuse that I feel okay with because there isn’t an excuse good enough for why I haven’t blogged.

Right now my depression is acting up. I am wondering if the increased depression is due to the time of year or due to Covid-19 or due to the up coming elections here in the United States or all of the above. No matter the reason the why I am dealing with increased depression symptoms at least I am aware of it and that it is currently a mild case for me. I know I shouldn’t be dismissive of my depression symptoms as being “mild,” its just that they could be much, much worse.

As far as trying to make myself feel better, spending time with my cat, Billie Dean is quite helpful. Billie is very much a cuddly cat and loves to spend as much time as he can on my lap. I love Billie so much and am grateful for his unconditional love. The love of an animal is the best feeling in the world.

Another way, I am going to do to help with the depression is to read. I most likely will read the fantasy/science fiction book that I am currently reading. Reading helps me cope with my reality. It helps me forget my reality for an hour or two at time without doing harm to myself.

I do not have much more to say as I want to go read. I want to thank you all for reading my blog. I am greatly appreciative that you have chosen to read my blog. Again, thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading my blog. I hope you all have a great day. Peace Out, World!!!
