My 6th Post of the Day

Posted on by Gertie

Good Evening, World!!! The weather is still yucky here in Seattle. In fact, the weather is yuckier and worse than it was when I posted my last blog post. So much worse that my lights are flickering. So, let’s hope that my electricity does not go out.

Since I still have electricity, I am going try to write this post as quick as possible especially since my anxiety is high. My anxiety is high due to the fact that I have a job interview tomorrow. It is a peer position and a local level one trauma hospital that has a behavioral health agency. It is part time which is something that I need right now especially regarding my recovery and being able to go to therapy. I need to stay healthy mentally to be able to work in mental health.

Speaking of health, I am still feeling like shit with this stupid cold. It is getting slightly better, but it takes so freaking long to get one hundred percent better. The good news is at least I do not have Covid, and I am so happy about that. Having Covid sucks even more that a cold and I should know as I have had Covid. At least I am feeling somewhat better and that is all I can ask for.

I do not have anything else to discuss or write about in this particular blog post. I do want to thank you the reader for reading my blog. It is greatly appreciated on my end of things that you the reader read my blog. If it was not for you the reader, reading my blog, I would not be continuing to write my blog. Again, thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading my blog. Peace Out, World!!!

Seattle Weather + Depression = Time to Color

Posted on by Gertie

Good Evening, World!!! Right this very moment in my Seattle neighborhood it windy with a downpouring rain. This weather is normal for Seattle this time of year and it sucks especially when you struggle with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) along with Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). Both types of depression are common for many people to have in Seattle and some of us like myself have both. Having both types of depression especially in Seattle, sucks but knowing how to cope with the depression is key to making sure it doesn’t get the better of you.

Not letting depression get the better of you is to realize what help you cope with depression. For me one of the ways I cope with depression is various types of artwork including but not limited to coloring. Coloring is something I have enjoyed since childhood. I did not stop coloring when I became a teenager, nor did I stop coloring as an adult. I love to color and truly enjoy it which is why I am going to color after I am finished with this particular blob post.

Anxiety Over Job Interview Tomorrow

Posted on by Gertie

Good Afternoon, World!!! In twenty-four hours from I will be in a job interview. I am having some anxiety over the job interview I am not sure why I am so anxious over it. I do not think I should be so anxious over this job interview as the program manager of the program I am interviewing with knows me. He was a supervisor at a previous employer which is an employer I succeeded at and no he was not my direct supervisor. I also do not think I should be nervous about the interview is because it is a part time job that will suits me great, and the team is only six-member team. Plus, it is at an employer I really would love to work at. Maybe the reason why I am so anxious about the job interview is because I really want the job.

It’s A Slow Progress on Current Diamond Painting

Posted on by Gertie

Good Morning, World!!! If you are a regularly read my blog, you know that I am really big into doing diamond art/painting and recently started another one. Doing diamond art/painting is time consuming and at the same time really fun to do as well as a sense of accomplishment once it is finished. I love doing diamond art/painting and I am so very grateful a neighbor in my apartment building introduced me to this wonderful artform. I am going to include a picture with captions for those readers who are sight impaired or blind.

The diamond art/painting of a tuxedo cat is slowly progressing.

The Waiting Game

Posted on by Gertie

Good Morning, World!!! It is nine thirty-six in the morning here in Seattle. I am waiting for UPS to deliver on of my medications and I am getting frustrated. I have never had any of my medications delivered before and I am not if I am going to ever do it again. This is why I prefer going to a brick-and-mortar pharmacy as I hate the waiting grame.

As I wait for UPS to deliver my medications, I will be doing some artwork as my cat, Billie sleeps in my lap as he snores. The type of artwork I am planning on doing is diamond art/painting. In fact, I will be working on the one I started yesterday, the diamond art/painting of a tuxedo cat in a tree. The reason why I chose the one I am working on is because I am partial to tuxedo cats as my cat, Billie is a tuxedo cat. I really do enjoy doing diamond art/painting.

I Got a Good Night of Sleep!!!

Posted on by Gertie

Good Morning, World!!! I surprisingly got a good night of sleep last night. Part of me wonders if the reason why I got a good night of sleep is because I am still not feeling well. I am grateful for the good night of sleep and I wish I didn’t have to be sick to have gotten a good night of sleep.

On the note, the weather doesn’t look as yucky as it was yesterday or at least that is what it looks like when I look out my window. Then it again it is still dark outside. Let’s hope that the weather is not as yucky as yesterday as the day progresses.

No matter what the weather is today, I am not going to do much of anything because I am still not feeling well. I probably will just be staying home and cuddle with my cat, Billie. I love being able to spend time with my cat, Billie. I am grateful that I have my cat, Billie in my life. He has made my life so much easier to cope with the challenging times in my life.

Speaking of cats, I am planning on continuing to work on the diamond art/painting that I started on yesterday of a tuxedo cat in a tree. Part of the reason I chose this particular diamond art/painting is because it is a tuxedo cat and my cat, Billie is a tuxedo cat. I really enjoy doing diamond art/painting and I am so very happy that my neighbor introduced me to this particular form of art.
