Reading, Blogging & Art

Posted on by Gertie

Good Morning, World! It is seven in the morning Seattle time. I sadly did not sleep very well last night. I did sleep a little bit but when I was awake I cuddled with my cat, Billie as well as read a little bit. I also did some art work as well. Actually I colored. I didn’t color as much as I wanted to due to the lack pf pencil sharpeners so I ordered some off of Amazon.

On that not note, today is going to be a day of self care. I already took a shower and shaved my legs. Now I am in clean pajama’s. My plans to do self care is to blog.. I plan on blogging about inspiration writing, photography and poetry as well self care which includes sleep. I didn’t sleep very well last night. I also plan on reading a few chapters in a book I am reading.

No Television = Reading and/or Art

Posted on by Gertie

Good Evening, World!!! I just woke up from a nap. In fact it was a was restful sleep which is rare for me. I would have slept longer if my cat didn’t howl and want to play. I love my cat, Billie Dean so much. Billie helps me with my mental health challenges.

Since I was woken up by Billie, my cat I decided to play with him. He sure loves his wand toy. In fact the vet says Billie needs more exercise. She says play is the best way to get exercise. Plus walking him on his harness and leash inside my apartment building.

Now that I am up for a nap and playing with my cat Billie, I’m going to either read or do some form of art If I choose to read I willl be reading . “The Bard Tale; Castle of Deception or art. If i do zrt I most likely will do some coloring.

I do not have much to say. I oo want to thank you for reading my blog. If it was not for you the reader,, reading my blog I would not be writing my blog. Again, thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading my blog. Peace Out, World!!!

An Opps = A Lazy Sunday

Posted on by Gertie

Good Evening, World!!! It’s been a lazy Sunday. It’s been a lazy Sunday because I haven’t really done anything today. I didn’t even go volunteer because I slept in which is a huge OPPPS for me. When I called letting them know they told me to not worry about it. I feel really bad and was informed to not worry about.

Since I missed my volunteer job, I have felt a little out of place which is why I think it’s been a lazy type of Sunday. Which was a good thing in a way. I was able to go to local park with hiking trails. A friend and I met up at the park and went hiking on the trails. It was the perfect day for it due to the nice, beautiful day here in Seattle. The best part was the mountain was out. When people in the Seattle area say the mountain is out they meant Mount Rainer isn’t hiding behind any clouds. It was nice to go hiking and hang out with my friend.

After hanging out hiking with a friend, I got home and rested. I rested by reading. I read the first three chapters of DragonSong. So far so good. Lets hope I continue to enjoy it. I love to read especially fantasy and science fiction books.

A Lazy Type of Day

Posted on by Gertie

Good Morning, World from my corner of the world known as Seattle. In fact it will be a lazy day for me except for doing some minor chores in my home. I am not going to do many chores today becaggguse I don’t feel like doing much of it.

Since I am not going to be doing many chores today, I plan on doing some mindfulness meditation practice. This will help me be in the present time. A time to be present minded in your own way. Mindfulness meditation is something that can change you in a positive way.

After doing mindfulness of day will help me play with my cat, Billie Dean and playing with him will be fun for both my cat and myself. Plus he will tired out after Billie is done playing.

The lazy part of the day is me reading a book today. I am looking forward to reading most of the day. I love to read. It helps me distract myself from the issues I am dealing with.\

Looks Like a Day to Not Watch News

Posted on by Gertie

Good Morning, World!!! Today is going to be a day I am not going to watch television. Well, maybe I will watch television later but not at the moment as all the major networks are talking about what the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) did earlier with over turning Roe V. Wade. I am not watching it as the decision make me angry and how politicians are going to politicize this decision especially when the mid term elections happen. All I want to do is watch the Today Show on NBC but it looks like that is not going to happen today.

Since I’m not going to watch television this morning nor the news this evening just to make sure my mental health stays in tact, I am going to read. I am going to read “DragonSong” by Anne McCaffrey. I am choosing to read this book in hopes it grabs my attention within the first two chapters as my concertation isn’t at its best.

I do not have much else to say in this particular blog post. I do want to thank you for reading my blog. It is greatly appreciated from my end that you read my blog. If it wasn’t for you the reader, reading my blog, I would not be writing my blog. Again, thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading my blog. Peace Out, World!!!

A Mindfulness Type of Post

Posted on by Gertie

Good Morning, World!!! Or maybe I should say Happy Friday Eve!!! Either way, I am greeting everyone with a smile despite being somewhat anxious. Not sure why, I am anxious and I am okay with that. I am okay with that because of doing mindfulness and meditation.

I started doing the “Daily Calm” on the “Calm” app once again. At one point in time I did the “Daily Calm” over one hundred days in a row. I am hoping that I can get back into the habit of doing it again like I did before because it helped me be in a better headspace.

Not only does the “Daily Calm” put me in a better headspace, my cat does it as well. My cat, Billie Dean has helped me a great deal to be in a better headspace. Billie has also helped me do mindfulness especially when he is on my lap. I am so grateful for my cat.

I don’t have much else to say in this particular blog post. I do want to thank you for reading my blog. If it wasn’t for you the reader, reading my blog I would not be writing my blog. Once again, thank you from the bottom of heart for reading my blog. Peace Out, World!!!
