- Cats- Cats bring me happiness especially my cat, Billie. In fact I would not be volunteering at PAWS Cat City if cats didn’t bring me happiness.
- Friends – My friends bring me happiness on the daily basis. I would not know how I could function without my friends because they have been there for me.
- Family – As dysfunctional as my family is, they bring me happiness as I know they love me in their own way and do the best they can to show me.
- Art – Art brings me happiness. Actually doing art is what brings me happiness. Specifically I enjoy coloring. I also enjoy rock painting which is something I just started doing.
- Reading – Reading is something that also brings me happiness as it helps me get out of my head when I am struggling with things. Hell, it is fun to do even when I am doing well.

Daily Prompt; What is Your Favorite Restaurant?
My favorite restaurant is Red Robin. I have been going to Red Robin since I was a kid living in California. I would go to Red Robin as a teenager in California as well as here in Washington (State) whenever I went to the mall with my friends. In fact Red Robin started here in Seattle. Most people don’t realize that. I love going to Red Robin with friends as well as family. In fact it is a family tradition to go to Red Robin for birthdays. Red Robin has awesome food and I usually get the same thing. I love Red Robin.
Daily Prompt; Do You Vote in Political Elections?
Yes, I do vote in political elections. I vote in elections to help my voice be heard even though it feels like my voice is not heard due to the electoral college. I understand to a degree why it was originally put into place however I think it should no longer be part of the voting process as it doesn’t allow the people’s voice to be heard anymore. Anyway, I vote in political elections so the voice of the people is heard.
Daily Prompt; What’s The Most Fun Way to Exercise?
I find multiple ways to have fun exercising but the two main things that come to mind are not the usual ways most people do for fun to get exercise. Those two things are kickball and roller hockey. In fact I am currently on a kickball team for the spring season and I am having fun with it. I will be taking the summer season off due to the fact that I just found out that there is an outdoor roller hockey season here in Seattle so I will be doing that. I love both kickball and roller hockey. I also enjoy rollerblading and do it on nice days around Greenlake here in Seattle. I like to do other things as well but these are things I have the most with as of right regarding exercise.
Plans on Blogging
Good Afternoon, World!!! I know I have written about blogging more to keep you the reader more interested in reading my blog. The ways I have started to do this is doing Weekly Plans on Sunday mornings, Caturday with Billie on Saturday mornings and Weekly Check-Ins on Saturday evenings. I realize that blogging more than two days a week with three posts a week will need to be increased. I thought about doing daily prompts starting this Monday on weekdays which is Monday through Friday. I plan on doing daily prompts that WordPress provides. I hope they keep you the reader interested in continuing to read my blog. I will also write other posts as well on whatever moves me to write a blog post.
I realize this is a brief post as I do not have much more to write about in this particular blog post. I do want to thank you for reading my blog. It is greatly appreciated from my end of things that you the reader continue reading my blog. If it was not for you the reader continuing to read 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!!!
Lack of Blogging = Regular Blogging Schedule
Good Afternoon, World!!! My blogging or the lack there of has me thinking about creating a schedule to blog at least two to three times a week. I plan on blogging Sunday mornings and posting Weekly Plans. On Saturday Mornings, I plan on doing Caturday with Billie and Friends which will be pictures of my cat Billie and cats from friends as well as cats I work with at my volunteer job at PAWS Cat City. Then on Saturday evenings, I will do a Weekly Check-In. I figure that if I schedule blogging into my calendar that I will keep you my reader at least semi-interested in continuing to read my blog.
Another thing I am considering doing happens to be daily prompts. Not sure when I will start them much less how long I will do them and the frequency. I most likely will do daily prompts that WordPress does as they tend to be good prompts in my opinion a good portion of the time.
I do not have much more to discuss or write about in this particular blog post. I do want to thank you for reading my blog. It is greatly appreciated from 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.

My Blogging Is Slacking, Again
Good Evening, World!!! I have noticed that my blogging is slacking once again. One of my New Year’s goals for this year (2024) is to blog on average three times a week. At this point in time, it is my goal to put into my schedule to blog.
The way I will schedule my end is to go back to what I started at the beginning of the year. That is that on Sunday mornings, I will do Weekly Plans. On Wednesday evenings, I will do Hump Day Update. On Saturday mornings I will do Caturday With Billie featuring pictures of Billie and occasionally other cats. On Saturday evenings, I will do Weekly Check-Ins.
Another goal of mine is to hopefully start doing daily prompts. I am hoping to start doing daily prompts in the next week or two. The reason being about starting daily prompts is so, I can plan it into my daily schedule.
I do not have much more to write about in this particular blog post. I do want to thank you, the reader for reading my blog.

Daily Prompt; Do You Spend More Time Thinking About the Future of the Past? Why?
Do you spend more time thinking about the future or the past? Why?
This is a hard one for me especially after finding out that I am pregnant as it is hard to not think about the future especially for the child you are pregnant with. One cannot help but think about the future of their child and bringing one into this chaotic world.
Despite thinking about the future of my child as well as mine, I thought a great deal about my future and how much hope I have even through my struggles. For me I can’t help but think about the future and where my recovery journey will take me. Yes, I fear bigger relapses with my mental health challenges but hope is there that I will just get back up on horse and continue to work on my recovery.
On that note, I also think a lot about the past. Sometimes not willingly due to PTSD. PTSD sucks and has you thinking about some of the most horrific moments you experienced in your life. For instance PTSD has remember this stuff through flashbacks, nightmares, body memories, intrusive and much much more. There is no stopping remembering this stuff and it sucks big time.
Daily Prompt; Can You Share a Positive Example of Where You’ve Felt Loved?
Can you share a positive example of where you’ve felt loved?
This should be an easy one but it is not as it hurts when I think that a high percentage of all the times I have had a positive example of love have happened when I have been an adult. I am not saying that I don’t have positive examples of how I felt loved, it’s just that I have more as an adult due to the trauma I experienced as a child.
If I had to choose a positive example of when I felt love is when a friend of mine who is the manager at PAWS Cat City where I volunteer at gave me a heart shaped stone as a reminder that I am loved when I am struggling. She had given it to me after she was able to grab a few at the end of a funeral service she attended. The person who passed away had a major influence on a lot of people’s lives including mine despite never meeting this person. Anyway, the pink heart shaped stone is a reminder of how loved I am and not just by the PAWS Cat City manager but by other friends as well as some family.
Daily Prompt; What is the Greatest Gift Someone Could Give You
What is the greatest gift someone could give you?
For me the greatest gift someone can give me is their time, love and friendship. Giving your time to listen to me or to spend with me is the greatest gift a friend or loved one can give me. It shows me that they care about me and love me. I know it seems hokey but it is true.
