Ghostbusters Come to Seattle with Pictures to Prove It – Now I think it’s time to go Ghost Hunting with Friends

Posted on by Gertie

Good Evening, World!!! Right after I got off work, I took a Lyft to the pharmacy to pick up my medication which I just normally call my meds. Anyway, as I was walking home from the pharmacy, I saw this white SUV turned into the Ghostbuster’s car. I asked the nice man smoking a cigar if I could take a picture and he said “yes as long as you post somewhere on whatever social media shit you do. I want you to create a ghost hunt with your friends if you think it would be fun.” I told the nice man that I can get one going if not tonight it will be tomorrow night. He was pleased with the answer

The nice man smoking a cigar allowed me to take a picture of his Ghostbuster’s Car

So, I’m inviting two my friends in recovery, my best friend from high school, my partner and three colleagues from my work team. Everyone like the idea and will be ghost hunting tonight just for the fun of it. After doing some ghost hunting we will go get some food from Red Robin. I’m just glad my community like this idea and want to go with me. This going to be a fun night.

I do not have anything else to discuss or share or to write about in this particular blog post except that I can’t wait to tell you how the ghosts hunt went. I do want to thank you the reader 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. Again, thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading my blog. Peace Out, World!!!

Weekly Check-In

Posted on by Gertie

Good Evening, World!!! It is Saturday evening and that means it is that time of week to do my weekly check-in. Yes, it has been quite a while since I have done a weekly check-in. I am hoping to do my weekly check-ins as well as my weekly plans on the more regular basis.

This past week was the 4th of July which is Independence Day here in the United States. In fact, Independence Day was yesterday. I celebrated with some friends. We had plenty of fun, food and enjoyed the fireworks over Lake Union from a friend’s backyard. I enjoyed myself and I’m glad I went.

This past week was a good week at work. Hell, even when there are not so good moments or days at work, I still enjoy my new job. I love my job. I really enjoy my new job, and I am beyond grateful for it. The best part it is part time, and I get full medical benefits, and I greatly appreciate that I receive full medical benefits.

I do not have anything else to discuss or share or to write about in this particular blog post. I do want to thank you the reader 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.

Happy 4th of July

Posted on by Gertie

Good Evening, World and Happy 4th of July to all Americans around the world!!! It is a beautiful Independance Day here in Seattle with sunny weather. I am currently at a friend’s house celebrating the 4th of July with my friend group. We have had plenty of food all day and continue have food flowing till it is time to watch the fireworks later tonight from my friend’s backyard. I am looking forward to watching the fireworks from my friend’s backyard. I’m glad to be having fun with friends yet I am missing my cat, Billie.

Sadly, people who live in my apartment complex have been setting off fireworks which means I had to give my cat, Billie some anxiety meds before I left. I am paying a neighbor to check on Billie every two hours and to continue to give him a dose of his anxiety meds every four hours as his veterinarian suggested. I am glad my neighbor is willing to do this for me and Billie. I feel like paying my neighbor fifty dollars to take care of Billie is well worth peace of mind and making sure he is comfortable when I am not home when there is the scary noise of fireworks.

I do not have anything else to discuss or share or to write about in this particular blog post. I do want to thank you the reader 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.

Had An Awesome Birthday Weekend

Posted on by Gertie

Good Morning, World!!! It is Monday morning here in Seattle and it is no longer my birthday weekend. In fact, my birthday and birthday weekend was amazing. On my actual birthday, which was Friday, I received awesome news that I got a part time job at my dream employer. On top of that my friends and partner made my birthday amazing by taking me out dinner at my favorite restaurant which is Red Robin. My partner made me breakfast in bed the entire weekend. I have some amazing people in my life.

Birthday Weekend Continues

Posted on by Gertie

Good Morning, World!!! My birthday weekend continues, thanks to my wonderful partner, Junior. Yes, yesterday was my official birthday but Junior wants to make sure my birthday is wonderful, and it has been wonderful. My partner and I went out to breakfast with my best friend and her partner at the Blue Star Cafe and Pub. The food was delicious as always. Also, my partner and I will be going out to dinner with a group of our friends to Red Robin for my birthday. Red Robin is my favorite restaurant, and I love their food. I am grateful for awesome people in my life and that they want to celebrate me even though I am uncomfortable with it. I am uncomfortable with it due to the trauma I dealt with as a child but at least I know I have people who care about me.

I do not have anything else to discuss or share or to write about in this particular blog post except that I will post more about my birthday this weekend.

A Great Start to My Birthday

Posted on by Gertie

Good Morning, World!!! It is my birthday, and I am awake earlier than I would like to be on my birthday but there is a good reason as to why I am awake early on my birthday. I am at my partners, Junior’s place with my cat, Billie. Anyway, Junior woke me up and served me breakfast in bed. He made me French toast, scrambled eggs and chocolate milk. After breakfast in bed, Junior and I had some intimate moments. Intimacy that felt good and I am grateful for. I am so very happy that Junior is so respectful and loves me even with all my challenges. Junior making my birthday start special is so very awesome of him to do and it truly makes me feel special.

I do not have anything else to discuss or share or to write about in this particular blog post except that I hope I continue to have a great birthday.
