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.

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.

Still Waiting for Amazon to Deliver Packages

Posted on by Gertie

Good Afternoon, World!!! I am still waiting on two packages I ordered from Amazon. One package has a couple of books in it while the other has a couple recovery related workbooks. I know I should have had them delivered to an Amazon locker, but I also didn’t realize that one of the packages would be delivered a day late. I just hope I get both packages today especially since I paid extra money for the math books to be delivered yesterday. Sadly, Amazon refuses to refund the extra money I paid for delivery to happen yesterday regarding the math books I ordered.

As I have been waiting on my Amazon packages, I have been dividing up my time between doing some math and recovery related workbooks. As I have been working on the math and recovery related workbooks, I have been eating some Girl Scout cookies. I love Girl Scout cookies especially the Thin Mints. Who doesn’t like Girl Scot cookies? I am so very grateful for Girl Scout cookies.

Posted on by Gertie

Good Afternoon, World!!! It is 12:06 in the afternoon here in Seattle and I am back home from having breakfast with my friends. Two of my friends took me out to breakfast. They took me out to breakfast to one of my favorite restaurants called the Blue Star Cafe and Pub. It is in the Wallingford neighborhood of Seattle. In fact, it by the novelty shop Archie McPhee’s.

Feeling Emotional

Posted on by Gertie

Good Morning, World!!! It is seven twenty in the morning here in Seattle and I am feeling emotional. I am feeling emotional because I am missing my parents. Sadly, both of my parents died within two months of each other. My mom died of lung cancer and my dad died in hospice care from aspiration pneumonia. It has only been three months since my mom died and one month since my dad died. The grief is really intense at this moment in time. I wish both of them were still alive. I miss both of them very much.

The grief of losing both of my parents might be intense right now but I am grateful for the friends I have in my life. In fact, two of friends are taking me out to breakfast. They are taking me to breakfast at Blue Star Cafe and Pub in the Walingford neighborhood of Seattle. In fact, Blue Start Cafe and Pub is near the novelty store Archie McPhee’s which is a big deal here in Seattle. I have some amazing friends who care about me and willing to take me out to breakfast for no reason other than they care about me.

Up Too Early & Plan for the Day

Posted on by Gertie

Good Morning, World!!! It is four fourteen in the morning here in Seattle and I am up way too early. On that note I also ended up going to bed really early for me last night which explains why I am up way too early. I got a really good night of sleep for a change and that is a good thing for especially after my insomnia was acting up.

Two of my friends are planning on taking me out to breakfast later this morning. We are going to one of my favorite places to eat called Blue Star Cafe & Pub. It is in the Wallingford neighborhood of Seattle. In fact, it is near Archie McPhee’s which is a fun novelty shop which my friends and I might end up going to after breakfast. I am so very grateful that I have friends who care about me and like to treat me to meals especially my favorite meal of the day, breakfast.

A Quick Saturday Afternoon Check-In

Posted on by Gertie

Good Afternoon, World (again)!!! It was my goal to stay home all day, but I realized I needed to go get groceries as I didn’t have much to eat here at home. So, I went grocery shopping. Well, technically I went to the farmers market first. When I went to the farmers market, I bought me a breakfast sandwich that one of the venders sells. After eating the breakfast sandwich, I then went grocery shopping and bought some essential foods. Sadly, I couldn’t afford eggs once again.

Now that I am home and have put away my groceries, I am now sitting down with my cat, Billie in my lap who is purring up a storm. As my cat, Billie lays in my lap purring I am about to start some artwork. In fact, I am going to be doing some diamond art/painting. The diamond art/painting that I am currently working on is that of a tuxedo cat. It so happens I am fond of tuxedo cat and the reason being is that my beloved cat, Billie is a tuxedo cat. I am so glad that I found a diamond art/painting project with a tuxedo cat as it will reminds me of my cat, Billie.

Friday Evening Plans

Posted on by Gertie

Happy Friday, World!!! I have had a pretty productive day so far today and I am proud of myself, and it is few minutes after one o’clock in the afternoon here in Seattle. I hope me saying that I am proud of myself for a productive day doesn’t sound like I am conceded or narcissistic. I volunteered this morning for Alley Cat Project, did an entire chapter in a recovery focused workbook and started a continuing education course that I am halfway through already. Oh yeah before I forget, I also did some artwork. I worked on some diamond art/painting as well as did some coloring. I not only feel like I was productive today, but I feel very accomplished.

After having a productive and accomplished, I am planning to hang out with friends in an hour or two. My friends and I are going out for a late lunch. We are going to my favorite restaurant which is Red Robin. I love Red Robin and something many people do not know is that Red Robin started here In Seattle. Red Robin starting here in Seattle is not the reason why I love eating there so much. The reason I love Red Robin so much is because they have awesome food.

After dinner at Red Robin, I plan on coming back home and having a quiet evening at home with my cat, Billie. I plan on two main activities when I return home from Red Robin which are reading and doing some artwork. The book I am reading is the second book in a six-book series. It is a queer dark fantasy book as is the entire book series. As far as artwork goes, I most like will be doing a diamond art/painting. The diamond art/painting that I am currently doing is that of a tuxedo cat. Part of the reason why I chose to do a tuxedo cat is because my cat, Billie is a tuxedo cat.
