Too Hungry to Go Back To Sleep

Posted on by Gertie

Good Morning, World!!!!! I am really sleepy and want to go back to sleep. Unfortunately, I am unable to go back to bed as I ordered McDonalds from Grubhub and am waiting for it. I do plan on eating it and then going back to sleep since I’ve been up about two this morning, Seattle time. I am just too lazy to make my own breakfast.

As I wait for my food my cat is wanting to play. So guess who is playing with Billie the cat; me that’s who. I love my cat so much. In fact I need to play with him more so he can loose some weight. In fact the vet informed me that playing with my cat will help Billie loose weight. Also I need to feed him less.

Frustration with WordPress & My Television

Posted on by Gertie

Hello, World!!! Right now I am frustrated with WordPress and my television. I am frustrated with WordPress because it appears they changed things around. I am frustrated with my television because a good portion of my channels aren’t working or choosing to not be on. I don’t have cable so i use anta which usually works fine. Now I have to pay for Hulu to watch live television. Wish I didn’t have to do that but if I want to keep up on the latest news its the best bet. I do subscribe to Netflix and wish they had live television.

On the plus side I’ve been cuddling with my cat while reading. I am really enjoying the book that I am reading. In fact it’s the first book of a trio of books. I love books that are a serious of books.

Therapy & Junk Food for Lunch + Cat Cuddles

Posted on by Gertie

Good Afternoon, World!! It is almost lunh tie here in Seattle. It’s almost twelve noon in my neck of the woods known as Seattle. As I am writing this blog, I am eating junk food for lunch.

I went to therapy. Therapy went well today and was extremely productive. My new therapist is great and has awesome boundaries. I think she is a good fit for me. We discussed how my cat is helpful for me and my recovery. My great is a great addition to my recovery for my mental health challenges.

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.\

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!!!

Too Many Thoughts Running Through My Mind

Posted on by Gertie

Good Afternoon, World from Seattle, Washington. Right now I have way too many thoughts running through my mind. I have been having many ups and downs this past week.

First I have my last day at my previous job due to being laid off. Then I have a job interview and two days later find out I got the job. I am taking the job and start at the end of the month. On that note I don’t think it’s the best job for me but it is something in my career of choice.

The day after I found out I got the job, I found out my mom has lung and they are still doing test regarding it including test on her memory loss. I’m hoping it’s not a brain tumor but will find out when an MRI and other test are done. But I’ve already told you this.

It just appears that when things get a bit overwhelming I tend to sign up for free courses WordPress does. I usually sign up for two or three of them and start one and sadly don’t finish them. Well, I signed up for four of them and it is my hope with what’s going with my mom’s health and me starting a new job that I actually start and finish them. I guess it’s a goal to help me get through both the good and bad stress I’ve been dealing with.

Speaking of stress, my cat, Billie Dean, has been helping me a great deal with the stress I have been dealing with. I love my cat, Billie so much. The thing I don’t understand is how Billie can love me so unconditionally. Hell, any pet has unconditional love.

I do not have much more to say in this particular blog post. I do want to thank you for reading my blog. It is greatly appreciated on my end that you the reader, read my blog. In fact if it was not for you the reader, reading my blog, I would not be writing my blog. So, I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart once again for reading my blog. Peace Out, World!!!
