This year...

for new years, i plan on staying in. partly because i have to work friday night till 8ish and then saturday morning at 830 IN THE AM! bless our supervisors and their schedule making, but seriously...how can you schedule 20 something year olds and except them to come into work sober?? on new years? not going to happen, what will happen are people are going to come in late or not come in at all, OR come in still wasted....

I, this year...I am going to to stay in. For the first time in EVER, I dont want to go out for new years. I just want to be home in bed at midnight and go to work in the morning without a massive head injury that i call a hangover. i just cant handle hangovers anymore. being sick and on the brink of death just doesnt seem fun to me anymore. and the recovery time takes longer for me now. i dont know what it is about age, but it really does catch up to you. recovery takes longer, energy and tolerance are not the same anymore either!

being sick right before christmas sucked! usually i get bronchitis before the year is over....but this  year, i avoided bronchitis but got the flu. i didnt know just how sickly i always, but i guess i am. my family and several friends told me that im always getting sick....it didnt occur to me that they were right. i do get sick pretty easily. i consider myself healthy, but i guess my family and friends are right. i do have a tendency to pick up whatever is going around easily.
anywho, i am slowly getting over the flu, but it takes soooo much out of me!! being sick is physically exhausting! i just want to get back to being normal! :)

Happy New Years!

Cultivating relationships

Maintaining relationships demands effort; it's a mutual journey. Each party contributes, and amidst this exchange, bonds form—be it friendships or deeper connections. Some relationships necessitate more investment; sometimes, it feels like you're carrying the weight alone, striving to sustain the connection. Personally, I've struggled with nurturing friendships; perhaps due to youthful ignorance, where life felt boundless, consequences seemed distant, and self-centeredness prevailed. As age brings maturity, many friendships naturally drift away amid life's chaos and the challenges of adulthood. Reflecting on my past interactions often astonishes me; how did I manage any healthy relationships back then? Truthfully, I didn't. Those who I once considered friends, or who considered me as such, have vanished, leaving behind only fragmented memories—thanks, memory loss. Although forgetfulness might seem a blessing, the impressions we leave behind persist. This notion unne...

Made it into 2025 injury-free—well, mostly! 😆 Besides the usual aches and pains (and that one time I threw my back out, but we’re not counting that—that’s just seasoned wisdom kicking in). On the bright side, my diabetes is well under control! My latest doctor’s appointment went great—numbers are low, bloodwork looks good, and I just need to keep moving forward. Meanwhile, the hubby is down with the flu, so he’s quarantined in the bedroom while I’ve taken over the couch. Work has been hectic. We’ve been short a recruiter, which means more work on my plate. We finally hired someone new, but she’s still in training. She seems nice—quieter than the rest of us, but then again, our little group is a bit on the weird side. On the fun side, I got a new tattoo—matching with my bestie! 💉✨ And now, I’m seriously considering a septum piercing. Call it a midlife crisis if you want, but I say, why not do it while I still can? I haven’t spent much time at the barn this year. Then again, t...

I’m really struggling with watching my parents grow older. My mom’s memory has declined a lot, and walking has become difficult for her. She’s not active anymore—she mostly stays at home, only doing small chores around the house. She has very little motivation to do anything beyond that. My dad takes care of so much for her, and I try to keep her going by spending time with her, but our conversations feel so different now. As for my dad, his health is okay—not great, but manageable. I’ve mentioned before how hard it is to watch him face the physical limitations that come with age. He’s always been the kind of dad who could do it all—fix anything, carry anything, help with anything. He’s been my rock, always there to support me. I don’t think he ever imagined he’d still be helping his 40-year-old daughter with Jeep mods—but knowing him, I’m sure he secretly loves it. My dad and I are both facing new health challenges right now. I’m scared—but thankfully, mine isn’t life-threatening, as...
