Hey There.

Wow. So, no one reads this anymore.

I guess I just want to talk to myself about my life then. I have an interview tomorrow at a convenience store. I will be leaving the job I've had for 2+ years to go there; however, I won't be leaving for a few months because they have to train someone in my position.  So, I will be working three jobs for a few months.  It's pretty stressful at times but I want to go somewhere so this is what I have to do at the moment.

I'm applying for school in the fall. I'm going to go for child care.  The first step is a certification course that is 3 months long I think.  I'm excited to get a real job and move on with life.  Tired of working two or more jobs to keep up.  Especially now that I have a car to worry about.

Hmmm.  My life is kinda dull.  I work a LOT and am hardly ever home unless I'm sleeping, but a lot of times I sleep over my friend's house and also spend a lot of time over there other than that.  I'm trying to make more time for myself and get back into art and maybe sell some of my work.  I made an Etsy account and hope to do well with that.  I'm really looking into making something of myself someway, somehow.

Since I last posted I got my very first own personal laptop! Which I am posting from now.  It's so great to have my own.

I'm not in a very contemplative mood at the moment.  I think if I were high I would be.  And I'd also make some really awesome art pieces.  But I have an interview tomorrow and will be drug tested soon so I'm hoping I pass and then I can smoke again..  I never really was into that stuff before, but a few weeks ago I was suffering from severe sciatic pain and a friend smoked me out.  Since relying on it for a few days straight, I came to want it more and more.  Now I look forward to when I get this job and after the test when I can go back to doing that.  I feel so much more free and worry-free, carefree, nothing bothers me and life is so good.  It just really opens you up.  I'm not trying to advertise, it's not for everyone, but it's really helpful to me.  Anyway.

I guess that's all. I don't know why I bother to come back and post for no one to read. But I don't care.

The Way Life Was, and is Now

Yeah, yeah, I know it's been a bajillion years since I've posted. So sue me.

Things have been going well.  In the last few months I've been very busy getting my life together more, and overcoming personal challenges as well as achieving some goals.

1) I got a car! I drive everywhere and anywhere.  I visit my Grandmom who lives 25 miles away, I've visited one of the group homes I've been in last week, which is about 30 miles away.  I don't have to wait around to get a ride anywhere.  I see my friends and go out way more often.  It's just made life SO much easier.

2) I just got a second job working at a deli.  My best friend's mom works there now, but sadly they will soon be moving out of state so she recommended me to take her place.  It's kind of bittersweet, but it's definitely a step up.  Maybe soon I will be making enough money to move out.

3) I've been at my IBW for about two months now, and I'm doing very well.  However, recently I've been trying to eat healthier and exercise because I've been gaining weight at a rather fast pace and I want to stabilize.  So far I've lost about two pounds but I'm not intending to keep losing.  My natural weight is usually around 115-120 and I'm a little over that so once I start getting back into a healthier routine it should go back to normal.

Generally, life has been great.  Sometimes a little hectic and stressful.  There's been some anxiety, sure. I'm still grieving over the loss of my Pop-pop (he's passed since I last posted), but I'm trying to deal with it as best as I can.  Yes, there have been some tears, no, I'm not perfect (who is?) but I'm definitely making self-improvements.

Oh! And I'm now the owner of three fishies and a frog :) I love them so much. They're the only pets I can have in this apartment since they live in a tank and don't make any noise or mess (except in the tank of course).  I love taking care of them and I often will talk to them and make kissy faces, and one of them will actually swim up to the tank and make them back (it's sooo freaking cute!).  They definitely brighten up my day.

We're moving again soon once we find a place we can afford.  Hopefully they will allow us to have pets, in which case my mom and I were thinking about adopting from a rescue shelter.  Fish are cool, but it will be nice to have an animal I can touch and play with.

Anyway, I will try to this blog somewhat up to date.  I do have a very busy life nowadays, so it's hard sometimes, and mostly I just don't feel like sitting here and blabbing about my life (that's what therapy is for).
