Finally!



YAY! Got rid of some lingering junk through a FaceBook 'freebie' group. :D

It would of been nice to even get five dollars for something but they were just taking up space and useless to me.

At least they'll go to homes where people will actually use them and not just thrown in the trash.

Today was a lovely out for a day in the pool!

Lordyy, lorddd




I have been trying for months now to sell off what seems my entire life of collecting.. Lots of dolls, Disney toys, stuffed animals, old anime stuff from the teenager years, books, books, and more books, My Little Pony, wrestling magazines, etc..

I am so ready to just throw everything away. :|

I will even take five bucks for a lot..

I need everything GONE.

FUUUUU.

Random TV Stuff

— Watching Orange is the New Black with mom is SO, so painfully awkward.. With the lesbian sex scenes.. She decides to yell, 'I'm learning!'

-Started season three of The Crown. I still do not know why they couldn't just add makeup and the such to the previous actors but I do love me some Helena Bonham Carter. I miss Claire Foy and Matt Smith but the new cast is growing on me

-Going to start up Nurse Jackie next

Random Thoughts..

-Our beautiful pool lays dormant. Ever since the irritation of the corona virus that forced mom to stay home these past months; all she does is play Facebook games and sleeps. Of course, she earned this rest and I am more than know I am a 'big girl', and should just 'grow up'; but swimming alone is terribly lonely and just not fun. :/ I want to keep my promise to establishing 'goals' daily to keep away from total isolation - I want to start early morning swims starting at ten minutes and then on to twenty, thirty, and on to a hour

-I miss silly things like window shopping at malls and actually sitting down physically in a restaurant. But I must admit that I am more negative than positive with being able to return to the city I love and see my friends. Though I suffer greatly blue from isolation, I have been able to save quite a good sum of money in my bank account. This would be nothing and dwindle down to in a snap - due to traveling, meals, and misc. during my adventures. I cannot tell yet how I will react after the levels of the ban are lifted completely but I DO hope I can control my small yet good amount of money. 

-Along with the second issue above, no wrestling shows, no burlesque shows, concerts, or art trips anymore? The greatest city in the world is jam packed with fun and adventures all around.. Again, I do want and hope I can control myself. Everything in moderation, yes?

It Hurts

I have been going through a hazardous train wreck break up for the past few months. 

Perhaps I will gain the courage to crack open the crazed blender of treacherous feelings and be able to journal about it..

I have rejoined OK Cupid and actively looking for female companion again..

How I miss the affection..  But I have to admit. I feel like this will sweep the poisonous tracks left behind from my broken heart.    

I was talking to my brother on the phone and both can admit how we smother the people we think we're in love with..

It hurts. It just really, really fucking hurts.

Quarantine Life

I need to keep myself occupied, both mentally and physically.

- Actually call doctors and keep appointments. Since schools are closed mom can take me. My dad has even been kind enough to offer to take me.

-I do love to read but I go into terrible slumps and simply ignore my over sized 'to read' book pile. Must. Fix This.

- Swim, swim, and swim! We opened our pool on memorial day. I adore swimming and the first swim of the season was amazing!

Yikes! It is a little after seven am here and I have yet to sleep a wink! D:

With attempting the 'new year, new me'; adaptation, I've been staying on track with taking my medication and vitamins. I just started back up and the strongest anti-anxiety prescription is the target that has kept me up. Since graduating college, my sleep cycles have been up and down - sometimes I'll stay up on FaceTime till two am with my best friends, other times I my eyes will drop and off to bed I go even before the clock hits eleven pm.


I have had the iPhone 6 for year now and I just upgraded to the 8 yesterday. Sure, it's not the fancy newest model but I am happy to be back with Apple and it also pleases my dad since it is covered under the new insurance he's switched the family phones to. In between that, I experimented with the Google Pixel 2 but my clumsy self dropped it and the screen cracked - rendering it useless. Eeep! Yup, not my fondest moment and mom was pissed but we managed to not speak a word of it to my dad. My old 6 was pretty ancient so I'm giddy to have finally upgraded.

Thank you for the welcome back and kind words for my brother and my family - I very much appreciate it!

I reached out to my cousin via social media as I needed a extra bust of strength. Her mother, my aunt; has raised her and her sisters very well. They have always been joy to be reunited with during the holidays while growing up and my aunt has been very close with the Lord. She has such a big loving heart that always brought be such feeling of love as a child. Turns out the family on my fathers side found out about my brother and his latest offense. Ignorance can be bliss but with the truth being out there, my cousin informed me a friend of hers saw it online, recognized the last name and messaged her right away.

My brother requested we need him some books which are on the way to the jail and my cousins and aunt will be writing to him. I was shocked but my aunt reassured me that everyone has been praying for him.

The mood at home has been gloomy, mom has been so depressed with my brothers case and I know my dad feels the weight of the family on his shoulders..

I terribly miss the former livelihood of LiveJoural and blogging..I am so sick of social media, I really would like to leave Facebook altogether but I wouldn't have a way to keep up with my 'friends' list.. Give me the old blogging days back over Twitter any day!
I do need to force myself to sleep, I will be getting back to comments and reading your entries soon!

We will be going to court again. If he is produced from the jail, I will plead to the judge for leniency. He is facing 10-12 years, he will be rotting away in a cell. That's not your loved one, it's a addict. Drugs has destroyed my family and we are slowly breaking down. The insurance will only cover two weeks in a rehab in the hospital. It's a joke, it's simply not enough; insanity. The judge will rule and my heart will drop. He will never see me get married. He will never see my children being born and become a uncle. How many more missed holidays? How many missed birthdays?

Had a great talk earlier with my beloved cousin. She uplift my spirits and I let a good cry out. What has been eating at me - in a nut shell - my only sibling faces ten-twelve years in prison. Tomorrow morning, my dad and I will be representing our family and I will beg the judge for leniency.

A huge, distressing family issue has been eating away at my heart but I cannot put it into words at the moment. Instead - some happy things! I certainly do not need yet another new journal but I love the cover saying (I am only 4'10), it's small to tote around, and I'll be filling it up with dates from fun outing and just general happy events. And, how cute is that magnet?
