Pulling yourself back up!

Here we are  over halfway  through the year of 2022, and it just seems like we are still in 2021. It has been a long time since I have written anything about my journey. I can make excuse about how life got in the way of things, but I will not. It was simply because I did not do it. I am no longer going to make the excuse of life got in the way. So, on this Sunday morning I want to be open and honest about what has been happening to me. I have had a rough two years from work, family, relationships, and friends. I cannot put it all in this one blog, but I can give you what I can. Depression is what has held me in a dark place. I was fighting with my own self. I never wanted to give up on life because I knew I had people who depend on me. I was fighting for them and not myself, which put me into a deeper depression. I smiled, I cried, and I pushed away anyone who ever tried to love me. How can you give yourself to anyone when you feel lost? It's not hard for me to share my story beca

Day 2 of Fasting

Day 2 of my fast, and I thought I was going to eat the coconut cake that was sitting in my refrigerator. I am mad that I can't eat, and it is going to go to waste. I was off work today and tried to sleep the hunger away. My sister had the nerve to wake up and make breakfast. Talk about the worst way to wake up, but the best way to wake up. Lol, I was supposed to go to church today, but I missed it again because I waited for the Misses to come home, and she was too tired to do anything. I did cook today, and it was great. I made some fried cauliflower, fried rice, and roasted potatoes. I think this fast will help me get back to my better eating habits. I used to cook all the time, but I got back to old eating habits. I still haven't touched meat, but I have been eating everything sweet and greasy. I have to work tomorrow, but I don't want to go. Would it be wrong to call out even though it would definitely put them in a bind. Well I wont do it but I promise you I may if I w

12 days of fasting

Today starts the first day of my twelve-day fast. I can't eat from midnight thru 4 pm, but I can eat from 4 pm to 11:59. Talk about waking up and not being able to eat until 4 pm. Ugh, I am going to struggle with eating so late or not having coffee to keep up. We cant meat, which isn't a big deal because I'm a pescatarian. For anyone who doesn't know what that means, it means that I only seafood. I'm only able to drink water and real fruit juices. I did have a green machine (kale, spinach, carrots, and apples), and I tell you I was still hungry. Try being hungry, agitated, and not only that, I woke up to my cycle. Ugh, kill me now, and its only day one of the fast. I'm giving up my social media and dairy products. It going to be hard to give up my cheese, yall don't understand I love cheese. I went to church for the first time in an over a year. It felt so good to be in church, listening to the praise and worshipers sing. I love the message

2020 year of opportunity

Well, I can't believe it's already 2020, and I'm glad to be able to do still what I love. Like, I mentioned in my other post, I've missed writing for my audience and myself. To continue where I left off. I am in a relationship and have been for almost a year. I must say this has been the most challenging part of my year. We met on a dating website, and we instantly connected. I found myself engulfed in her positive spirit. She's a truck driver for a company she now hates. She used to be over the road but now she drives locally. When she was over the road things between us were dam near perfect. We video chatted, texted continuously each other, and the calls lasted forever. I miss those times so much now. However, I gave her a warning, yes, I said advice. I told her, "Don't skip chapters in our relationship. In other words, don't fall so fast. People tend to allow their feelings to take control instead of allowing things to progress slowly. How can anyo

New Year, New Me

Omg, it feels absolutely exhilarating to sit down and write again. It’s been sometime since I’ve taken the time out to release my thoughts out into the universe. I’ve missed it terribly; I can use the excuse that life has been preventing me from writing but that wouldn’t be the truth.   I lost myself when it came to my writing anything. I’ve been happy, sad and disappointed by so much that it held me from my true self. Whelp, not anymore, I’m feeling like a brand-new woman! Life has been good, let me fix that “it’s been an amazing”. 2019 has been so good to me that I really have no complaints. My career has really taken off. The last time I mentioned my job, I was a rural carrier (mail lady). Well now I am a supervisor and I manage the same employees, I once worked with. The transition wasn’t that hard. However, I did receive some negative energy from those who thought I shouldn’t have gotten the position. Hell, I even got back doored from the person who asked me if I was intereste

When it's over!

So last night after writing my last entry It made me think about the sacrifices I’ve made for the sake of others. It made me very upset and I cried because I couldn’t call my mom and talk to her about it. It’s okay to be sad or even cry but never allow it to put you in a dark space. It’s refreshing to cry and let go of the pain and hurt you feel inside. Growing up I used to hold in everything and by the time I was ready to talk about it, too much time had past by. Honestly, if something or someone makes you feel away about anything, I feel you should talk about it right then. Whelp, let me continue why I chose to still be in a friendship that was one sided. I stopped talking to her for a couple of months and during this time of not talking to her I found myself to be at peace. I started writing and sending out my morning messages but then she hit me up. I was hesitant to respond because deep down I knew she needed me in some way. I had mixed emotions because I cared about her and
