My New Year's Resolutions

 Hey, it's just another Monday for me... I usually write these earlier but today, I just wanted because I wanted to catch up with some stuff.

Before I go on with my new year's resolutions. I will talk about the past week.

Let's just say... it's was a snowy weekend xD We had a white Christmas first time in 10 years. Also, on Christmas Day, we had a small dinner at home which was good. So in a way... it was a good week.

Now this week will ring out the new year... so when I do post again, it would be a new year xD

So... with that in mind, as promised... I will give you my new year's resolutions.

• Be Healthier: I noticed that the pandemic caused many of us to gain weight and much more. This new year, I vowed to be healthier... so that includes eating better, drinking more water, and trying to exercise... but you must remember... I have no thyroid so my weight will be a heavy battle for the rest of my life.
• Keeping My Blog As Is: I felt like this is a better idea so that I can keep writing what I want on a weekly bases... now there will be challenges that may change my blog times a bit... but only when these challenges come up.
• Keep Reading: I have been reading more... but not enough... I want to be able to finish a book within a week. While that seems hard to do, it is doable since I was able to read a book in one day when I was younger. I miss doing that but I know I can't do that again. 
• Being More Creative: This includes writing and drawing and much more. I love art and writing a lot so I wish to do this more.
• Play More Games: I love games but I haven't been playing enough since Final Fantasy 7 Remake... so I may try to play more games this year... if I don't, then that's alright.
• Finishing Stuff That I Started: There's a lot of stuff that I started and just never finished... I realized this when I finished Gossip Girl on Netflix... and I need to up my game and get things done more.
• Save Money: A big goal I always wanted to do but due the pandemic... I kind of went and spent all of the money that I planned to save... maybe this time will be different... I hope.
• Worry Less: Yea... the pandemic made me worry more this year. I guess I wasn't the only one. So I will work on activities that would make me try to worry less. Those activities vary from meditating to journaling to yoga. 
• Plan More: I've started to use planners more... it's especially important for my health because I need to see a doctor at least every 3 months and my thyroid doctor every 6 months... so I can keep track of other activities that I do in that day. It will be helpful for other things. 
• Enjoying Life: This is very important to add in almost all my new year's resolutions. I would like to keep living life like I have no care what comes at me. 
• Do More Challenges: I've decided to do up to 10 challenges per month... but those are not going to always be 10. They will be a random number every month and those will be chosen at random. I don't plan on doing these challenges all the time because there are usually challenges that lasts only a week or challenges that are too tough to continue so that's why I would like to do more. Gives me something to do.

So... those are my new year's resolutions... Now I won't be doing all of these right when the new year comes... Most of these might start later or have already started... so I just like to keep these in mind in case I wish to figure out what my new year would be like.

Like always... things can change. Don't fret on things that never works out. Especially in my case... When you have no thyroid, you usually have no motivation to continue on with certain activities in life xD But it's alright, I won't try to give up too easily xD

Alright, what are your resolutions? And what do you think of mine? Comment down below.

See you all next week.

That's all.

With love,

Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas to All!

Merry Christmas! I know it's early to say this but just wanted to say it since it's this coming Friday.

Also, Happy Holidays to everybody else... since not everybody celebrates Christmas.

The past week has been pretty much... weird for me. I am alright, just been having problems with my right hip and knee... which I can't figure out why.

Unless it's where I'm doing the squat challenge... who knows.

As it was weird, it was also a boring week... I will be glad for this week to be done with.

I am going to do a special blog next Monday that will talk about all my resolutions for the new year.

So... just wanted to let you all know that is what is coming up next week...

So for this week to be nothing going on... I am just going to leave most of my blog journal blank but with ideas for my resolutions... what are your resolutions?

Alright, shall see you all next week with my full list of resolutions and their explanations behind them.

See you all on Monday, the  28th!

That's all.

With love,

It's Just A Boring Week

 I never gotten to the point to find a topic for this post... so this post will be really short...

Mostly because I didn't do anything much this week.

Unless you want to hear about me washing my hair and all that jazz...

Anyway, I did go to Walmart on Friday afternoon... of course, that's when my acid reflux or GERD started to bother me.

Sunday morning before everybody got up... Another attack... what it does... it attacks the back of my throat and burns a whole lot. It's annoying as hell.

I did go on a little rid on Saturday to find a foundation that was built with rocks... and no house there... that was fun to find. I may go back on day to do a small video of it.

Alright, since I didn't find a topic to talk about, I will keep this short... I should find a topic later today to post for next week... so keep that in mind... maybe. xD

See you all next week.

That's all.

With love,

It Was A Long Week, IMO

 Good Monday day... it is late morning and almost the afternoon here... strange how time sometimes feel non-existent, right? I think there was a scientist who proved that... not sure.

Enough of that... let's talk about what happened in the past week and today... well, I chose today (Monday) because I don't really do anything today... nothing that's important so it's a good chance to do my blog, right?

Tuesday was the first day of December... man... 2020 seemed to wanted to drag on... and so... I've started some challenges... those challenges were... photo of book challenge and a writing challenge... as well as an added bonus of using a website called drawspace. ( https://www.drawspace.com/ ). It basically teaches you to draw... you have a few free options and you guessed it... I am using the free option because I am dirt poor xD Might I add, mom fell hard this day... and well... she's alright but that's a long story.

Wednesday was a long day since my mom had to go to the doctor. Not because she fell but because she needed to refill her anxiety medication... for those that don't know... my mom suffers from panic attacks... they rarely happen but she does have a nerve problem that causes her to shake... so taking this medication keeps her from getting any worse. But I am glad this day was over with...

Thursday was finally a day that I was glad to take a break... I did search for a topic to talk about... so keep going to after I finish the next two days to see what I will talk about.

Friday, we went to Walmart to get our personal shopping done... what I mean by personal... it means that we needed to essentials for our daily living... whether it's toothpaste to vitamins... just stuff that you need for a healthy lifestyle. Gotta keep trying to take care of ourselves.

Saturday, we decided to watch the local Christmas parade... unfortunately... I didn't take any photos for this because it was very short and had mostly... firetrucks... believe me... you wouldn't like it.

Sunday, we mostly had a lazy day... we took a drive down to Mullins Station Road... a road that is where my dad works... but we just went to the coal yard and I tried my phone out for that... and well... you just have to check out my Instagram for those photos...

Now before I go into the topic... I am going to ask people if I should make a special page for this page... but I think I'll wait xD Alright... let's get to the topic in hand.

My topic is... NY Times 1,000(+) writing prompts... for those that don't know, I love to write...

You can view the page here:https://www.nytimes.com/2018/04/12/learning/over-1000-writing-prompts-for-students.html

So... instead of doing all of the prompts, I might try to do one of them for this post...

What Challenges Have You Overcome?

Let's think about this... I guess I could say... grief, health scares and depressing scares. Let's talk about each one... grief is a big one here... for those that don't know... I lost three family members to cancer... My grandpa had melanoma in his eye... and it spread to all over his body... but that's not what really killed him... he died from his bowels busted due to a colonoscopy test. That is scary to think about but it does happen very rarely. My aunt passed away from cancer that had spread all over her body. It wasn't long after she was diagnosed that she had passed. My grandma had cancer of the mouth... she suffered the most, but when she passed, I was sad but glad that she no longer had to suffer. Grief was different for these family members... I cried at most of them... Health scares is something that you have to deal with all your life... if you are not healthy like me and my mom... I had cancer on my thyroid and was lucky... since it was only stage one and didn't spread. My mom, however, has all kinds of problems... mostly she does have the tendency of falling easily. Last year, she had hurt her hip and broke her pelvic bone. She was lucky to not have any surgery but she did had a long month of recovery. Depressing scares... I wanted to say I was depressed for most of my young adult life... which I was... but after my aunt's death... I sort of snapped out of it... and rose to get away from that mood in one way or another. So... I had realized that you can get stronger... no matter what comes at you. A challenge just means something to face towards a good recovery.

And Another News...

I will keep my blog as is by weekly basis. I am going to start using bold for the days of week starting next Monday... and the topic will have a line go across to let you know that I am talking about something else. That way you all won't be too confused. Now I won't do these random topics every week... since there are some that I won't do xD

Alright, shall see you all next week.

That's all.

With love,
