One must experience the darkness to fully appreciate the light.
You guys will appreciate this. This morning, My mother and I were watching the news and generally disagreeing with everything being said. I got up to get myself some coffee when the commercials started. There was one featuring a poorly dressed man talking about retirement accounts. This guy was wearing a blue dress shirt with a … Continue reading Day 137: I can’t sometimes
Have you ever felt lonely while being surrounded by others? Many people have called this a strange otherness that they have difficulty living with or describing. I've fallen victim to such feelings myself, more often than I would like. My therapist would blame this phenomenon on my mild anxiety disorder and usually I would agree, … Continue reading Day 136: The Stranger
I...kinda... don't... wanna be here anymore. I don't know what to do with this feeling.
Mondays are always difficult for me. Not that my work day was bad, just that I have very little energy. I get drained much quicker. Like now. I'm worn out and there's still a boy scout meeting later. * sigh*
I don't spend enough time with my mother. She isn't that old and doesn't need to much help, but I do like when I can help her around the house.

I'm finished for the semester!! It feels so amazing, I can't even describe it. Freedom until August! I'm going out tonight and nothing can stop me...
It's been raining for 48 hours straight. Plus, its windy and cold. Not cool, nature. Not cool. I wouldn't mind the rain, but I don't need the cold. I'm over cold weather. The flooding in the area is getting bad too. The river is majorly swollen and many businesses and farms are feeling the pain. … Continue reading Day 130: More Rain
Trying to stay strong is taking its toll on me, for sure. I've managed to catch another head cold. Everything above me neck hurts and breathing is difficult. I can't fall apart just yet. I just need to survive until the weekend. Things will be fine. I know it. I need a fun distraction. In … Continue reading Day 129: Q & A
Today sucked a lot of energy out of me. I'm sure its just the end of the semester crunch taking hold. I'm giving work and my classes everything I've got and it's starting to show. College school and work school are almost finished and I just want to relax. Sadly, I have … Continue reading Day 128: Finish Strong
