If You Can Find Me
Fantastic news! I don’t have glaucoma… which was a serious concern when looking at how high the pressure was in both eyes. Optic nerve looks good too. No damage, thank goodness! Weird news! For the first time in over a decade, I’m getting a new pair of glasses that I can use. The most recent… Continue reading

I Think We Covered This??
I wanted a fresh start. Because I was super uncomfortable with what my prior name was tied to. So…. a friend suggested this name. Thr last part is after Lyst fashion… which I had no clue existed. And I really like Juliette. 😄 Sorry it wasn’t more dramatic. ~J. Lyst Continue reading

Good Question
For many years, I just trudged along… being moved/shoved along by others. My identity or self of self as a person was pretty muted. I have been told by a very close friend that I’m too complacent. That I “roll over and take it.” Which was true in the past, I’ll admit. I am outspoken…… Continue reading

I Have TeRrIbLe Timing!!
August 18, 2024 @12:58AM To give myself a chance, I’m starting off my chores tonight. I have 17 of them for today… Giving it a roundabout number of 10 minutes per chore, that’s 170 minutes… Nearly 3 hours. … I am marathoning “My 600-lb Life.” And eating seaweed… @1:38AM Okay… so the bathroom needed some… Continue reading

… I live here. Really. I don’t travel much outside my home. There are many places for tourists and sightseers to visit. Residents can do the same, but with my deteriorating energy levels, I have no umph for anything. ~J. Lyst Continue reading

Part of my mood boost is the newest performance of Celine Dion at the closing of the Olympics Opening… Continue reading

Yes, So It’s Like Literally…
Literally. Like totally, literally. That word seems excessively overused. I know I use it often in my blog posts. For a change of pace… I’ll use words that can be deemed as “repetitive” and/or “generic” in my writing. From there, I travel to thesaurus.com to find alternative words. I have this whole thing about not… Continue reading

So, Does It Really Matter?
I slept most of today. Which is insane. Now, I’m working to get cleaning up and done tonight. I’m inching around the dining room, but I can’t ignore it forever. If I focus enough, I realize now, I can get most of all the rooms done in short order. Then, work on spot-cleaning areas later… Continue reading

Calling In Backup
I’ve been trying to avoid addressing this, but since my life a pretty open book, I might as well note it as well… I’ve been pretty transparent about problems involving my health, but every time I hear something new, I get more frustrated. I was scheduled to see a neurologist to figure out why I… Continue reading
