It’s Pretty Embarrassing
So, I’m in a family where I had an uncle and great (great??) grandfather with names that began with “Jul…” So… my mother, who did not actually name me, mind… she told me that I was the last of the family jewels. I don’t think she understood what that means. At least, I hope she… Continue reading

Strange Desk Fellows
So… this is odd. I’m for the first time using my brand-new keyboard. It’s very different from my ergonomic board in a few ways. The “wrist rest” is collapsible, which gives me more space cos I’m keeping it collapsed. The design reminds me of the 1970s keyboard my mother had. She had these ridiculously extended… Continue reading

That’s A Tough One…
I don’t travel often, but if I did, I would love to return to Canada. I’ve never been on a plane, so it would be a long bus ride to get there. My last trip in that direction was around 2019. I loved being at Niagra Falls. It was so peaceful there. I know there… Continue reading

I Don’t Know What To Even Say About This
It’s currently 4AM in the morning, and I had a day planned. One of grocery shopping, my lesson, some driving… but right now, I’m struggling not to pull my hair out. I went to plug in my vacuum cleaner and saw bite marks all over the cable and even where it plugs into the machine.… Continue reading

Is It Whoa Or Wow Or…
When I look back through my folder—because yes, I have a folder for my blog posts—it’s so very strange to not see anything or see gaps in days. As part of my therapy, I try to maintain a daily blog. If I was able to physically write, I would obviously have a paper-bound diary. Way… Continue reading

I Talk About It All The…
The Sims 4. I hadn’t played it since it was Sims 2, but after surgery in 2019, I started to play to get my mind off things. When you’ve had a hysterectomy at a young age, you sometimes can have some psychiatric trauma from it. Especially if you wanted a family. Other people, who either… Continue reading

Many Foods
I enjoy making desserts, but I make a lot of other stuff, like crackers, tortillas, spring rolls, etc. I would love to make some liver and onions with gravy. I can’t seem to make gravy properly at all. One day… ~J. Lyst Continue reading

… Really??
Cats! Cats! Need I repeat it? Cats! They’re a lot easier to maintain than dogs. For one, I have back problems, so it would be senseless for me to pick up an animal that I’d have to walk. Then have to pick up its poop during the walk. With cats, I use the waste liners,… Continue reading
