It’s An Every/Other Day Thing
I am very shy and uncomfortable around others–in person. Because I have hearing problems, I miss a large chunk of what people are saying in front of me if they turn away. … or if I’m over two feet away. Sometimes, I have problems understanding on the phone too. Now that I have worsening memory Continue reading

Quiet
Very quiet and less stressful. Now… if you mean absolutely no computers at all… I would say a natural disaster. No computers at all: Saying “no computers” can mean a lot depending on the person. ~J. Lyst Continue reading

I Can’t Be Alone In This…
I wish I could learn how to whistle. I’ve only been able to do it in reverse, which is not the point. I’ve seen people whistle with two fingers… no clue how on earth they do that. The most I’ve been able to do is chirp like a bird. Learned that from mimicking a parakeet Continue reading

…So Many Ways…
You feel so good for putting in your best efforts. Seeing the results in real time justs… It’s hard to describe really. It’s a pride thing really. I have several medical impediments that restrain what I can do physically as well as mentally. So, when I put in serious effort to do things around the Continue reading

I see things online, but I was never formally introduced to anything. Also, someone in my dad’s Continue reading

What I Could Or What I Should?
I should and could start doing meal prep all over again. It’ll help me be less stressed out when the time comes to heat up something to eat. I used to do that all the time and stored the food in bento boxes. I had debated tossing them since I’m not longer doing batches…. but Continue reading

Do We Need To Go There?
Music is an integral part of my life. I’ve either played music or sung it for most of my life. Without it, my life would be so quiet… and hollow. Even when I dealt with major depression as a teenager, music was how I expressed myself. Back then , I wrote a lot of poetry Continue reading
