Pandemic presents


No walk today! I actually woke up sleepy, tired and out of it. Thank you Texas allergies! So I'm listening to my body... Slept a little later than usual and am still planning on doing my Metabolic Renewal workout for the day. I haven't missed one yet! It's also work work day at the jobby so I'm not going to beat myself up-its kinda miraculous I do all this stuff before work. I'll be out walking again tomorrow. It's super important to listen to your body when it's talking to you.
This is my morning breakfast every day except one day on the weekend (usually Sunday) I will have eggs and whatever else. A proper breakfast. But I really do love my breakfast shakes and getting my greens in without really tasting them- win win!

I've been slowly on track taking care of business and I called the hospital yesterday after seeing an email I owed $20,000 + 
What the?! The guy on the other end of the phone said that all my cases were closed with them. My recent Covid stuff was accounted for and in the clear. The numbers I was seeing were old debts from 2016 ??? Endometriosis stuff no doubt and some pneumonia but $20,000 and there were no surgeries...wow! There's nothing to be done for all that and I can't worry about it. 2016 and in collection, it will just have to fade out over the years. It was good news all the Covid stuff is cleared off though. I'm trying to be responsible and accountable and right all the stuff that I possibly can right now. I am full on in TAKING CARE OF BUSINESS MODE. 💪 I finally have my credit in Fair standing and got approved for a credit card with my bank. I don't like credit cards but we're in a pandemic and I think a little emergency cushion may come in handy. So that's my boring life right now, drinking chocolatey salads and trying to fix my credit. So boring adulty. So strangely satisfying 😂
I really believe this strange time out may be a productive thing for me in the long run... Covid made me get up off my butt and start making changes. Death close to home made me realize the time can't be wasted. Is the pandemic bringing anything good to your shores?

Words!

  Hello! I haven't blogged since last year. Even writing the word "blog" felt foreign and weird! I have actually been writing stuff on my Patreon account so if you've missed the updates you can sign up for free over there. There is also an option to pay a few dollars a month to help support me as an artist and get "extra" content- in case you are of that mindset and either way- thank you for caring about the art adventures.  I have missed blogging actually. I guess I like to make words, string them together like a pretty necklace and let them live their own expressive life wrapped around me.  Times are different. Times are weird! But I guess you know that. And also times are the same and as old as time. Is it really more terrible than any other time or are we humans just more "connected" to the propaganda and daily bad trip in a way that is insane and unhealthy? Either way I do my best to keep my sanity and I don't believe about 98% of what I s...

Taming the monster

What started as me deciding to spend 30 minutes picking out clothes to donate from my closet .. Turned into about 2 hours of folding t shirts, jeans and deciding winter was far enough away that all sweaters and coats could be packed away. My closet was a walk-in diaster. My cat had lived in it all winter, knocked stuff down, slept on it, fuzzed up clothes and built forts. No lie.  I had been living in the same two pairs of jeans and 5 shirts off my bedroom floor (closet #2 😂). First things first, all the T shirts from OLD JOBS were the first to get put in donation pile. I don't need memories of "that place" and they were all too small, waaay too large or tan/beige/grey ..all the wrong unhappy colors that just say JOB when you look at them. Bye! So that happened yesterday. Major project that still needs work but for now it is peaceful enough to my brain to leave it alone. I have two large loads of laundry to do because my clothes look like...well like a cat has been sleep...

It's the little things...

I will eventually get back to posting about art 😂 but I lost my first pound with just 3 days of dedicating myself to Metabolic Renewal...and this is me playing fast and loose because A. I did not buy their shakes I'm doing my own. So I don't really know their caloric/nutrition value vs mine. B. Getting 10,000 steps a day on my pedometer.... doesn't happen. That's almost two hours of walking a day. I get 8,000 or 9,000 before the Texas heat or work calls it off. C. Haven't followed any of the meal recipes. I've been winging it with good sense. I will get closer to their instructions in time ( like maybe next week) since I paid for it. My body is SORE AF. It's totally getting put through the paces and I'm lucky there are modifications for pudgy newbies like me. But 1st lb down is a good feeling because seeing the scale move down is what I'm after. I'm pretty proud of myself for yesterday in general..did my workout, a walking session THEN WENT ...
