The F Word: Freaked Out Over A Phone
I cracked the back of my iPhone XR and I have been staying calm about it. The phone itself still works it’s just the back that is completely shattered. I dropped it I don’t know where, or how, or even how many times because I’ve dropped it a bunch. I went to the Apple Store today to get it looked at I was then told I needed to make an appointment. The appointment time came (two hours later) and then it took them a bit to actually get to me. I guess I’m used to waiting, or I’m just a polite person, or I’m just easy-going. Or all three of those things combined. I didn’t mind waiting but apparently my friend did and he made that clear. I was a little annoyed as well but definitely not to the extent he was. maybe I’m just used to it, I expect…
The F Word: Future Plans Looking Forward to a More Balanced Life
As a person who is different I have always found I have faced more and or different barriers than others. I have compensated doing what I can do very well. I have always felt the need to go above and beyond to prove myself and to break down barriers in stigmas. I still feel this way but I now realize making life harder on myself For another person’s benefit is not something I necessarily have to do. I put that pressure on myself. And the people who want to be around me and like me for me shouldn’t be putting that pressure on me. Just seems like common sense now that I understand it but it took me forever to wrap my head around and now I have I feel as if life is going to be much different but different for the better. I’ll be living life for me…
The F Word: Friends Family & Thanksgiving
Happy Canadian Thanksgiving! With that I will say i’m weird when it comes to holidays. I don’t spend them with my biological family, why? because. Instead of chosen to spend holidays like Thanksgiving with friends and often it’s a really great time. This year though I decided not to do anything, I’m OK with that, and it meant I could stay in bed all day and do whatever I wanted. Why is this big for me? I am only now learning about myself and figuring out who I really am. I am an extravert for sure but I am also an introvert and love my alone time. For the first time in years I didn’t feel sad about not being with my family instead, I embrace it and loved every second of my alone time.
The F Word: F Equals Fatigue
I didn’t sleep a wink last night and my head didn’t help. Anyone with anxiety will understand. I ended up waking up a friend of mine and talking to her for probably like an hour and a half. Just trying to make sense of what was going through my head. I am the master of being able to think 12 steps ahead and then not Being able to let it go or go back to step one once I’ve gotten to step 12. So this ends up in me being rather fatigued today. I did absolutely nothing and that’s OK. I coloured in a colouring book and I got my groceries delivered so, in a way, I was adulting. To say I got no sleep would be a lie because I did get some sleep it was just in the morning probably for like six hours now that I think…
Not Blogging For 10 Days Changed My Personally: Nightmares From The Chair
The moment you realize you have not posted on your blog for upwards of 11 days and you don’t know what you have been doing with your life. I post on this blog because I love it but also because I “have to do it” or else I don’t feel like myself. Lately I have been trying to figure out why I don’t feel like myself Lol I can’t believe I didn’t realize it sooner and as I write this post I am immediately feeling better. I have this quote hanging in my office and Megan always keeps reminding me to do the things that feed your soul. I guess I was so used to doing 365 days and it became such a routine in my life that I could never get to this point of feeling not bad about myself but just a little more stressed and anxiety ridden.…
Nightmares From The Chair: Apparently, This is Only A Test
You know that moment on a hot day when you decide to go somewhere anywhere and the Jets a Frappuccino, and iced coffee, and ice cream cone something to cool you down. That was me today and I confidently put my Starbucks refresher in my cupholder and sped off into the parking lot only to spill the entire during on the ground and or my foot plate not having had taken a single step out of it. I know first world problems. But I really got to me. Like I can’t even carry my own drink. Like what is my life coming to. Then I call someone expecting maybe a little bit of sympathy and only getting, were you driving too fast. Like not the point. If you’ve been there you know the feeling. #MyCPLife #NightmaresFromTheChair
Nightmares From The Chair: When Disability Makes A Mistake
I love my job and I think I’m getting better at it being that I am fairly new. My job takes a lot of attention to detail which is something that I love and have. Many people may beg to differ but that’s just their opinion, others would agree with me. That’s just how the world turns. So last week I was working on something and totally saw three of the same thing meaning I could copy and paste my work once I finished it for the first one. Well, today I found that not to be true, what I thought was three of the same thing was actually three different things meaning I had to do the work all over again. Which I’m not mad about what I was more frustrated at was the fact my eyes let me down. I know I can’t help it and it’s part…
Nightmares From The Chair: Accident Prone
You would think after getting beat up by the Garmin took yesterday I would be careful around things like that. Well today I needed to grab something from my storage room which is cordoned off from another room using a curtain. Guess what fell on my head – yup not only did the curtain fall, but the tension rod holding it up fell as well. Now that hurt. I thought I may have had another concussion but no I think it’s just a goose egg. I don’t know what’s worse the factI am used to this or that it keeps happening. I need to watch out, at the same time I’m just me living life, and it just happens. I can’t wrap myself in bubble wrap, although knowing me a trip over it and end up on the floor. Now that would be funny. I should say, I make myself…
365 Days, Living In The Moment: Day 290
I am love this quote. Although it took me a while to get to the point of being able to ignore what other people think now that I am able to, for the most part, this quote means so much more to me. It is so true when you realize it. Be The frog.
