I need something to change.
Like what?
All of it. Everything.
It sounds like you're getting some good changes in already, any others coming to mind immediately?
Idk…
Still a good start! 😊
Help me out here lol
Heh, I dunno... It's getting close to swimming season. Do you like swimming?
I think… my bedroom is overstimulating me. Like, visually. The energy, in a way. It’s hard to explain… I was housesitting for the past week, and I learned some things…
That makes some sense. What did you learn?
I need space, and white, clear walls, and quiet, and movement… And the time went so much more slowly there. To quote Courageous, “a better pace… a slower pace.”
Did you make it more that way? That can probably help a lot. I'm the opposite, I need not white clear walls, and noise. 😅
Yep, cleared clutter, washed dishes, folded and put away clothes :)
Why?
I've always been that way. I liked Where's Waldo books a lot, for example. Then again, I feel cheated by those books in a way... They made crowds of people seem fun and interesting. 😂
They are lol
They get stressful. 😅
I want fruit in my system.
Get ya self some! Perhaps a whole fruit basket. I'm starving my face off... Anything sounds good
What kind of fruit do I want? Hehe
Starving your face off sounds painful lol
You want mango And strawberries
Ewww I hate mango lol
Then twice the strawberries! And an orange
I meant like… new fruit. Hehe
New fruit? Then... Starfruit?
I haven’t seen those in the store yet lol
Lol, I'm not sure when to expect those. I kinda want to try them again. I forget what they're like...
I didn’t go shopping. So I’m stuck with pineapple and whatever canned fruit I have already. Lol
Pineapple is great as long as it's not canned. 😜
You’re such a hater. ;)
On this matter, yes. 😜
I bet you like cheese on apple pie too.
Uhh... It's ok I guess. 😂 I don't know why people think those go together so well. I think it's a symptom of American people realizing that sweet and savory go together, without having a real understanding of HOW they're supposed to go together.
My doctor wrote back to me about my stats…
Oh, what happened?
She basically said I’m fine and everything is fixable. :)
Bwaha, yes! I'm glad to hear that 😊
My stomach is expanding tho. I’m disgusted with myself every time I look in the mirror. And it’s barely any difference! Like… I’m still super lithe. I think most of it is in my head…
It totally is in your head. Did she have any good advice besides that?
The usual. Eat right and exercise.
I ate ice cream tonight… a new kind of mochi. I didn’t even like it… I ate it anyway. I’ll give the rest away at work tomorrow. I feel guilty for giving away food we paid for… Like wasting money.
It's not a total waste, you got to try it. What flavor was it?
I did keep eying it… so I guess you’re right.
It’s a variation on orange. Was good at first, but then it was too… idk. Zesty? Sour? Bitter? Something…
Hrmmm... Variation on orange eh? It wasn't yuzu was it? Yo... The best mochi is definitely black sesame. 𤤠Red Bean isn't bad either. Green tea is alright.
I also learned lately that I really really like matcha.
I have a challenge for you today. :)
What is it?
I want you to write an encouragement card and leave it somewhere today :) Maybe write something like, “You are wanted, you are loved, and you matter!” And draw on it :) Leave it somewhere for others to find :)
I feel antsy again. My room is a MASSIVE mess… I can see it above my phone while typing. It’s visual clutter and it’s affecting my mental health…
Go on a scary cleaning spree! I'll stay somewhere that I'm not in the way. 😅 Is how I always act when someone's on a cleaning spree
Heh. I’d make you join me XD Help me clean this mess so Kiara isn’t stressed anymore! Then Kiara is a much calmer person to be around XD
Also my mom and I actually did. It’s SOOOO much less stressful in here now <3
I'm glad you guys got it! 😅 I'm scared of people on cleaning sprees... They get mean. You wouldn't get mean would you?
Mean how?
Short-tempered and stuff
I’m always short-tempered. Here lately.
I think I have been too actually
Why?
I dunno. I'm bored with the same old problems never getting solved. I feel like I'm on my own half the time. I pretty much have to take care of everything at home, and work often feels the same unless it's super basic stuff
What kinda problems?
Like, systems at work never get fixed. This person can never find a job. That person keeps stringing partners along. One coworker calls in at least once a week. My mom can never get her sleeping schedule on track. I can't seem to lose belly fat, no matter what I try. People still, somehow, impossibly, believe in a certain administration. Things like that
My leg hurts :(
No bueno! For why?
My body was upset lol
Mine is too apparently. My body tries to make me feel like absolute crap over just anything at all. Especially workouts.
We’re getting old.
Nooooo 😫
Go read what I just wrote in the “Spread the Love Challenge” post. And then respond to one “needs reply” post.
So whaddya say? You in? ;)
I feel like I did one of those today with the one you brought to everyone's attention, but I'll think about doing another on a different sort of day soon. I don't feel up to much and I'm getting a headache. I just want to be done with work today so badly.
Sounds good. :)
What’s eating you today? :(
I just feel under the weather... Maybe an allergy thing .. maybe an ear infection.
And multiple systems went down at work today. It essentially doubles my department's workload... A lot of other people are highly inconvenienced too. They just never seem to fix this issue. Every couple of weeks, at least once, everything goes wrong
Go to sleep early tonight.
My job too. Always IT stuff going on lol
I definitely will. Luckily, I got to spend about 30 minutes resting. I feel significantly better right now. Almost time to clock out.
Yay!
Also, read a really good book tonight. <3
Heh, we'll see about the book thing. I might re-read some of my stories that I have going. I think I need a short break from writing them, it's become a slog lately.
A slog how?
Do you have Netflix?
I keep writing myself into parts where I don't know what's supposed to happen, and I keep regretting how I've written parts that I forced myself through. Makes it tough. 😅
Yeah, I've got netflix
Then back them up! Make the characters go through something crazy and nonsensical. See if that opens up the writer’s block. :)
Go watch Sing Thriller. But first, watch a bit of MJ’s Thriller first, unless you’ve seen it before lol. Sing Thriller is only 14 minutes :)
Sing thriller? I'll try to remember that. Of course I've seen the MJ version. 😉
Lol, most of what my character's go through is crazy and nonsensical. At least the crazy part. Say what you will about my stories, but they're not boring. 😅
Did you watch it? Hehe
Nothing about you is boring. :)
Lol, I did... Not badly done, seems like it could be an interesting movie.
Aww, thank you! ^____^ I want to be the anti-boring for you!
I feel yucky :(
What's wrong?
My body hates me, the car, everything else
My body hates me too... I'm glad to not have car problems, but I hope yours are over soon. Whatcha doing for the weekend?
What’s wrong?
We’ll try to get the car in on Monday.
I called out today, wasn’t feeling well. Basically stranded at home until work tomorrow.
I seem to have a lot of trouble losing weight as usual, and ive started getting really tired again. To be fair, today was groceries, and there were so many humans around.
I hope you feel lots better soon. You must rest well! It should be so much better after that.
You need challenges don’t you? ;)
I slept in embarrassingly late lol
Sleeping in can be super good.
Lol, what's that supposed to mean?
To get out of your head, out of your funk, and thinking about things in a new way <3
It was so late tho. Lol!
I challenge myself a lot.
Lol, I slept in pretty late today too. 😅
I meant challenges from me…
My sleep is so off. I stay up too late…
Fo sho, depends whatcha got for me 😁
I stayed up a bit too late too .. but then I really, really couldn't get to sleep also .. that's been happening most nights...
Does it get better?
Usually it does. For you it totally will
Why for me?
Because, you have so much life to you and you're trying so hard. 💪
Yeah… I’m like that movie. Fat, Sick, and Nearly D**d. I feel like that a lot of days…
I hope you're not sick, but you're definitely not the other two of those things. Never heard of the movie 😅 is it good?
