    The holidays came and went in a whirlwind as I expected they would. I baked so many cookies and have had so many sweets, I'm already tired of it lol. I tried making old fashioned brown sugar fudge for the first time last week and.... it failed. At least I failed in a good way -- I didn't get it...

    How are you feeling?

    I've been a bundle of sad, lonely, and tired this week with the occasional sprinkle of temporary happiness. I know this is mostly my PMDD and probably SAD and it will pass in the next couple days, but man do the days drag on when I'm feeling like this. 😣

    I'm eager for the holidays to get here and be done, but at the same time I still want to enjoy them. I feel like I still have so much to do and so little time to do it. Christmas gifts are almost all done. Yay! Of the handmade gifts, the serving trays are my favorite. Not gonna lie, I'm a...

    Cruella - 8/10 Watched this a while ago and loved it. Never would've pegged Emma Stone for a young Cruella, but I think she played the part pretty well. The real star of this movie was Emma Thompson, of course. Always love seeing her. She knocks it out of the park every time, and of course this...

    My mood has not really improved all that much this week thanks to work. I'm so tired of the overtime. I'm so tired of being tired. I'm so tired of coming home, going right to bed, getting up in the morning and doing my usual routine, then having to go back to sleep again before leaving for work...

    My negative feelings are starting to subside a little, but I'm still feeling a bit on edge today. I'm mostly just tired. Tired of working, tired of not having time to myself, tired of going like a hamster on a wheel. This morning -- the one morning where I was looking forward to having some...

    When I'm down.. (Not for the squeamish)

    That's so rough, Pug. I'm so sorry. :( It sucks feeling like you're stuck in a void with no way out. I hope things can get better for you soon.

    I've been in a weird headspace the last couple days. I want to write (type) about it but I don't know what to even write to organize my thoughts. I'll probably make a post sometime this week or next when I get some time to myself where I'm not trying to sleep. Been feeling grumpy, anxious...

    Covid has hit my department fast and hard and I suspect it will only get worse with the holidays. Three people are already out because of covid -- either they have it or were in contact with someone else who had it. Our department in the company is one of the smallest, so having three people out...

    I've been fighting fatigue this week pretty hard. The last couple nights I've found myself tossing and turning a lot and having weird dreams. I'm not sure what's causing it exactly. Mattress sucks? Keep getting thrown in to working overtime again? Stress from holidays coming up? All of the...

    Holy hell what a work week I had. 6 days, 54 labor hours. I'm exhausted and grumpy. I honestly haven't done a damn thing today besides braving crowds to pick up some last minute groceries at the store this morning. I also don't feel good because my GI system is messed up from this work week. Too...

    How are you feeling?

    Exhausted. It's been a long work week. Have already put in 46 hours and still have today to go. At least I get the holiday off, but I feel like I'll still have no time to rest. 🙁😣

    Pokemon BDSP is out and I have to say I think I'm relieved I didn't end up pre-ordering it after all. I'm very disappointed to learn that there is zero Platinum content in these games and it's literally an exact copy of Diamond and Pearl, just updated for Switch. I mean, I guess there are some...

    I have an original Charizard as well. I never pulled it myself though, I got it in a trade somehow but I don't even remember what I traded lol. Came to me damaged but little me didn't care because it was the coolest card to own at the time. I guess it still is, but I have other holos I love more.

    Man that sucks about your cards being stolen. I actually had almost complete sets of the Jungle, Fossil, and Neo Destiny as a kid. I never got to finish them and when I quit collecting I gave away over half of my collection to a cousin. Thankfully I didn't get rid of too many holos, as I still...

    I've started getting back into collecting Pokemon cards. I haven't collected any cards in nearly 20 years. The last set I purchased was Aquapolis, and I was so disappointed in the new look of those cards and a lot of the art styles that I quit collecting them. Just like at that same time I hated...

    Oh absolutely. My overall emotional wellbeing has taken a complete 180 since not being active on FB and starting Prozac. I have felt 1000x's better and my mind is so much clearer too. Like I said I only downloaded it for a sale post I had to make, then I stupidly kept it around and fell back...
