Dreams, and day dreaming

I'm writing this after just waking up from an afternoon nap in which my grandmother appeared to me and said, "your uncle Wayne just passed away" and I responded with "does mom know" and my grandmother faded away.

Birthday month blues

Well, it's that wonderful time a year again where I 'celebrate' another trip around the sun. I don't know what it is that causes depression to hit me every year around my birthday.

If there was just one thing that you were able to find out about your future what would it be? And how would knowing that one thing change who you are today? And why...
My experience with The Freestyle Libre 3 CGM
So, after a recent visit with my Diabetic care doctor, I was prescribed the Abbott Freestyle Libre 3 Continuous glucose monitor. Now in the past I have tried the Dexcom, starting out with the G5 (which in my opinion was the best version and should have become their stopping point) and the G6 and then...
Mental health classes and book writing
Man, I have hit the ground running this year with completing 5 courses so far, and getting the certification to become a Digital Navigator, and now this latest class when finished will give me a diploma in mental health. As for the book, at the time of writing this, I only have about 47 more pages to write. I am trying to keep a good working balance between writing, schooling, and my day-to-day...
2024 🤔
Well 2023 was sure a shit show towards the end. July was probably one of the worst months I had in a while. Still trying to recover from some of the bs. The holidays came and went just as quickly. And New Years, well that was just another day. I didn't make any resolutions this year. I only set out to take a few more classes and to get things in order. My house, my car, and my health are all...
