September 2024
Where did the month go?! No, seriously, it just started. Time has no meaning. I couldn’t tell you what I did this past month, beyond working and not working, which is perhaps a little disheartening but seems to happen more and more as I get older. Time is just ticking by, days on a calendar…

Over It
Over what you may ask? Everything. And I do mean everything. Normally, despite my cynical opinions, I am (secretly?) optimistic about things but lately (noticeable in previous posts) I’m disappointed, grumpy and there is nothing hidden about it. I’m feeling negative about everything from work to the future to life in general. This isn’t a…

June 2024
Well June failed to step up and kick the year back onto a better path. My hope that at this halfway point in the year life would feel more settled was dashed and it is the opposite, I’m feeling more stressed and unsettled than ever. Things that I hoped would be resolved aren’t moving forward…

Maaaaaaaaay…
This month seemed so long and yet it is over as we enter June. I am still waiting to settle into my new routine, the new job and just life as it is now. The last few years have been an upheaval for many and I’m no different. Family deaths, work changes, life stress and…

Happy Hallowe’en
October has been another crazy month, in an already chaotic year. I’m just waiting for this year to be over to hopefully start the next one with a fresh outlook since there are some changes happening starting in November which I’m hoping are for the best.

Ugh
June was disappointing, well not the month itself but it encompassed a bunch of disappointing/irritating occurrences so yeah… The second half of 2023 kicks off tomorrow and I could use some more positive happenings for the next six months. I think the whole world could really. I’ve tuned my news feeds dramatically to avoid being…

Grrr
This photo is like a visualization of my feelings this month. Vascilating between Grrr and Meh in equal measure. Work stresses, exhaustion and just some ennui have meant that for this month and most of the previous twelve or so (not sure how many but assume a lot) I’ve been generally ranty or miserable company.…

Grr…Arg…
Today was a day that disappeared quickly but was irritating. Or maybe I was just exhausted and in a bad mood. I don’t think I was grumpy this morning but by the end of the day I was irritated by everything. I have a lot of plates spinning and sometimes it feels like no one…

Grump
Is there something about getting older that makes you more susceptible to irritation? I’ve always had limited patience with certain things, people with no common sense, bad drivers, etc., but looking back on the last few years I’ve noticed my patience is almost non-existent. Irritation with everything is more normal than patience over a few…
