Summer

The last 2 summers have been different. last summer I got sick to the point of my landing in the hospital. This one is different because I saw a movie and went to the state Fair

presents

So last christmas, I'd gotten all my friends a bunch of presents. I got my aunt some stuff as well. It was fun. I was like oh i have some disposable income. I'm buying presents for everyone

shopping spree

I went on a shopping spree when i went to getting christmas shopping. Id actually started right after halloween, which seems odd. I'd had a huge bag of stuff for my presents. the bishop of the youth parish i go to said 1 of the gifts was a "nice courting gift" whatever that means. the chocolate for my guy friends was my mom's doing. She wanted to thank my friends for what all they did, which included helping my "recovery" from pneumonia. I wasn't sure what i was going to be doing with all the stuff but what i knew was I am going to spoil my friends with the stuff I'd gotten them. Wasn't the first time I spoiled my friends.

Lori Daybell trial

She's sentanced in the trial and I think she deserves it

Careful arm

after I got of the ICU last summer i returned to the YSA and a friend tried to hug me and I'm careful arm. Luckily She was like okay. That same friend tried to feed me

Chili

I'm soaking beans for Chili. Ive got a ton of spices and vegan meat in the freezer so it'll be a stretch meal.

Where's the bill?

So on cinco de mayo my aunt Jacquie and I met up with my friend. What's funny is that my friend said he'd pay for the whole tab. I was like "Hey where's my aunt's bill?" my aunt came back from the bathroom asking the same thing. The friend paid the bill. I'm like good grief

Love your toes

I've gotten a comment on my toes today. Someone noticed my toes. I'm like thanks. That's kinda cool that someone noticed about the thing on my toes.

Check in on me

one of my friends asked me how I liked the movie but i hadn't gone yet and its not the first time he's "checked on me".

Makeup

The last time I went to church i put on make up. its awesome and I got attention

Skin care

I've been doing my skin care since I had some mild sunburn. I'm also trying to get some satisfaction from this

Sunburn

I was sunburned yesterday. While I was hydrated i am still managed to burn my skin. I'm getting better. the coffee scrub does well with my skin issues

pumpkin spice season

I can't wait for the pumpkin spice season. I love that kinda stuff. I love it in cereal, coffee and snacks. While I like this kinda stuff it's also super sugary. while i was in the ICU everyone was worrying about the sugary stuff.

the 5k

I signed up for a 5k. It would be a good idea sicne i'm out of the ICU for a year and it's my 1 year mark to celebrate this. my family and i need this. i'm doing something hard like being sick in the ICU.

meal planning

I've been trying to eat out of my fridge, freezer and pantry. why? my atrrocious spending spending habits. I like eating out. Especially since i'm a single female. I'm trying to cut down since i've gotten out of control of my spending. my mom's never taught me but then again no one taught me this.

Adulting

something people are supposed to be doing but are being reminded do this or that. Apparently a couple people who can't do it despite being adults

Nail polish

I had painted my nails a couple times. once it was for my brother's wedding

Snacks

I got a ton of snacks for the week. I love that kinda thing. Plus I am a vegetarian kind of and I eat a lot of stuff. Even if it isn't that healthy i try getting as much healthy food as I can

I have a problem

Creepy susie and fire. me and pumpkin spice stuff. Its hilarious to me but I relate to her

Cleaning

I just cleaned my bathroom with some soap I'd gotten for Christmas last year. I actually walked out and I said it smells amazing. As weird as it is to say that I really like smelling nice and I think I like it clean. Its weird to say that I love the smell of clean but I do. i love the smell of clean which am amazed that it smells good

Coffee body scrub

i used some coffee to clean myself since sometimes it's a good at exfoliating. especially for dandruff. It also is a good smell for it since the coffee scrub has a coffee smell which I like

Coffee dandruff shampoo

so for the last few days I have been putting coffee grounds in my hair for my dandruff. While my hair is getting better I think it's also drying out my hair. on the upside my hair is growing out faster. my hair is longer than my family but also since I've got dandruff it's annoying and I shaved off some level of my dandruff

Poutine

I went out and got poutine. I love it. I've wanted to have it while I was in Florida

Rainy days

Its been raining here a long time. While I was waiting for it to stop I've been able to clean up my apartment and have enough food to eat through my food in the freezer and fridge

Happy birthday

On my birthday I woke up with a couple of happy birthday texts. 1 of them was from the president of the YSA

Vegetarian diet

So far I have been having more vegetarian food. My family is supportive me eating vegetarian food and my brother even eats vegetarian food once in a while

Book

I've been working on a book. Its awesome since I was busy with other stuff and I figured out that I should have been writing more than usual

We'll walk with you

One of the girls I possibly would've been roommates with said that they would walk with me. I was like ugh. its not because of my unfriendliness just wanting independence and freedom

Stock up

When I was out and about I realized that there was going to have bad weather so I had decided to stock up on whatever I can. While I am able to cut down how much I had while I was able to feed off the food stock i have

Dirty

My apartment is usually nice. While I'm not as nasty as my dad I like cleaning up as much as I can when I can

Rain

Its supposed to rain in my area for a while. Luckily I stocked up a little bit. A little bit of time I can clean up my apartment and decorate it a little more since I don't like to run around when its raining

Treat

So when i is living "semi-independently" back in February I was in the Starbucks and I got a cookie from a stranger. this person also said that he would treat me to something. I'm like no thanks. It was still sweet

Laundry

I've been doing laundry at a laundromat. As annoying as it is I don't mind. Plus I get out of the apartment

Wine and dined

On my birthday I was wined and dined by my friend and dad. My dad asked me if he could take me out for lunch but he got bumped to dinner that day. My mom and brothers got bumped to the day after

Cleaning up the house

Once I have the party I'll need to get my apartment as clean as I can. I usually clean the house anyway and I will get it cleaner than i usually do

Gathering

I'm starting to gather up stuff for a girls night house warming party combo.

Work out

I need to start working out. I signed up for a 5k in the fall so I can get healthier plus I can get over the anniversary of getting out of the ICU last summer so getting ready for that is something I need to do that

Dislike

There's a reason I don't like drinking alcohol much since I get drunk quickly. While 5% alcohol isn't that much with alcohol i dislike drinking too much since I get drunk easily. I sometimes had some food but still got alcohol in my system but drunkenly rode the bus

Hard cider

I have a liking for hard cider. It was something I got onto when I moved out as I wanted to get some independence. At my brother's graduation from college I got 2 hard cider and I slept some of it off

Going out and having fun

My mom doesn't want me to become a hermit. I won't since my friends and I are going to church or activities for the church

Cold

Aren't you cold? is something I got a lot since I don't get as cold as fast as others

Graduation

My brother graduated from college yesterday. It was fun. I was so cranky last night when i got home. I had a Philly cheese steak quesadilla and 2 hard ciders yesterday. I was happy since I got that much alcohol yesterday. I don't drink a lot anyways

Cleaning

While I'm on my own I'm like constantly trying to "put out fires". I usually try and clean up the best i can when i can, which is usually once or twice a week on average

Tea

While I'm not the biggest fan of tea i do drink it on occasion. my favorite type of tea is decaf chai

Egg salad

I love egg salad. I've made some ate the stuff. Its a good way to use up the food ive gotten in my apartment

Fun

I apparently had more fun than my family while I was at the Disney park. Since I was of age I could've gotten alcohol to drink. It's awesome since I was bored kinda

Double and freeze

I made a couple of vegetarian Mexican lasagna and then froze both. I wound up making more of them and then I had a ton of good food for myself. Plus I had no time to feed my freezer

Self defense class

I took a self defense class last night. My friend taught the class. I was told that I had a good time, which I did as well as it was a good idea to learn about self defense since i was very sick last summer and I was going to be safe so learning that helps

shocking

Since i've left my old parish i'm sure they'll be shocked when they get to see me again. I love them but they're trying to hang onto me since i was initally being told to leave them. I won't be with them until the 4th of July.

pedicure

I got a new pedicure this week. It's awesome since I hadn't had them since i'd not have them since i had them done in December but i'm not 100% sure.

new clothes

I got some new clothes this week. I went there to see what they had. I got 6 items for about 100 dollars. That's kinda scary how much i can get for how little.

feeding my freezer

I'm finally starting to feed my freezer. I'm going thru some of my food and then freezing it when i can. While it's annoying it'll hopefully save me money. I'm kinda spending a ton of money and i'm going to try and cut that down

running around DC

i've started running around DC again. It's fun. the last time i was there i saw some amish

Mall

There's a mall near where I moved to. Its kinda sad since I was a frequent visitor there. Also, since it's a thing that's going to be torn down since it was closed down and was a dying

Sandal tan

I received some sandals and now I have a sandal tan that looks like tacos. Its hilarious to me since I love the sandals and apparently they're hand me downs

Waist length hair

While I've mentioned growing my hair out I've wanted to have waist length hair. I've always wanted super long hair and even ehenn I was younger I was even allowed to grow my hair out as long as I wanted. Now that I'm an adult and living alone I'm going to be growing my hair out as long as I want, which I hopefully waist length hair

Coughing up a lung

My allergies have been driving me crazy. Ive had to use my rescue inhaler for that but I'm getting better

Sales

I usually shop the sales at grocery stores and I like the stuff so much that I make a YouTube video for my channel

Peeing a lot

I'm peeing a lot because I drunk half a gallon of water. On the upside my lungs are feeling better

Tan

apparently with all the walking around I'm doing is giving me a nice tan. Everyone comments on the tan or sunburn i have

Funny

So my mom gave me a toaster oven and kept saying "I can toast this" but then remembered "Oops I gave Jackie the toaster oven". I kinda forgot that too once. Another thing was that mom said she's giving me tools but then takes them back." My mom didn't realize that she did that until I told her that

Lazy day

Today is a lazy Sunday. I'm taking today off since I'm tired. While I could have friends over I've got a sore throat. My friends could come over with pizza if they want but I'm mainly chilling out

Motorcycle

I've wanted a motorcycle since I was a teenager but never thought I could ever own 1 because of a previous health issue. Luckily I have gotten over said issue and can technically drive. If I ever get that thing I'm never letting my brother touch my motorcycle like ever

Forensic files

These have a weirdly calming effect on me. I love forensic files and scary stuff. While i was in the ICU i didn't even have any intrest in this weirdly likely because i had 6 people come and see me.

abnormal

I've not gone out the last couple of days. It's a little abnormal but then again, given the weather and my body being tired it's like, whatever

Toms

I tried wearing a pair of them but they got super wet

Ice water

I got a new way to get a bunch of water colder. While I like it, I also use it as a way to clean out my system

Thin hair

My hair is long enough to wear it in a thin bun. While I wear my hair up in a bun it's nice. I can't wait to have my hair in a pair of pigtails

Budgeting

I'm trying to get my spending under control. I'm using the things I used to help with that. I took a few things to get my stuff under control when I was using more things that I have things that are

Amazon package

My little brother usually gets packages so we have known he's still alive since he gets stuff at the house

Scary videos

I'm watching scary videos again. i love them since I was a forensic science major

Necklaces

i got a couple of necklaces yesterday. They're catholic necklaces despite me not being Catholic

Laundromat

I've been using a laundromat the last few weeks. It's nice but annoying

Easter services

Last week I went to Easter services at my church. I loved it and I have some fun. I got to see some friends and I got to see my dad. I loved seeing my dad as He's kinda checked out since the divorce

Nasty house cleaning

I cleaned my house up last week. It's awesome since I have a place to clean on my own. While it's annoying I love that. The free and clear stuff are my preferred cleaning products since I'm allergic to scented stuff

Natural cleaner

When I can I clean my house with natural cleaner. I can't stand the smell of bad cleaners that have a stick due to my lung problem

Cleaning my glasses

I've got to clean my glasses a lot. Its super annoying since I've got to clean my glasses all the time and every day. My glasses are my way I can clean. Its super annoying but whatever. It's okay

Dandruff

I have serious dandruff which is annoying but it's something kinda not the major

Demanding

I find that my brother demanding that I brush my teeth and do my mouthwash before my friends come to visit me in the ICU last summer it was kinda hilarious as he's my younger brother and I'm in the ICU so I'm like wow. That's nice of him to do that for me

Candles

I've got a lot of these things. I like them since I have things that are smelling good

Playing with babies

I love playing with little babies. I love them and they love me as well. I'm happy to play with them especially since they are cute.

Books

1 Saturday afternoon, I went to a bookstore and I got a couple of books. 1 of them is a book for research on a book I'm going to write at some point. I'm half way through writing my book but I'm kinda busy since I'm distracted by stuff thats working on my life (meaning I'm going through some stuff). Another is a book on another serial killer

Drinking water

Im still dehydrated. Since I'm a flexitarian and mostly eating something plant based food I need more water than my family. I need to drink more water and then get more fluids in my system. I usually drink a half gallon of water since I had 1 as a gift after a stay in the ICU last summer. It helps

eat off stockpile

I've been trying to eat off a stockpile. I'm usually buying things in bulk or when i'm with getting my medication. The good thing is i know when to get things when I need to. I'm getting things and will hopefully use it. I have a good thing to know what to do is low and when i need more of things. While i'm trying to live off of what i have it's not easy and i'm still having things that are impulse buys. I love things that are in bulk. my mom and aunt think that's awesome to live with this. It also depends on what is in your stockpile, your budget, health needs, space and more

recurring dream

in the dream I'm in the Gaylord hotel and convention center with a couple of my male friends, i'm a girl FYI. in the dream we're doing stuff like me sleeping on the pull out couch, which i like and them watching star wars while i go and swim and do things for my scoliosis. why am i dreaming about these things since i like the gaylord hotel and sleeping on a pull out sofa, and swimming but hate star wars, am not that close with 1 of my friends and am missing another 1 of my friends.

walking around

I walk around a lot. While i don't have a car it's easy for me to walk around with. It's annoying i like it. I like walking around.

Marching orders

It might seem weird but I have had a few "marching orders". Once I'd gotten them to "minister to the kentlands ward as i see fit". Otherwise I will have the "marching orders to do things like "take care of yourself", listen to your parents, be safe. the general

Cold Brew coffee

I've got a cold bree coffee since I'm so stressed out. Here's the thing, normally I can't get coffee every time i get stressed out as I'll run out of money and a lot of stuff stresses me out. I love cold brew coffee normally and on occasion I'll drink it. I actually drunk it the day my mom met my friend Andre.

nice socks

Since i was rushing on Sunday morning, I just wore my high heels and I'd worn a pair of Minnie Mouse socks. I liked my socks snce i'd needed new ones. I'd gotten my new socks on and got comments on them. I'm like, "thanks."

having fun

I'd had fun in Baltimore. At first i was like, "this isn't what I wanna do, my leg hurts, i'm not packed fully." My mom kept begging me. I'm like ok mom. I'd had fun. I went to get some insomnia cookies, which are good.

out and about on a rainy day

I've gotta run some errands while it'll be rainy. It's not fun but i've gotta do what I've gotta do what I have done. It's not easy to do that but it's gotta fun. I can do things indoors as well as things that ARE next door to things that are under the awning.

sunglasses and hat

I usually am into wearing over the eyeglasses styled sunglasses. More often than not I wear my sunglasses than my hat but I like the hats i have. My favorite hat is a hat with a Markoff's embolem on it. My mom liked it too. Usually if i have my hat i need it via hair to be dry.

baltimore

I just got back from Baltimore. My mom begged me to come. I wasn't too keen on going. I'm like "ugh ok, mom." While I'd been anxious of going I'd made the best of it. My mom was happy to have me. I'm like trying to have fun, which i did kinda. I'd had some time to think yesterday while I'd been walking back to the airbnb.

to do list

I've been making to-do lists. While it's not fun to have it's something i need to have this to lessen my anxiety. I've got bad anxiety and I'm like i need this to learn how to manage.

Long hair

I'm still trying to grow my hair out like crazy. I'm not used to shorter hair. I'm getting happy my hair is growing out

Cooking

I'm getting better and better at cooking. My mom was wondering what I make. Usually I make vegetarian food that's kinda filling. They're good to have plus I have them and then I'll eat off the stuff I make and get from places like Walmart

My hair dye

I went thru a phase where I'd dye my hair repeatedly. I'm now older and don't do that as much. While my hair is my pride and joy I'm lazy when it comes to dyeing my hair as much as i can. I did it once and my hair became like a cartoon colored person't hair. Once i'd dyed my hair too much and oh boy it took a ton of stuff to take it out.

Long hair

I've been growing my hair out. I love my hair long and so do boys apparently. To an extent my hair is usually long. I hate getting my hair cut. when I was a little girl i threw a fit and was allowed to grow my hair out longer than usual. now that my hair is longer for the most part it's kinda hard to keep in check but i usually like it longer since my hair is my pride and joy as well as something i do seriously take pride in. Plus I can do all kinds of things with it so I wanna keep my hair as long as i can.

Vegan food

I've been eating vegan food for the last few days. I love that kinda thing. breakfast sandwich is something I like to make. Especially bacon

Exploring

I'll be exploring an area near my new apartment via the buses. It's awesome since I am kinda familiar with the area but I'm a little rusty in that area. That's part of the reason I am going to be in a hotel before I go to the apartment
