Things That Are on Your Mind

Well the inevitable finally happened. Just tested positive for covid.

Such fun!

I am so sorry! How are you feeling?

I heard someone in the changing room at my department store coughing their lungs out and thought
"That sounds like the Covid cough."

My grandmother just fell, possibly broke her hip. That means all 3 of my living grandparents have had medical emergencies this year.

Oh no Plinko! I shall pray for him! I am so sorry this year has been a lot of medical emergencies.

What is on my mind is how my emotions are all over the place. I mentioned regarding Christmas I am grinchy, but then at store seeing some stuff I like about Christmas made me feel more like Tiny Tim in my heart. Ugh.. society says you have to be in one state or another, but I find I can go in seconds back and forth between different feelings; I have feel great sorrow, joy, and pain. Anyways.. that is all.

There's a fire that happened nearby. Smoke in the air, and it's blocking out the Sun. All of this happening right when the Forum broke. Maybe it's connected, not sure.

Really reacting to a celebrity who is hijacking the faith…

I'm worried about taking my dog for a walk, the smoke in the air was irritating my eyes when I went to take her out potty.

And you are not biased. XD

But yeah this is why get that fake grass with the container below it for dogs.

 

[Saint Ravenboo]

Yeah. I decided not to take her for a walk. The air is too dangerous for me to be outside for long. So I'm not going to chance it with her.

I’ve made the decision with my partner to start looking into the process of getting them a partner visa for Australia so that we can live together here now that we have been together for a few years and have spent a decent amount of time together both in Australia and the USA (plus some in Japan).

The visa alone looks to cost over $9000 plus any associated fees for getting a lawyer to help with the process which is a little crazy but at the end of the day it’ll certainly be worth it to get the chance to start the next stage of our life together which is an exciting prospect!

My mom's mental ups and downs from the brain bleed are becoming more prevalent. I think I may have isolated a cause, but its hard. One day she is herself as I have known her most my life, the next a child that needs my help. and the next she is very manic in the sense of her hyperfixation: like if she feels itchy. My Father is really struggling post surgery, and there is concern about his new pain. I am not complaining, just expressing, venting that its hard seeing my parents who were so capable and do it yourself people need so much assistance. I am learning a lot: how to cook well, manage emotional tensions, and even some of juggling I have to do with my mom's memory has helped me learn a technique of how to compartmentalize things about my own values and those of others and what they believe is true. Good is coming from this, but stress too and I am managing that in ways I know best.

Thanks you all for letting me share here, it helps. It really does.
