Holiday Season

The Holidays are among us and we all are busy with shopping , cleaning, wrapping and planning dinner. I know that each year around this time is one of the hardest times I have to go thru. I lost my mom just before Christmas and her birthday and it has been hard ever since. I know people tell me it will get easier and I don’t see how. The one person I could talk to about anything was my mom and now I don’t have that. I know that I have friends and other family members I can talk to but my mom was different. She loved me for me and it didn’t matter what was going on in our life. She always tries and makes Christmas the best for all of us. I still have the present that I got her that year. I know one year it will be easy for me to get thru the holidays but I am not sure when that will be.

It is never easy being down for the holidays, but I try and put on a brave face and get thru it. Sometimes the ones that are supposed to be there for you, don’t listen and make things harder to handle. I know that I will be fine and get thru the holiday season again, but just remember when you see someone don’t judge them you don’t know what they are going thru.

I want to wish everyone that has followed me and went on this year-long journey with me. I will continue next year where I know I will have challenges that will have to deal with. I know that I will get thru them with help from others and myself.

One day it would be nice to get a prayer answered once, but it will happen when you least expect it.

I made the decision to take some time off of social media. I would go on it more than I wanted to, just cause I was bored. I started to find other things to do instead which helps me. I also did it with TV too. I know that I have shows I enjoy watching but I want to start learning to do other things with my time.

I do go on messenger because that is how I communicate with a few people. It has only been 2 weeks and I feel better because there is nothing on social media that I need to read or see that bad. I know that it is going to be a while before I just put aside but I do follow people that help me with other things I am learn to do this year.

I have friends and family that have come off of social media sites. I know that life is short and I never post anything about my life and what I am doing. I only post shows that we are going to be at. Plus follow and learn about things I want to try and change in my life. So I know that I can back off it.

Plus, spring is coming soon and I am really looking forward to that because we are going to be busy with planting and changing our yard into what we want to do. Plus take care of that chickens and make things better for them also.

I also started reading again along with working on puzzle. Next will be hanging out with my friends. My health is very important so I am learning what I can to help that also. So much to learn. I have enjoyed this year so far.

Until next time.

HobbiesHobbies

What are some of your hobbies that you do everyday, every week or every year?

Hobbies are activities done regularly in ones leisure time for pleasure. Any activity you enjoy doing in your spare time. Some activities conducted in your spare time are for recreation or pleasure.

I know that I have a few hobbies I do regularly, like baking, reading , listening to either music or a podcast. I have others that I do like cooking, crafting, gardening, watching movies or shows. There are some hobbies I like to learn as wells like learning a new language, canning, or photography.

I know that everyone has their own reason for some of their hobbies. I know that each one that I do helps me in a different way. When I think about a new hobby I look into it and make sure it is something that I could do or have the time to learn. Just remember you have your reason for the hobbies you do and you never have to explain why to anyone.

Please if you have the time let me know what fun hobbies you do and maybe we could learn something new together.

HurtHurt

I would like to start with saying sorry that i have not kept up with this, but I have been not feeling well and need to take care of my self to do this.

Now onto what the word hurt means: When you live with someone that has depression the words you say can make a difference. Words can hurt more then you even know because you don’t know how the person feels.

I know that when someone in your life says something to you and you are down it make you feel like giving up. I know that when it happen to me that is how I felt. On top of that I didn’t feel well and it been a roller coaster ever since.

So the one thing I would let people know is watch what you say to the ones that have depression and make sure they are doing fine before you say something that you might hurt them and they give up on life.

I know that you need to have a support system and people you can go to and talk and let them help you. I know that I have that and i lean on them when I have a hard time. Plus find other thing that help you feel better about yourself.

I know for me I have to let things sit for the night and then the next day I have to remember what is important to me. I know that I couldn’t leave my dogs or my friends that have always been there and help when I need someone right there.

So sometime changes need to be made and I figure out what I have to do to make my self happy again. I work hard at that make health choices.

keep others in your minded before you say something out loud that can hurt others. It might change that person life.
