Questioning myself lately and asking am I ready to date? Thinking about relationships, love, and having someone by my side. Getting that lonely feeling. Just a little scared honestly of putting myself out there, letting my guard down. I also think that it is time to at least try to meet new people. I am a homebody and I need to get out of that. Want to live a little and be happy enjoying my life. My life consists of motherhood, working, writing all day every day. Do some different things. Just doing a little thinking well of course and it’s on my mind. Just don’t know when I would work up the courage to actually do it. Lol.
I am still a work in progress and still trying to learn to trust. Blah Blah Blah my life is boring…. Thinking out loud.
Currently working on books and still doing this blog. Writing is a passion and even if I am just writing my thoughts I love it just to get it out of my mind. Sometimes the notebook is my therapist.
Are you a writer? Any books on the way? What motivates you?
So today was an okay day. I have the weekend to myself, some good ol me time before my kids head back to school. My kids went out of town for the weekend to meet family and have a fun weekend. I had to check my nerves because I was so nervous about them going out of town without me. Anxious and nervous and of course praying. I am going to use this time wisely and pray they are having fun.
So besides that, I have been writing and editing and it was going great for hours then BOOM my mind went blank and I couldn’t think, focus, or write. Just was staring at my notebook for some minutes waiting for something to come to mind. It’s crazy how I was writing and flowing and then can’t focus, can you say annoyed? Guess it is time for a break or be done for the night. Had some writing goals for this weekend and was hoping to get farther than what I did in my book today. Whew let me take a breather do not want to force anything nothing good comes out of that. Maybe I will read a book or find a good movie to watch do not know yet kind of overthinking it and pissed I just got stuck like that after writing for hours today. Try harder tomorrow. Happy writing all
How was your day? What to do for writer’s block? Does that happen to you often? Do you have any writing goals and are they challenging? Yes, many questions tonight from Ms. Overthinker.
Well, that is my Saturday. Have a good one. Love, Peace, Happiness, and Blessings
This thing called parenting. Whew can be challenging work at times. I feel like from time to time it is a big challenge. Being a parent, you must always be alert and aware of anything and or anyone around your kids. You have to have those eyes and ears wide open. As a parent you are first a safeguard, a protector loving and caring. Second a provider yes kids are not cheap lol. You have to be a protector and be able to take care of and give your kids the necessities needed in life. Third, you are a teacher as they get older it is the parent’s job to teach their kids the rights and wrongs of the world. Teach them to be respectful, smart. It is the parent’s job to help their child with education needs. Keeping them learning new things, keep them engaged. Fourth the parent is a therapist hearing and seeing what our kids go through it is up to us the parents to steer them in the right direction. Give them loving and encouraging words of wisdom, letting them know you love them. Kids have to know that they can come to their parents with any problem and feel comfortable that the parent will be there and help. Fifth you are a chef and a housekeeper lol. Feeding them and supplying food and clothing and of course from time to time the toys and extra things that they need. Also supplying a way to pay for everything including education. Cleaning up after them until they can for themself and sometimes you still will be doing it as life goes on. Sixth you are somewhat of a punching bag; I don’t mean physical beating or anything violent. I mean that the parent takes on all problems and have no choice but to. Dealing with our kids’ attitudes and sometimes behavioral problems. It is up to us to help our children along the way and sometimes that means we the parents are the bad guys. Kids often feel we are too strict or needy but of course, we want nothing but the best for them. Especially those teenage years. Lol, demanding work I tell you. My son is in sixth grade and his thing is the class clown phase which is challenging because it gets him in trouble. Like I have said above parents are all six things plus more. Most important job, I think.
It can be hard from day to day. As a parent sometimes there is no downtime, time for us with working, cooking, cleaning, and making sure the kids are good we are tapped out. Even with the challenges, the troubled times it is something that I will not change. I feel like becoming a parent has changed me for the good. It is hard because they are of course my first concern, and I cannot easily make decisions like I use to. It puts you on high guard. Parenting keeps you on your toes and with your kids being upfront and honest with you it can be kind of chaotic, yeah sometimes they think they are grown lol. Still will not change it. Parenting is a job that is never-ending.
To all parents out there stay strong no matter what. Hold on to those precious moments and memories, try your hardest to always talk to your kids, and understand how they are feeling, what they are going through. Parents often want to shelter their kids keep them close by not sharing with them the ways of the world. I feel as kids grow it is important for parents to be honest with them, teach them well. This thing called parenting is sometimes easy and sometimes hard. Shout out again to the parents keep your head up and be strong during those challenging times. Our kids are sometimes all we have and vice versa.
My feelings tonight just staring at my kids thinking they are growing too fast lol. I love every minute of it. Thankful and grateful. How do you feel about Parenting? Do you like kids? Do you feel it is a challenge raising kids?
When you have to make choices that are good for you but will hurt someone, still choose you.
It doesn’t make sense to keep giving in to them or live how they want you to. Or give into a situation that is not good or safe. Give in to yourself, feed you and your soul
Love yourself better than you love anyone else. Be strong and make the right decisions
It is Your life, so the choice has to be made for you and your future
Give yourself all you got.
Make those hard choices and be a better you
The truth is honestly how can you love someone or something if first you don’t love yourself…
My thoughts and feelings tonight, self-love is very important. Please remember to be kind, caring, and loving to yourself. You matter!
Sometimes it is just easy to focus and worry and stress over things. Go into full anxiety mode. Sometimes it is easy to get distracted from the right you are doing. Get sucked into the bad and ugly and it happens fast. Sometimes we forget ourselves and what it is we are trying to do. Sometimes we get scared of life. Sometimes we let people come into our lives and take over. We let them dictate what we do how we move. Sometimes it happens when we are at our lowest and depressed. We do not care at the moment because sometimes we do not care about life at all. Sometimes it takes us a while to really understand what is going on in front of us and around us. Sometimes we make mistakes that cost us later in life. Sometimes we do not know where to turn, we do not know what to do. And. Sometimes we give up. Sometimes it is a struggle to get it all together. Sometimes we just need faith we need to know that everything will be okay. Sometimes we go through life numb because we feel we cannot fix anything. Sometimes we just need to breathe, be calm. Berceuse sometimes life happens and it’s not always going to be how you want it. At all. The process of life. Sometimes we just have to deal with it.
