Today’s My Friday!

I can’t really say I feel overloaded with work, even though I’ve gotten a lot done for work. However, I do not seem overwhelmed at this new job and with my new position. Everything is super laid back for me right now, and I couldn’t be more thankful about that. I know once I’m not remote, and go back to the center, I will be jammed with work and it’ll feel non-stop or never-ending, so, that’s why I’m glad this taking this time slowly, and enjoying not being needed with such great demand.

With all that being said, I’m glad today is technically my Friday, and I couldn’t be more excited to eat a lot of great food tomorrow. I also am excited for some Black Friday shopping as well. I should probably check on what time the stores open and what not, lol I have not yet done that. Add to the to-do list, Tee!

Speaking of things to do, I have two different blog posts in the draft folders for y’all. A book review on “It Starts With Us” by Colleen Hoover, and a short story, written by myself. First of all, let’s just chat about Colleen Hoover. She is an amazing author. Her books are outstandingly great to read, and suck you in just right. I cried for all three of the books I’ve read of hers, and I promise you, I know a lot of people that have done the same. Honestly, both my friends that read her books let me know before I read each, that I was most likely going to cry while reading. I’ll save the rest of my thoughts for the review but just know the three I’ve read so far are 10/10! Definitely recommend. On the other hand, my short story, is coming along pretty good. I call it a Holiday Mystery for now because I don’t want to share the title just yet. But, the genre is something I’ve never really explored writing before, so I’m taking my time with it. It will be short, but I want enough detail to make sure it does end well, and the conflict get’s resolved in some sort of way that ending it, will make sense to my readers.

To Be Thankful For

Not to switch topics so harshly but moving on, I want to discuss what I’m really thankful, hence the holiday tomorrow.

  1. Y’all know how much I talk about my amazing boyfriend but it’s because I cannot get enough of him, and talking about him to others, because, y’all…I am beyond lucky to have someone so caring, understanding, and mindful on my side, by my side, and my other half. You know? It’s so great to just not have to worry about anything going wrong, and if they do, we resolve it…QUICK! We do not let things go unresolved, ever! And at first, that terrified me because I was so used to that being the normal. Unresolved. No closure. No answers. That was my norm, and now it’s not. That in itself, has done wonders for our relationship, and I’m not saying everyone’s has to be like or that’s what a “real” relationship should be like, but that’s how OUR relationship is, and I love that about us. I have way too much anxiety to let things sit over night, it’ll drive me crazy and he knows that. So, we don’t let it happen. Is it hard, yeah sure, but I rather it be hard in that moment then on and on for weeks. You get me? Okay, let’s move on. The best thing about this man is that he really, really loves discussing our future together, and I love that so much. My anxiety about the future has lessened a ton thanks to him, because we frequently talk about it, and what it’ll be like, and what we want. See the key word here? We. It’s great to discuss thing as we, because it reassures me that, we, are going to be in this together. Now, God has his plans for us both, whether that is for us to be together in the end, I have no clue, but I will say this, if God gave me Landon, as a stepping stone in my life, to push me in His direction, then thank you God, I’d do this over and over again if that means Landon is in my life again, even if it were for only a period of time. I’d do it all again. Why? Because not only do I love, I am in love with him, and care for him so deeply, that I’d want to experience this again. Not only that, I have grown soooo much thanks to him building me up, showing me the love I deserve, and protecting me. Basically, I love him til the end of time, and that’ll always be the truth.
  2. I am very thankful for my family and friends. They all know how much they mean to me, and they know who I’m talking about so I don’t need to go into too much detail, but I will say, I’m the most thankful that God has really turned my dad and I’s relationship around for the good. Not to get too personal, because I’m not really ready to share all of that on here just yet. And I don’t want to jinx myself, but the last three encounters with my dad has been the best in a very long time. And the people that know this, know this already, but I am very thankful that it has been the best because before it wasn’t and that destroyed me. So I’m thankful that things are taking a turn for the good, finally.
  3. I am thankful for myself. I say that because I’ve come such, such a long way that I could cry at how much I’ve accomplished this far into my life. 25 years. I’ve lived that long and somehow managed to get this far in life. I have a great job, great boyfriend, a place to stay, a nice car, family and friends, this blog, and a lot more. I’m doing really great for myself and I couldn’t be more proud of myself about this. My birthday is next month, the 27th to be exact and I’m so excited for the year 26, and all I’ll accomplish then! STAY TUNED! It might just be a great one, I can feel it!

Thank you ALL, for reading! Enjoy your Thanksgiving, whether it’s with family, friends, coworkers, anything, anyone, or if it’s just gonna be you, enjoy it. I pray that everyone have the best day, and enjoy this time off, this break! I will see y’all on Friday! I am taking tomorrow off! Love you! Bye!
