To add a little more flavor to my life in a constructive way, I’ve decided to look up some simple DIY (do it yourself) projects that can be done on a low to nothing budget and in the confines of my 2 ft by 2 ft downtown apartment. The internet is such a wonderful place. I’ve made a list of some crafty type things I’d like to start doing once I get into the grove of my crazy work schedule. I don’t want to give away any of my ideas just yet, until I at least have an opportunity to try some of them. But, I would like to encourage everyone to find a new “hobby” whether it be big or small, I think it helps with the natural stresses of life. With that being said, I will share with you a website I have recently become obsessed with. I’ve always loved Tori Spelling more than the normal human being. I think her way of relating to a “ordinary” life is inspiring seeing as how her life has always been anything BUT typical. She’s also just incredibly fabulous when it comes to design, crafting, and fashion so why wouldn’t I have a small girl crush on her?
Along with this added edition to my daily routine, I’ve found myself truly focusing on my potential book. I know my story is an interesting one, and although I find I can write about nearly anything this has proven to give me more writers block than any other subject before. I’ve contemplated telling my story to someone else to have them take the bull by the horns and jot it all down. But in all reality, I know I’d feel like a failure if I did that, so what’s my only option? I suppose I’ll continue to create sixty more outlines of how to detangle this complex lifetime and make it into something some would enjoy reading. So wish me luck with that adventure, hopefully before another decade passes I will at least be content with page number uno.
Life as I know it…
Living in Columbus has brought about many NEEDED changes in my life as I have said before. Being away from the 15 regularly attended bars in Dayton and the friends that enjoy me as a drunken fool, has a sad ring to it in many ways, but has proven to be what was required. I’m in no way perfect, and know that I’ve made and continue to make too many mistakes for one to count, but I know now that alcohol doesn’t cover up those mistakes and in some instances only makes them worse. This in no way means I’ve become a no fun sober sally. I obviously still love myself some brews, many brews at that. But have cut down on using alcohol as a therapy tool for every time I’m upset about something, and it truly feels wonderful. Separating myself from what I’ve always known has allowed me to truly grow as MYSELF. I will say though that I've never missed my best friends and family more than I do on a daily basis now but have only grown to appriciate each and everyone of them more due to the distance. With all of the rambling nonsense that honestly, I don’t even care about, I will end with this. My best friend Stacia is coming to visit tonight, therefore I’m ready to boogie down to whatever the music in our brains is playing with an alcoholic beverage in hand. HECK YEAH YA’LL.
