Decaf Vanilla Comoro...

Decaf Vanilla Comoro with steamy frothed milk in my cute owl mug - something warm and comforting this evening.

I've been in my head a lot lately, for better or worse. I guess better because I'm working through some things. Maybe worse because I should probably be seeing a therapist and focusing on this house and my job search. I can't always control my brain, though.

In any case I'm feeling a bit better today. I went out to watch the dogs because it's "take your trashcan to the curb" day and they were barking at the neighbors. I apologized for their rudeness and played with them a bit to distract them. Then Shaun came out and asked if I'd be up for playing badminton with him (he bought a cheap setup recently and we hadn't used it yet). I guess I was into it because we played for a couple of hours. It was silly fun because we were playing with the dogs the whole time, too. I needed that. I needed to get out of my head for a while.

I told Shaun I wanted to find a helmet tomorrow so I can skate. One of the last times I skated I fell flat backwards like a starfish and hit my head. I was indoors that time but there are lots of places to skate outside here but they are concrete, so, you know - I'd rather not bust my melon. 😂 I'm really hoping that indulging in things I enjoy will help me feel better. Sounds super obvious when I spell it out like that, but usually when my mood is down I'm not interested or motivated.

Anyway. We'll see how the helmet search goes. I also need to find some good succulent dirt. I've been recommended one by someone I trust so now it's just a matter of whether I can find it locally or not. Guess I'm looking for a lot of things right now. Job, helmet, dirt. What a list. 😂

Well, I hope y'all are doing well. I'm better today than yesterday, so I can't complain. Have a good one, friends. ❤️
