Life Update 10/9/17

Hello readers or passersby.

If you're new to my blog, my name is Dori McDonough. I go by Dori Roberts on the internet a lot because I am married but haven't changed my last name legally. I'm a mother. I'm a wife. I'm a graduate student. I'm a lot of things. I can label myself as several titles, but I'm more than that. One of my passions is writing. One day, I hope to write a few books. One day, I also hope to be a more effective activist for domestic violence victims. One day, I hope to do a lot of things.

I've blogged on several platforms: Tumblr, Wordpress, and others. I found my home here at Blogger. I'm not consistent. I know that's true. But I want to be more consistent. I really do. I think it would be healthy for me. So, please stay with me. Subscribe if you wish. This platform is for me. For you. For us all. Hopefully, there will be some sort of normalcy and consistency soon.

Until then.

May 2018 Television Cancellations and Renewals

So I decided to take a break from blogging about cancellations and renewals, especially since the summer doesn't have a lot of those. So I'm lumping together May, June, and July into one blog post. As far as Summer television, the only thing I've really been watching that's "new" is The Proposal and Cloak & Dagger. Both are okay. I'm not obsessed with them. Anyways, I'm dying for the Fall premieres to happen. I miss my stories. Renewals Tangled: The Series (Disney) - Season 3 The Rain (Netflix) - Season 2 The Expanse (Previously Syfy, now Amazon) - Season 4 Baskets (FX) - Season 4 The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel (Amazon) - Season 3 Empire (Fox) - Season 5 The Good Fight (CBS) - Season 3 The Handmaid's Tale (Hulu) - Season 3 Westworld (HBO) - Season 3 Siren (Freeform) - Season 2 Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D (ABC) - Season 6 Lost in Space (Netflix) - Season 2 Gotham (FOX) - Season 5* Lethal Weapon (FOX) - Season 3 The Blacklist

2018

I stopped blogging. I stopped blogging.  I stopped blogging.  I wanted to. I just couldn’t bring myself to. I couldn’t find the words to say. I couldn’t find the time. That killed me inside. I love writing. I love expressing myself in this way. Even the television shows I used to love and blog about weren’t what I wanted to express.  I was busy in the last half of 2018. I had to find myself again. I took the longest break from blogging that I have probably ever done. But that’s okay. It’s okay to focus on yourself. To stop doing things that require time and energy to be the person you want to be.  2018 brought a lot of new and ended a lot of old. When I started the year 2018, I was a different person. I was depressed. I was sick. I was in a marriage where we both were not happy. I was spending my time between WVSU, doctor’s offices, and home. It was a constant struggle. I was losing weight. I wanted to die. I didn’t want to go on and live through the rest of the year. I felt

December 7-14: Let's Play Catchup.

I have a lot of crazy stuff happen this last week and it has completely drained me. I didn't touch my computer for a whole five days and then it took two days to sit down and decide how to write all of this out. That was an incredibly long sentence. This is going to be a very long blog post.
