December 24th: Christmas Eve Stress


Today is Christmas Eve (!!!!!!). Tomorrow is Christmas! Ah! Don't forget to put out your milk and cookies. I make my son write a thank you note with his milk and cookies. I try to keep him grounded and not greedy. I TRY.

I know the holidays can be extra stressful. You have to deal with family members, even ones you may not like or who may judge you. You have to deal with rotten kids. You have to spend more money than normal for presents that people may or may not like. You have to do this and do that. You feel exhausted or fatigued. You need a break. Unfortunately, Christmas hasn't even happened yet. There's more to handle! It's important to stay level-headed throughout the holidays.

Today's task: Go on a walk. It can be a walk around the neighborhood or around a park. Just go for a walk and enjoy yourself. Get lost in your thoughts or listen to your favorite artist with headphones on. Try to lower your stress level. Just take some time for you.

If you're local to Charleston WV, Magic Island or Joplin Park is a great place to walk around.

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.
