Empty Fridge, Skinny Body
List your top 5 grocery store items. Trigger warning: this post discusses weight loss, calorie restriction, and body image. This post also contains some toilet talk, sorry in advance! Sparkling water is essential, to have some manner of enjoyment when you’re on a restrictive diet. It has no calories, that…

Ohio BBQ Kitten (with Suburban Park Swan)
I’m not sharing my own kitchen failures today, but the prompt reminds me of an epic and awful food I keep hearing about (people eating pet animals- trigger warning!?). I don’t know the supposed dog and cat recipe, so I imagine one would just baste the carcass with a sauce.…

Does My Smartwatch Want Me Dead?
A content warning for talking about counting calories and weight loss. I accepted a deal on upgrading to a newer model of smartwatch and wonder now if it was a bargain for death and injury. There was nothing really wrong with my old watch, but it was a few years…

Summer Solstice and 2024 Mid-Year Updates
I was so negative in my mindset the last time I posted on the blog. During the full Strawberry Moon and longest bright hot day of summer I decided to make some efforts toward keeping a more cheerful disposition and happy attitude going forward (if possible). My meditation habit is…

Taimane Gardener released a new single called “Matcha Latte”, singing with her ukulele about the rewarding enjoyment of her favorite drink from a local cafe. It’s a cute and happy tune, I listened a few times, and then watched the music video with my daughter. Of course this inspired me…

Loving February
My daughter is coming to stay with me soon. I see her often, but she doesn’t consider my apartment her home lately (she is 24 years old) so I’m happy and excited she’ll be staying in her room here again for a while. We get along great, but in so…

What I Did Instead of Bloguary
I only heard of Bloguary halfway through the month and never did write an entry to participate. Sorry to anyone who is disappointed by that, I have so many painful regrets myself! Maybe next year I’ll get it together. Maybe I’ll try to use the prompts throughout the year and…

Predictions for the New Year
I really tried to imagine a more fun or lighthearted future, but whatever psychic spirit guides me brought only negative premonitions this week, sorry. I hope I’m wrong about it all, I don’t want so many of these things to happen! But here is what came to mind when I…
