So most of my posts I try to stick to one topic but it’s often times hard for me to stick to that. There’s been a lot going on around me lately, so here’s the update.
I’m allergic to most things outdoors so yard work has never been something I did because I knew it would make me sick. So a friend’s husband had been doing my yard since my ex moved out. Unfortunately she called and told me he had a stroke on Saturday. So my thoughts and prayers are obviously with him and her and I pray he makes a full recovery. He’s entirely too young for this.
On the selfish side of things, I’m back to trying to find someone to deal with my yard, which is a challenge. I live in an interior townhome and the only access to the backyard is through the house and most “companies” won’t do that with their equipment. I have a mower, blower and weed eater – just need to find someone to use them….LOL
It seems like illness is all around me lately. My current best friend broke his wrist, my high school best friend just announced she was diagnosed with Cancer in December, a client’s son was just diagnosed with Cancer, another client has been fighting cancer for a bit, my sister-in-law is struggling with some things and of course my ex still has his issues. The further I get into my “health” journey the more I realize it’s the right path, just very challenging, but decidedly better than the alternative.
I also fight with being on/off the dating apps. I enjoy meeting people and having someone to talk to, but I hate the lack of authenticity with most folks. So I deleted it again, but met a couple of folks that are fun to talk to. It would be nice if someone wanted to do more than text, but I guess it just is what it is. I keep repeating to myself – God’s time not mine….but I’ve never been super patient and I really don’t love being alone all the time.
My busy season is about 3 months away and I’m trying to talk myself into going away for a bit before that starts – but so far – it’s not working. Love to hear from anyone who’s out there reading.
