Lazy Sunday

I had my SO wake me up early this morning so I could FINALLY satisfy my craving for pancakes. I made buttermilk ones. Really simple recipe. 2 cups self-rising flour, 2 1/4 cups buttermilk, splash of vanilla extract, 4 Tablespoons melted butter, dash of salt, 2 eggs, and 3 Tablespoons of sugar. Don’t overmix becauseContinue reading “Lazy Sunday”

Broken Down

I woke up this morning feeling horrible. I remembered one flaw to Intermittent Fasting. Low blood sugars. I had to break my fast and, guys, it broke me. I ate a peach and cried my eyes out. I haven’t been able to eat what I want due to conflicts in the kitchen. So I’ve beenContinue reading “Broken Down”

Some Bad Days

Trigger Warning: Brief mention of purging further into post. “Happiness is sand in your toes and a shell in your pocket.” I don’t have much happiness in my heart right now. Despite the DBT, I’m just feeling lower than I have in quite some time. I don’t have good ideas in my head and IContinue reading “Some Bad Days”

Home Sweet Home

So I briefly have mentioned my dream to have a Clayton Home. Specifically this one, the Winchester Flex 32 Wide. I daydream about decorating my home and what it will be like to live in it. We currently live with my SO’s parents and SO’s child (my Bonus daughter). It’s a combination of things. I’veContinue reading “Home Sweet Home”

Self Image

Today’s opposite action was going to get my meds and then… not being able to get my meds. Well, I got my Diabetic Test Strips, but my Psych meds weren’t available. So I had to ask my Psychiatrist for samples. I’m not sure if it’s normal, but my Psychiatrist is a very strange guy. TheContinue reading “Self Image”

Hump Day

Halfway through the week! Or for my SO, today was his Friday. It was a busy day. My MIL canned some cubed roast. I try to stay out of her way, but I like to learn a bit about the canning process as well. It’s amazing. She has the butcher cube the shoulder roast (beef)Continue reading “Hump Day”

Mental Overload

Yesterday I meant to do another post, but the day just did not go the way I planned it. I had my first session with my new therapist in the morning. The health care provider that I currently use has interns who start in July and their time at the facility ends in June. SoContinue reading “Mental Overload”

Tea for Two

Not the 1950 Musical Film starring Doris Day, which I have now decided is a necessary movie that will be gracing my television sometime today. I don’t know why, but there’s something magical about watching some of the older films. I recently got on the kick after watching “Charade” (1963) with Audrey Hepburn and CaryContinue reading “Tea for Two”

Quick Kimchi

Kimchi is something that my family loves to eat. I’m a huge fan of it myself, but I also have to moderate how much I consume due to the heat. (Acid reflux sucks, guys.) I can’t say that my version is a hundred percent “authentic” since I’m not Korean and the recipe I pulled fromContinue reading “Quick Kimchi”
