New Friends

Hello beautiful people! So my Sunday posts have basically been extremely early Monday morning posts so far. :P Basically I'm changing this to Sunday/Monday posts from now on, hopefully there's a few night owls out there who will see this. Lol Recently I've been getting to know two new friends, Ashton and Aleya, and it's been really awesome making new friends and making connections with people again! It's been so long since I've met anyone new and started forming a relationship with them so it's been so nice being with these two. It's amazing getting to hear their stories of their lives and their struggles and how they've come out of it.

Honestly, meeting Ashton and hearing a bit of what he's gone through has really brought out my old school "mama" side. I don't know if I've ever shared this with all of you, but a few years ago my "role" in my group of friends was the mother figure who took care of everyone and made sure they were safe and well fed and loved and that's how I ended up receiving the nickname "mama" for a few years. Everyone kind of started going their own way and started growing up a bit so my mama role was less needed and I started taking care of myself more. It's good to take care of myself and all, but I kind of miss taking care of people. Not to say that Ashton needs taking care of, but he does need a good friend, I think, and it's nice building that relationship with him and with Aleya as well!

Bit of a short random post tonight, but what's new? I hope you're all well! Xx

Going Overboard

I realize it's not Sunday, but I did say I'd just be writing as I felt like it as well as Sundays. I just want to get some thoughts out honestly. The past two days have felt very odd entering back into the realm of the living, so to speak...this past week feels like an entire month of my life because of the people I was with and the things I was doing. I tend to go overboard with things sometimes, but I'm glad I caught myself and came back to reality. Time to (slowly) take steps to getting back on track. I say slowly because if I were to say "Crap! I need to do this, this, this, this...." and so on and so forth, I would get so incredibly overwhelmed and end up trying to escape again. By just doing, little things at a time and starting to take care of myself mentally and physically again, I think I'll start to feel better and head in the right direction.

That's all for now, I suppose. :) I hope you all have a fun and safe weekend! Xx
