I have had a LOT happening. Some good, some not so good, some just life progressing as it does. My job, officially my longest job that wasn’t self-employment, had me all sorts of panicking for the longest. I was forced to tier up to the next level, because they didn’t want to keep low level employees. I understood, but also let them know I didn’t want to and only did to ensure job security. Then,…

How are you feeling right now? I recognized earlier this week that I feel depressed. Knowing is one thing but I also recognize that I feel like I can’t share it. Work is stressful and I feel like my position is insecure because of my stats. I have alerts that I have to read to every caller when they are present, and my delivery rate is below 55% (requirement). I brought it up to 53%, but it…

It can be incredibly relieving to vent all your issues out. It puts them beyond the confines of your head and allows you to see them better. When you write it out, well, as you grow you learn not to put everything on social media. Plus, it doesn’t actually fix anything, and depending on a variety of things it can make things worse. I have said too much so many times in my life. Where my mouth…

What do you do as an adult when everything is too much? Reading is usually my answer. What sucks, is when there’s no time for reading. Can’t keep the oldest happy, because everything I do and say is the beginning of World’s End, and silence is not appropriate either. Classwork that I should be working on daily, but how the crap did a whole week pass by AGAIN? Class is late, so as soon as it ends…

I love sharing my book reviews. They’re not always the best written, and they may be short enough to only indicate if I liked them or not, but I firmly believe that more book reviews help authors find more exposure. Hopefully, I’m not just delusional lol.The Power of Now: A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment by Eckhart Tolle. Three stars, finished April 1, 2024.I didn’t have more than a star review…

A spider stole my glasses earlier today.I was waiting in the car rider line at my kid’s school, and this gigantic spider made their presence known on my right shoulder. I flipped the fuck out. Smacked it off of my shoulder and started brushing off my body and the car areas near me. My glasses went up on my head and I eventually calmed down. I put my glasses back down but couldn’t see. Took them…

I think I am acclimating to the faster pace life is going. At least, things seem to be a bit easier, except when I procrastinate.Defiance of the Fall 12 by TheFirstDefier/J.F. Brink, twelfth in the DotF series. Five stars, finished March 4, 2024.Leisurely but also workaholic.Zac is expectedly set on bulldozing forward on his path, and dragging friends along for the ride. I really like Catheya,…

The year seems to already speeding up, and I am mentally whiplashed lol.The Legend of Randidly Ghosthound 5 by Noret Flood, fifth in the LoRG series. Two stars, finished February 3, 2024.A drag.Before this book, I enjoyed the series. Randidly was fun to follow, relatable in his people skills (worse than none), and the adventures were emotionally intense. I hated following randoms, even if they…

GoodReads is beginning to make me crazy. I keep finding reviews from previous months listed, and finding others that haven’t synced. I tried Story Graph, and I like it, but it doesn’t sync with anything and that means I have to remember to post myself. I tend to move on to the next book lol and I forgot to post reviews except that Amazon prompts me to review it whenever I finished a book. Still,…

I never really understood it, at least until I grew up some, but I always hated when people would ask what I was grateful for. Being the angry little trauma burn that I was, I felt insulted that I should be grateful for things in my life, as if I was only allowed those things conditionally. There is a lot more to unpack there, but not the point of this post. I am learning to be grateful. I am…

Almost all my life I have spurned physical activity, and added some nasty words and sneers if I was really frustrated about it. The fact that my first PE teacher in my first school ran circles around me while loudly proclaiming how she could run circles around us while towards the end of her pregnancy only exacerbated my disdain and disgust. Walking was fine, and I enjoyed walking with friends. I…

I know, this is a miracle. I finally caught up! LolThe Jade Scripture by David North, first in the River of Fate series. Five stars, finished December 4, 2023.The blurb didn’t appeal to me, but I picked this up because I love the author’s other work. The beginning was both bizarre and captivating. The way Verse is connected to his previous lives was astonishing and, to me, original. I’m not a fan…

Just keep swimming!Defiance of the Fall 11 by J.F. Brink/TheFirstDefier, eleventh in the DotF series. Five stars, finished November 4, 2023.RumorsIt’s hilarious how bad Zac’s reputation is because of misunderstandings and some of his citizens. I like how Zac doesn’t have to solve every little problem on Earth, and it’s cool seeing people get stronger from either inspiration or jealousy. The…

I’m determined to get these book reviews posted lol. One book on here is in an extremely kink specific series: Mastery in the Sex Wizards series. I do recommend this series, but it is definitely a kink series, so understand that it has some taboos as well as healthy kink expression.Tree of Aeons 3 by spaizzzer, third in the ToA series. Four and a half stars, finished October 4, 2023.I absolutely…

I’m in a grumpy meh headspace today.Revolution by J.D. Olson, third in the Electrified series. Five stars, finished September 1, 2023.Very excitingThe number of changes our group of characters experience surprised me on looking back after finishing this book. It is both sudden and seems longer, but everyone has grown a lot. I didn’t expect the elemental realms to pack that much of a punch, but…

Yeah this is late lol. I still want to share it.Defiance of the Fall 10 by J.F. Brink/ TheFirstDefier, tenth in the DotF series. I honestly hate that this genre rarely names individual books. Five stars, finished August 9, 2023.Minimal side interruptionsI’m quite happy that this book almost exclusively follows Zac. I didn’t expect the two mentioned players, but I’m seeing a pattern. Very…

Oops! The new year seemed to fast forward time. My perception of time is shortening.Dungeon Mauling by Eric Ugland, third in the Good Guys series. Four stars, finished July 1.AmusingThis was an interesting read. I don’t feel like it had as much to offer as previous books, but Montana had some growth. I am now very interested in how magic works in this world, and what makes Montana different. He…
