Strange days

Its interesting right. I dont know if its that i moved into the wrong part of town... or if the town changed because i moved in. Everything i've been seeing about my section of the city doesnt at all seem sustainable. Really. If this is how things have always have been... How has it been allowed to go on for so long. Fireworks until 2 in the morning... Parties every night. Loud music every day. I dont get it. Is it that these people dont work therefor dont care? Or is it that no one is enforcing the laws in the area. That leads me to think that we are in total anarchy. I wonder if its like this in every major city. Where the citizens of the streets dictate how everything goes. I question if moving down the street by a quarter mile would have any impact on my quality of life. I question how everyone gets a long and there isnt massive riots in the street. personally im a bit fed up with it all. I cant stand the constant noise. First off i have a hard time determining if its real or now. Are the neighbors really talking about me? or is it just paranoid delusions that are going on in my head? They come and go and lately they havent been as bad... but it seems like there are a few that are spying on us... or at the very least dont give a shit about anything or anyone other than themselves.

The cats are a bit of trouble these days. They are about 12 weeks old now and growing every day. They have wayyy to much energy for me and getting to sleep at night isnt all that great. We had been putting them in a pen for the night but a couple of nights ago one got sick so im waiting for now to see if they are better. The pen is a good idea... its just tough because if they do get sick its a terrible mess.

thats all for now,

A lot of planning...

 So, seeing as I'm now out of work again I figure my current system isn't working. If i want to be successful in business and in life, then i need to get my basics down. Recently, I've started making sheets on excel to track what I'm doing everyday. they range everything from Diet and exercise to mood and symptoms. If i don't start tracking this stuff then I'm never going to make progress. While it's easy to put these items into practice using 1000s of apps... i found that just writing it all down on a few excel spreadsheets and tracking it by hand several times a day is a lot easier to remember. And it gets me off my phone. Lately I've be "Doom Scrolling" without any real purpose and what ends up happening is eventually the AI algorithm starts showing me videos of people dying in car crashes. Not exactly what makes me happy ya know. So I've got my lists and that's what I'll be working on for the foreseeable future while i attempt t...

A Bit of Hope on a Cloudy Afternoon.

Tonight we are heading over our friends' house to have dinner and hang out for a while. December 10th isn't really a memorable date. But every year around this time of year things start to happen that give tiny moments like these a real feeling of warming. Today even, it was nearly 60 degrees at one point today and it made this brutal cold seem bearable. It's not safe to be outside during the darkest of winter. Cold brings out the worst in people, and overall it's hard to handle because it also brings out the despair in people. Merge the two together and you could be looking at a cold dark society which emerges in the spring jaded working every year to bring happiness into ones life only to suffer the cold dark winter the following year. Today i have hope though. Recently i was inspired after talking with people that care about me. The best part is... a renewed sense of hope can alter the mind in such a way... it's better than any drug or substance that you can use ...

No Sooner Did I Say....

 No sooner did i mention that I have a new job, was i laid off for excessive days off. It's really for the birds. Here i am a disabled person who wants to work... and I've had an incredibly hard time hold down a job this year. Whether it be manic episodes due to the medication my doctor put me on, or the company pulling a bait and switch and finding due to that I'm not qualified for the position, to being out sick a couple of days and getting let go... this year has been terrible. While I've had frequent thoughts of a permanent "Out" for myself from this life... it would seem like a waste to get from an unsuccessful suicide attempt in 2008 to giving it another go 17 years later. I feel like if i survived the first attempt... then i must be here on this planet for some reason so i need to make the best of my time. Even in poor health, an optimistic attitude can make the difference between healing or not.   I don't know what my plan is now. But, i know that ...
