The Harem

[Lex]

I have a few friends that cosplay for the fun of it... and honestly they do ok when they can put the effort in but its a lot of time and money to do it professionally some of them work full time and only go to certain events.

Ive been having some weirdly normal style dreams lately. Like watching another me... in the life i want...it feels kinda sad.

Im so glad you had such a good time and that your littlw one got to have an event himself. Legos are awesome.

Has work been alot since you got home?
How are you doing over all?
*hands you a mai tai and plants you down next to the pool.*
Tell me about your day dear.😊🍹

Ugh, those dreams sound difficult! I always find it trippy when a dream feels too realistic. I prefer weird stuff if I'm honest!

Work has been up and down, some days busy and some slow. Still working on updating the bedroom, also dealing with ants in the house and air conditioner issues now that it's super hot out! Trying to get it all dealt with so we can enjoy the summer. Spent a lot of the weekend outdoors. Trying to convince my husband that we should go to the beach soon! He's not a beach lover.

I've been a bit tired lately, not feeling very motivated to work or do any of my creative hobbies. I just want to read and watch TV! I'm hoping to get a new surge of motivation soon. For now I will sit by the pool with your and our mai tais!!

How is your week going?

Its been a mixed bag!

The renovations to.the basement took a turn today, we found hidden mold and lots of it. So what went to us redpijg the basement floor turned into us getting the mold situation handled because of course.

Had an interview today, and Im excited for the chance to work again, Ill find out next week if the job is mine.

*flops onto the deck chair and picks up a drink*
Honestly its life when thing go smooth you gotta know something is gonna knock you for a loop somewhere else.
Dad getting worse health wise but thats to be expected. He doesnt really take care of himself, he kinda just feela like hes given up.

Ex husband is sorting out his arrangements for where hes gonna be living after something I cant even explain typing, needleaa to say hes saving up and will be leaving soon.

As for dinner Im making Gyros.
*lays back in the sunshine*
Here is hoping the day and months ahead get brighter.

Ugh, sorry about finding the mold in your basement! We went through mold remediation at an old job of mine and it was no fun!! Made everything take longer.

Yay about the interview!! Crossing my fingers for you! What kind of job is it, if you don't mind me asking?

I have a similar problem with my mom, not so much that she doesn't take care of her health, but that she doesn't take care of anything else. It's more like... administrative tasks? My dad passed away two years ago and she hasn't taken care of everything related to that, like closing accounts and taking his name off things, etc. It takes her months to get one thing done. And she's not willing to get help either. I live far away, but when I offer to help with things she doesn't send me what I need to do them. When I offered to help her hire a part time personal assistant to do this stuff for her, she rejected that idea too. In the end I've kind of had to take a step back and let go for my own mental health because worrying about her doesn't seem to help anything.

I'm glad for you that the ex is working on moving out! You deserve your space without him.

Gyros sounds yummy! Let me know how they turned out. We had homemade pizzas last night and before that I made a pot roast that fed us for about 4 days lol. We were all thoroughly sick of it by the end, so I'll probably not make it again for a long time.

*sits back and sips my drink, enjoying the warm sun and cool breeze*

*Pours a tall glass of guiness and cocktails* I need a new life *laughs*

Ive had a few friends call and one random person i used to know in college just tell me the wildest stories of their life and whats happened since... I don't even have words.

I should of gone into couselling our therapy with how regularly people tell me there deepest and darkest.
I wonder if anyone is truly well anymore.

I never imagined this person going into detail... but he legit poored his whole life story on me from his wedding to now. And honestly it was WILD.

*sips drink* do you have friends or people that do this to you? Or just end up on the outskirts of drama listening?
