DISTRACTION

Hello… so, if you have been following my blogs, you know I am currently on this self rediscovery journey. It started off good for like a week… then the moment I go out drinking, my motivation lessened. My routine broke, which I was still adjusting to.

Now, I don’t drink everyday nor do I even keep alcohol in my house. But when I go out to socialize, I do tend to drink more than I should. And then it just messes me up for days. So now that I am relearning myself, I am realizing going out and getting drunk is not helping me, while I’m on this journey.

Do I have trouble saying no? Yes haha. It’s hard because when I go out to socialize, I do want to lessen the control of my mind so yes, alcohol helps… I do think I also like the social act of picking up a drink though, being in a bar… so what are some mocktails I could order at any bar?

I don’t want to NOT go out and be comfortable being alone because I have done that and, for me personally, I don’t think it’s healthy. Anyways, hope you guys are doing well. Thank you for following me 🙂

***SCROLL DOWN FOR REPLIES AND THOUGHTS***

Let’s take it back… haha

Haha I remember this music video, Pamela Anderson looking fine of course.

Was focusing more on me and less on the screen

BLACK MIRROR (Netflix) * * * * *
I love Black Mirror. Such great unique shorts. The new season I think I did expect way more than received but it was still good. Crazy messed up twists. Although one I knew already and I hate when it’s predictable.

JOY RIDE (In Theaters) * * * * *
This is not the horror one, this is asian female leads and OH EM GEE IT WAS F***ING HILARIOUS! DO NOT TAKE YOUR KIDS HAHA! If you loved Girls Trip, you’ll love this too. It was funny, raunchy and also heartfelt because duh it about girlfriends. Get your group of girls and go see this! Now! lol

Some entertainment I recommend if you have nothing to watch: American Monster Series

SLEEP!

MY SLEEP SUUUUUUUCKS! I am a huge toss and turner. My friend had gotten me a weighted blanket and OMG, believe it or not, I can get decent sleep if I am sleeping with my weighted blanket. Also, you would think you would get hot with a weighted blanket, but it’s actually cooling and so comforting like a bear cuddling you. I read it’s great for people who are light sleepers or have restless leg syndrome. Try it!

Weighted Blanket on Amazon

NOSTALGIA

This might be a weird nostalgic section this time… It’s more like an experience and wondered if anyone felt the same. When I was younger to like my teenage years, after taking a shower and opening the bathroom door to a dark silent home (hallway) used to give me weird sad feelings. I wasn’t scared but the feeling of being wet and seeing darkness felt like sadness. Never failed getting that feeling. Now I have a home with my son and husband with all the lights on and tv or music on. I wonder if I would still feel that…
