Friday & then holiday!

 Today will hopefully go by fast. Yesterday I got a hold of one painter and his estimate is pending. The other one was talking to me until I sent him the pics and then nothing. So, yeah. That could of actually been because of my stupid mother or brother though. If he recognized me. 

We got a little snow last night so I will need to go warm up the car soon and probably scrape off some ice. Our surprise from our bosses was meh. That is what I get for having any kind of expectation, especially when they set the bar so low in the first place. It is what it is and no fucking bonus. But again. I should expect these things. Our raises got approved for Jan 1st and that is all that counts at the moment. I am really grateful for that and the fast that I have a job. 

I have a lot to be grateful for this year even though it was a bit rough at times. I made it through with flying colors. I accomplished two wait three huge things I set out for myself. I finished that NEDP program. I am a graduate. I started and finished my first semester of college! With amazing grades. Grateful for those opportunities and the drive to push through. I am grateful for my job even though that has been less than fun in realizations this year. But it is an easy, good paying job. I am very grateful for that. 

Grateful to be peeling off this old me and walking into this new me. I am proud of myself. Continued sobriety has been a blessing and I plan to keep going. Holding onto my boundaries even if they make me feel bad. I know they are for the better good. 

And soon to be a homeowner! It hasn't sunk in yet even though this whole year we have been working our asses off for this moment. But soon. We will feel it and honestly all I see is me walking through our new home in pure gratitude. 

I will sit in gratitude for the time I have off of work and school. I will be spending the time off preparing for my new home and thanking this home for being the start of many amazing things for my little family. 

It is time to get ready though. Kiddo needs to get out of the shower, now apparently my sister needs me to take her kiddo who has not been to school all week to school and I need to of course, poo.

Journal prompts

 I have been looking at them on Pinterest to try and boost my writing as I don't have much to say lately. I thought it was late, but when I woke it was only 8am. Good enough I guess. A nap will be needed as I have bowling tonight. My neck did not like the way I slept. So that is fun.  Today is purge the kitchen day and well there is a lot that can go. Then I will slowly be making it into a brand new kitchen once we move. With matching cups and shit. One of the prompts. Goal for the next 30 days: to have patience in this underwriting process and pray it all goes smoothly here on out. Each week we are preparing to move. Purging this week. Organizing what needs boxes next week, calling movers. Then packing. Lots of cleaning and cleansing. Giving thanks to this place for the last 10 years.  I think while I am off of school until the 15th, that I am going to bring back my altar. I have not done any readings in a while and to prepare for the new year I should. So, finishing up ...

Some things to leave in 2024

 Other than this blog for the past year. I am releasing some major things this New Black Moon and I am going to do it as proper as I can. I need everything 2025 has to offer and I am going to put my best efforts to accomplish my goals.  I have the list ready to be burned and when the moon peaks at 5ish this evening, I will be ready to burn it with my full intentions for this upcoming year. I let myself fall off the health and fitness path, but I am going to get back on it. Little by little. Mental health first. Leaving behind self doubt and thinking that I am fat. Because I am not. A little out of shape, but not gross. I need to stop thinking that I am not worthy of the things in my life. No matter how they came to me, I deserve a good life and I have worked hard for it. I will continue to do so. I am going to release the anxiety and fear that things have been good so something bad is coming. I will accept the ups and downs as they come.  I release the judgement of others...

Pending

 Finally the house is showing as pending online and that made me feel better even though my anxiety is high for this incoming week already.  School is busy with a lot of shit to do and then more comes in on Friday to Monday to end the semester. All I can say about that is then I am on break until January 16th. I am off this Thursday for hubby's bday and need to try and focus on how to make it a decent day even though we can't spend any money. Should be easy enough.  Wondering what is going to come from the house business is stressing me the fuck out. Wish we would get answers a little faster. Just need to pray at this point and try to ground myself. Sleep would be good as I did not get it last night with the fucking wind.  So yeah now that my lectures are finally done for the day. I will be laying in bed awaiting sleep. But hubby decided to go out so probably won't sleep until he gets home so there's that. Kind of pissing me off this week already and he doesn't seem...
