It’s been a wild ride at work with the fact that our department head retired and a few other senior members left the company or just moved to different stores; though it’s been weird just trying to keep everything going with management despite a lot of those key changes, especially with employees under me. I’m finding it easier to keep my voice and actually act like a supervisor.

The hours are fine— though I admit that I’m closing more and more and just taking on mid shifts though I don’t like them much but I’m doing my best to maintain my motivation at work and at home; though I’m still slacking in a lot of things at home like exercising. That’s the toughest part about losing the weight I’m losing through Wegovy, which is formulated medicine to help with weight loss–Nearly lost 40 lbs on it, going from 164 to 129.

It’s just finding the time to actually exercise though, it’s also been a hell of a ride from having Covid and recovering from it just fine with no real complications or anything of the sort; though I can’t always be so lucky but I promise from what two days I have off which is usually Thursdays and Fridays, I can find time to exercise.

It’s almost spooky time!
Almost the end of the year and a lot of things are happening or will happen next year medically like crowns in my mouth which is a procedure that I have to finance which is a lot of money but worth it to save my teeth and like the end of my favorite anime shop: Anime Pop. The owner is retiring and all we have is bootleg anime stores which bums me out because I don’t believe in buying anything bootleg for any reason. Though I’m more sad that Marley will be 10 on Thanksgiving and that we’re throwing her another party, a Starbucks themed birthday party called “Starbarks.” Which is a clever name for sure, though I’m sadden that she’s no longer a puppy anymore and that she’s aging so fast before my eyes. Why is it difficult to adjust to this part of life? Especially for the greater life of a dog that doesn’t get that long of a life, but can still affect you badly after they go?

I plan on always having dogs in the house because I refuse to be alone, refuse to keep the love I have from Marley from going anywhere or just vanishing honestly. And I don’t want to be alone. I don’t want to even consider a life without my baby girl, and just…who didn’t say that life wasn’t so easy? It’s hard. Though I’m trying to be happy but it’s hard especially with work, medical things coming up and just everything. I hope if I come back in the next life, that I am a rock or something in the deepest part of the ocean or in the thermal vents because being human is just too tough for me. Being human is just too hard, just so much so but for now, I’ll appreciate Marley and the life I have plus it doesn’t hurt that I got a raise. I’m making 15 an hour now! WOOT!

plus I’m getting back into cosplay, which is fantastic and nerve wrecking all the same, though it’s all in the realm of possibility and of which I can only hope that I can find a little more time to have fun with.

    Congrats on the weight loss! I looked into Wegovy but there is no coverage for it and I can’t justify $400 a month on it. I already spend about $800 a month on insulin and CGMs. Its dumb too since wight loss can help reverse Type 2 diabetes.

    I can’t wait for Spooky Season. Fall and Halloween is my favorite time of the year. I love getting cozy in warmer clothes and have the heat of the summer behind us (for at least a few months anyways).

    I try not to think to much about that part of life with animals. I try to just enjoy the time that I have with them knowing they will always be in my heart and that I will fall in love with the next one just as much. I lost my cat last year but 2 years before he passed we got a 2nd one and then a month before he passed a 3rd and now I just concentrate on the 2 I have left but he is always in my thoughts and I know that I will see him again when the time is right (if you believe in that).

  • These are some exciting updates! Congrats on the weight loss and it’s really cool you’re getting into cosplay again. Love the Starbarks theme haha you should totally start a dog cafe with that name LOL
