New Glasses!

Hey there everybody! Sorry for the late post. I was busy yesterday and y'all just slipped from my mind.  This week has been pretty good,  I guess. I have still been struggling with the feeling that I am a glitch and a screwup, so TC sent me the picture he made. When I got it, I started crying because it spoke to me. I have it set as my lock screen on my phone,  and I've been reading it multiple times. I also got new glasses this week! I have been needing new glasses for a couple years and I am so happy to finally have them. The clear ones are my everyday ones, and the black pair are back up ones. I got Panda colored glasses. Bridey was very happy with that connection. Only one week until Rebekah gets back, two until Bridey gets back, and three until Lissie comes back. I don't know how I'm gonna stand it. My first book is still in editing and I may have the cover squared away. I have already started on my second, and so far people like it. I hope y'all enjoy it. Anyw

What I Am

Hey everybody. This week was okay, and I'll get into the heart of the post later. Sunday I finished the first draft of my book. Like, all chapters written and everything!!! I have been working on this thing for just over four years now, and it feels great to have the first draft done. Bridey and Bekah have said that they would like to be my editors, so they both have a copy of it and are going to edit and help me finish it. Lissie has agreed to help me with the cover design, and hopefully, I should have it for sale on Kindle and in hardcover at the end of the year. That's the dream, anyway. My last 5 week class started this week. It's called The Life and Teachings of Jesus. I am enjoying it so far, and it is a lot of reading, which I love. I have to finish my week's work today, so that's what I'm mostly going to be doing. I also have been working on Lissie's birthday present this week. I can't say what it is because she reads this blog and it would spoil

ENGLISH CLASS IS OVER!!

Hello Humans! As you can tell by my title, my Lit class is over! I am over the moon excited about that because that class caused more nightmares and panic attacks than I have had in the past 7 months alone. Good grief. All of the stories were horror level bad. I'm just glad that it's over. Sorry for not posting last week. I hadn't slept in almost 48 hours and y'all just slipped from my mind. Hey, I'm only human. These past few days I have become more and more obsessed with Peter Hollens. I swear, the man is fantastic. He and his wife are professional singers and both started Acapella groups at U of O. So, yeah. They're amazing. I'll link my favorite video that he has made below. Life has been okay, I suppose. I've been really missing school and my friends and such. It's been tough being apart. My dad said to look into train tickets to go see Bridey, and it would be a 13.5 hour trip one way. That is ridiculous. I could drive down there in half the tim

Drowsiness, Thy Name is Marlee

Hey everybody! Sorry this post is late. This week has been a week of laying low and resting. The wisdom teeth removal on Tuesday went well, and I'm recovering nicely, I hope. I have been on pain meds and antibiotics since Tuesday, and they have helped somewhat. The pain meds make me drowsy, and I can barely stay awake during the day and keep my head up. I have been watching movies and T.V. shows mainly Hogan's Heroes and movies that don't make me smile or laugh because it hurts. I'm still very sore, but not swollen. Only one cheek swelled up after the surgery, which was nice. Thursday night was probably the best night of the week. Lissie and I got to talk for a long time, and she called me to talk about some stuff that I was dealing with. I don't want to go into details yet, but I may in a later post. Let's just say I've been struggling with a lot of stuff. Still no luck with the job search, so I'm still frustrated by that. I also have to pay something f
