Am I the only one who feels like this? I can be surrounded by people I love and love me but still feel alone in the very huge world? I guess that is why they call it depression. I am sure I am not the only one but depression has that funny way of making … ... mehr auf elainamargo.wordpress.com
I keep coming here and staring at my blog. I feel guilty that I haven’t posted for so long. It actually makes me sad. I have decided I can’t do it anymore. All I do is complain and even I don’t want to hear myself complain anymore. Life for me has become just one big […]... mehr auf grannyreports.wordpress.com

When I first started this blog, I really had intended to write about my thoughts and feelings on getting older. I ended up posting about other things and this blog has no real direction. I think I was trying hard to actually avoid posting about my true feelings and experiences for the most part. When […]... mehr auf grannyreports.wordpress.com
After two weeks of avoiding stores, I must venture out. It’s a very strange feeling in the stores right now, isn’t it? A lot of people with nervous faces as they glance here and there very quickly to see if anyone is getting close to them. I’ve even seen people flatten themselves face first against […]... mehr auf grannyreports.wordpress.com
I have been stuck in this tiny world of mine for way too long. I don’t really have friends and I don’t visit family. I work and go home. Lately, I have been feeling trapped in this tiny world of mine. I’m not the sharpest tool in the shed, but I am smart enough to […]... mehr auf grannyreports.wordpress.com
I find myself so full of emotions right now that I can’t even clearly tell how I feel. I am scared, sad, mortified, angry and frustrated all at once. I feel that our country is tearing apart from the inside out and it gives me a hopeless and helpless feeling. I find I am so […]... mehr auf grannyreports.wordpress.com
I can hardly believe today is the last day of April. I blinked and the month is gone! Even though I have nothing to say at this time, I’m still counting this as a daily post. I am cheating. I challenged myself to post every day of April, and I did it! I doubt I […]... mehr auf grannyreports.wordpress.com
Sometimes, the sadness hits me so fast and hard that I can’t breathe. Frustrations, guilt, regrets, anger. I try to push it all back most of time, but I think it doesn’t leave. It just stays in a corner and builds up pressure. When the pressure is too much, it explodes and throws it all […]... mehr auf grannyreports.wordpress.com
Dear teenage self: All the crap your mind tells you and all of the weird stuff you do is just OCD. They are only thoughts and not reality. Stay strong and ignore them! It gets easier with time and practice. You are enough and you just keep being true to yourself. Don’t try to please […]... mehr auf grannyreports.wordpress.com
Dear IRS, No, wait. Why would I start my letter with “Dear”? Let me start over. To Whom It May Concern at IRS, I couldn’t afford to pay all of my self-employment taxes this year, so I set up a 4 month payment plan. That’s what it said, anyway. Apparently, I can pay whenever during […]... mehr auf grannyreports.wordpress.com

I might be wrong, I am frequently wrong, but I think we make life so much harder than it needs to be. We seem to live just to place stress upon ourselves and others. It starts with children. I mean young children. When I was a child, Kindergarten was an option and not really necessary. […]... mehr auf grannyreports.wordpress.com
How did it happen? How is it possible to be November 1st? I swear yesterday was the Fourth of July and I woke up this morning (at 2:45 am, I might add) and it is November 1st! Time flies by for me. I go through days that are so long I don’t think I will […]... mehr auf grannyreports.wordpress.com
After using my old computer for about ten years, I broke down and got a new one from Cyberpowerpc. That’s what my old one is and after my son does some work on it, it should work for a while longer. We are going to use it as a back-up. The new one is so […]... mehr auf grannyreports.wordpress.com
I might just start posting facts about me (because I’m just that important and interesting! hehe) once a week. I have good and bad sides, just as everyone else. I might as well share a bad one. One that I know is true and I have tried to change (and have been somewhat successful I […]... mehr auf grannyreports.wordpress.com
Happiness is scattered all over, torn and tossed about. I wonder if I can gather the pieces and put it back together? Maybe it’s like a puzzle and I just need to fit the scraps of happiness into their proper places. It’s not like I’m miserable now, It’s just not the same as it used […]... mehr auf grannyreports.wordpress.com
I have noticed a funny feeling that started gradually, but seems to be picking up speed. It’s hard to put into words. I guess the best way to describe it is a fracturing of myself. I’m not as connected to this person I used to be. I’m slowly tearing apart from that person. My body […]... mehr auf grannyreports.wordpress.com
How NOT to live for Dummies. A new series for the books! When I think back on life, I just mutter to myself, “WTF was I thinking?” The post title suggests this is how I would write the opening sentence if I started my autobiography today. My answer might be different tomorrow. It just depends […]... mehr auf grannyreports.wordpress.com
I don’t understand myself at all. I am a mystery, even to myself. I am terrified of being around people I don’t know and I am painfully shy even though I can talk your ear off if I know you. At the same time, I crave being around people. I miss being around people. I […]... mehr auf grannyreports.wordpress.com
Well, it is December again. And that means….car trouble! Every dang December my car has some major life crisis. Driving home from work on Tuesday the check engine light popped on.

I mentioned before that I’m trying to take things one day at a time and stay positive. I was feeling good because for the first time in a long time, we had enough money to pay all the bills without juggling money or having to eat Cup of Noodles for a week solid.

Dream slime is the first thing I thought of when I woke at 1 am after another bad dream. I’ve been having a lot of them lately. Some dreams just leave their residue all over you and it doesn’t shake off. It clings like slime and I frantically try to scrape it off. Trying to […]... mehr auf grannyreports.wordpress.com
I remember I used to draw spirals a lot when I was a kid. I have no idea why, really, unless I somehow knew I would feel this is how life goes. Maybe I felt the effects of the spiral sensation even when I was young. I run along the path, going in circles. The […]... mehr auf grannyreports.wordpress.com

What does this mean? I think it means to be true to your core values and to work towards goals that are important to you. It can make life more meaningful and enjoyable.

Here we are again. The last day of the year. The night to party and make resolutions. I used to make resolutions, but I don’t anymore.

Up at 3 am, again. Bad dreams wake me and my bladder insists to be emptied. “Can’t you wait another couple of hours?” I plead. But, no, my bladder needs assistance now.

I really like this quote. It brings to mind peace and contentment. I am going to try to pay attention to the spring. I am going to look around at all the flowers, and look up at the hectic trees.

I have been trying to find people from my past. People I worked with 40 years ago that I was very fond of. I can picture a few of them so perfectly, and they were such nice people. Why, then, can’t I remember their names? The names are just gone from my memory. POOF! I […]... mehr auf grannyreports.wordpress.com

As some of you know (as I’m pretty sure I have complained about it at some point), I am very particular about numbers. I do NOT like odd numbers. My least favorite number is three. When young, I was convinced the number 3 was a demon or the devil or at least something pure evil. […]... mehr auf grannyreports.wordpress.com

I am trying to keep my daily posts silly and light. But, my daughter just got a jury summons. This is upsetting for two reasons.

Lately, a word to describe me is “mysterious”. What will my mood be today? Happy, silly, sad, frustrated, ambitious, lazy, childish, grumpy or nuetral? Even I don’t know from day to day! One thing is for sure. Don’t ask me to make any important decisions before my coffee. Just don’t, ok?... mehr auf grannyreports.wordpress.com
