Journal prompts, again...Hey at least I'm writing! :)

 How do you believe you could have a life you absolutely love?

It all boils down to money. Money may not buy happiness, but it certainly allows you the freedom. In a capitalist society, money=freedom=happiness. So. Yes, it does. I'd love my life if I had the money and freedom to travel, or to make my home surroundings as comfortable as possible. Or, eventually, both. Enough money might even buy me a kidney. I've heard those on Medicaid are lower on the list. I hope that's just a rumor, because if not, it's fucking classist as hell. But what can I expect from this country anymore, ugh.

What advice would you give to last year's you?

Don't ever lie to Chloe; she can see right through you. Chill out on the drinking. You don't NEED to drink to be a good karaoke host. Hang in there, mind your diet and fluids, and you'll be okay. And get off your ass and get some damn exercise. Even if it's just your PT exercises.

Favorite memory last year?

I don't even know. At my age, I feel like memories blur together and are harder to pinpoint. Birthday was good. No Snug party this year though, my bday is on a Friday, I kinda wanna go a little bigger. Maybe. Or maybe I'll just chill and hang out with Chloe and the kitties. Haven't decided yet. Summer was fun, with our monthly BBQs. Although they were a little expensive. Maybe not EVERY month this summer? Idk, I'll talk to Chloe about it and see what she thinks.

Three self-care habits you want to try?

Well, we now have a sauna in our dining/living room, so that. :) Regular sauna sits. Bathing more often than once a week. That's two. Hmmm... Cleaning up my environment (my room). Reorganize my room so it reorganizes my brain, lol.

Search affirmations and pick 5 for the new year.

  1. I trust myself to make thoughtful choices.
  2. My emotions are valid
  3. I choose patience over pressure.
  4. I believe in my abilities
  5. I learn from mistakes without shame.

What word do you want to bring with you into the new year?

Ooh, that's a tough one. What will the word of 2026 be? As I'm thinking that, the word that keeps popping in my head is RESILIENCE. Was that 2025's word, though? Not intentionally. SO resilience is my intentional word for 2026.

One way you have already lived into your word so far this year.

Well, Bing describes resilience as the capacity to withstand or to recover quickly from difficulties; toughness. I think I bounce back pretty well from challenges. I haven't had a whole lot since New Year's, though, so not sure how I've lived it yet.

Something new you want to try this year?

Ideally, renting an RV for a couple nights this summer and going camping! Yeah baby!


Ok thats enough for now. I've already talked about my resolutions and stuff, so I'll leave that out of this entry. I suppose I will talk about it again eventually. Tho my mom did say it looks like I am losing some weight, yay! Working towards that transplant list....
