Short & sweet. .

Today is definitely better than yesterday, I made sure I didn't get as aggravated as I usually do when I get home. See I deal with folks that don't know how to clean up after themselves. I mean, I don't mind cleaning up after my youngest & her Daddy, but my stepdaughter is another story. She is old enough to do things herself, like clean up her own messes, but since she's been treated as if she can't do anything herself, it aggravates folks like me. Those who have been raised to clean up after themselves even at home, not just when you're visiting someone else's home, and do as you're told without fussing about it, oh and manners. 

That's what we're working on with my youngest, learning to listen, using manners, cleaning up after herself, the same way I was taught by Mother & Dad. As well as, not whining when talking, and throwing temper tantrums. I hate when I hear, I'll give you something to cry for, no you won't, you're just going to make it worse with that mindset. Anyway, off I go .. remember, stay humble

So, I have to name my post ...

Well, I named it. So, today wasn't too terrible, not too much overthinking, considering workflow was super slow today, as far an internal communications go. Down time throws me in to overdrive on the ole thinking to much. My overdrive is worse when I know my beloved is struggling with his own feelings & work drama. I try to find ways to help, even if it's simply telling him, I'm here when he's ready to talk, or just giving him extra hugs. He uses natural plant based products for dealing with his anger issues & other issues he may have. And that's okay with me, as long as he's happy, I'm happy. And no, I've not lost myself by being that way with him, I just absolutely admire, respect, adore & love him that much. I am a simplistic person, I don't want too much, just simple living as best I can. The simplest thing can entertain me, i like keeping it that way.

My introduction

Hey, welcome to my twisted since of self. As I mentioned on my about me page, my name is Dustie, I live in a small rural area in Southern Ohio. The purpose of my page is to hopefully help others in their everyday life of dealing with some form of mental "illness". I put the illness in parentheses, because I don't see it as an illness, an illness to me, is like the flu, pneumonia or a HORRIBLE cold. I have a mental issue, an issue I choose not to be medicated over, that is a personal preference. Yes, I've been on meds, celexa, lexapro, zoloft, and I think that's it *insert thinking emoji here* . I don't like feeling like I'm in a walking haze, again, personal preference. I will ramble on & on, that's what I do, and again, like mentioned on my welcome/home page, I am grammatically challenged, so please, don't contact me over my grammar, or lack of, I am aware of it, thank you :) That's why I said it to begin with on the main page. Anyway, t...

A dive into the past

So, let's get some back history to me, and probably 1 of the many reasons I am the way I am at my age. When i was about 7, it was the very early 1980s, my uncle, his wife, & my cousin had come to visit, they had a friend with them. Everyone had been drinking & smoking, and my Dad, being the responsible person he was, didn't want them driving back to their houses, so everyone stayed over night. My brother & sister both we're gone, sleeping over at their friends house, I was the only 1 home, I was picked to stay home to play with my little cousin.   As everyone slept, i remember being in my brother's room sleeping in the bed with my little cousin, my sister had latched our door shut & I couldn't reach the lock. And my uncle's friend came in & woke me, which I was kind of awake, because my little cousin had wet the bed. Anyway, dude proceeded to pick me up, like he was taking me into my room to change my clothes. Instead of changing me, he laid ...
