A third journal of personal musings

My life always continues to change and it only stands to reason that with each change, there should be a journal dedicated to it.

If you have a chance go watch The Lady In The Van (2016). She was also great in that movie!

Yes!! I love the details. It's why I'm such a fan of Stephen King (and why I understand when people say that they don't like it.), because I love having a picture drawn for me. So it's hard for me to step outside of that when the comfort of what I like is wrapped so tightly around me.

In response to "Dialogue"

I have read the all dialogue pieces people have written here. Not fun for me. I want a story with a point of view and details about the locations, traditions, and stories within a story. Oh, a few of the ones I read were good because those I liked were on the humorous side. I think you have read so much in your lifetime that, like me, you never read a book that was entirely dialogue. Another good entry.

In response to "Dear Mom and Dad"

I love the idea of this letter and the way you wrote it I could see your upbringing. They were going to/already went through so much. I especially liked the way you expressed your appreciation and looking at the bright side of things you had no control over. In many ways, because of their choices, they did not have much control over their own lives. Isn't it a shame we get caught up in living, working, and being so busy it is hard to see the big picture.

Thank you! It has been a long time coming for us! We were almost afraid it wouldn't ever happen. We always seemed to be a step behind the housing market (and the rental market for that matter lol). Going from a 660 sqft apartment to our house has been the best thing in my life lately! It still feels like a dream some days.

WIP

I still haven't really had a chance to be all that creative, but I'm working on it. It's been a struggle, but like I said I'm working on it. Trying to work on my stressers and things that trigger my anxiety and try to focus on myself. Which usually means forcing myself to make sure I do the things I want to do, rather than sitting around because my head is full of a fog because I've just let things get to me.

It's definitely been a tough year. I'm trying to make it so this next one isn't as tough. I want to get back into doing things that I want to do, letting myself focus on those things. I haven't really read anything. It's like I just can't focus on anything when I read and lose interest. It's been the same with a lot of things I've normally enjoyed, like video games and any real creative endeavors.

I'm starting to re-read my book of Lovecraft, to try and get some inspiration for my "13 Curves"

story. Something I was working on prior to my creativity shutting off. I'm hoping it will give me some inspiration for the "monster" and "evil/scary/horror" part of my WIP that I was stuck on before. I originally, when starting the story, wanted it to be an allegory, not necessarily an actual thing, but then I realized I can have both. So, I'm working on it. Matt and I were talking about Lovecraftian things and it was giving me some ideas or at least some vague ones that reading some of his stories might lead to some more in depth ideas.

So we will see.

For the rest of you, I'm hoping your creativity is flowing.

Me, like "13 Curves"

, is definitely a work in progress.
