I feel like fat hippo because of covid…

Posted on by Private Person

Last year was so awful, I was worried about the bushfires, then catching covid so now I can’t wait for it to be over. I didn’t look around the shop like it used to, so I wasn’t getting enough exercise. I over ate sometimes and now I feel just lazy, bloated sometimes, and I know I put on weight.

I’ve been watching a show called supersize v super skinny which I’m enjoying. I’m learning that I didn’t eat enough of the good foods and maybe too much of the bad. Bf and I are now trying to eat healthier and with winter coming, its easier to make bread, stews and even just to put the oven on.

Eating healthier #1

Posted on by Private Person

Bf and I are trying to eat healthier now. It was interrupted by Easter chocolate, but now all that’s over, we can go back to healthy foods.

I found some sourdough English muffins on sale at Woolies, so thought I would try them. I wanted some sourdough bread to try since its meant to be good for the gut.

Today I made for breakfast and lunch, a English muffin toasted, with ricotta cheese, chia seeds, drizzle of maple syrup and a few cherries. The syrup and cherries are just because I read a diet book, but I won’t buy them again. I need to cut out white processed sugar, bread and junk.

Its getting easier to ignore chocolate in the supermarket. Its also easier still to just buy online and have it delivered.

I need to grow…

Posted on by Private Person

I’ve been trying to push myself to do new things the past almost 2 years since my funding was approved. It normally doesn’t go as well as I had hoped, but at least I’m able to leave the house and I’m still alive.

I still want to work and travel and a lot more things I hope I can do in the future when covid is finally over.

Bittersweet dreams…

Posted on by Private Person

I’m still having trouble sleeping. I just lie in bed thinking about things, staring at the ceiling. When I do get to sleep, its broken and my bf snores, so that keeps me awake and wakes me as well.

I wish I could tell the CV and psychologist off, but I’m powerless. They are going to get away with doxxing me and turning my life upside down.

I wish I could have beautiful dreams of sunny warm days, picnics with friends and happy days. Not nightmares about betrayal and lies.

Maybe things will get better in the future. Hopefully.

Art therapy helped me last year, now I want to publish a book…

Posted on by Private Person

Last year I started sharing my drawings on another blog, Pinterest and Instagram. Those accounts are deleted now, but I want to share some on this site so I can try to get a book published.

It really helped me last year when I was stuck at home, being anxious and depressed all the time, to draw my feelings. I’m bad at drawing and they come out crappy and crude, but they are honest, so that’s all I care about. My drawings are for me really, and I had been making them for years until last year I decided to share some. Until then, I hadn’t told a soul about them.

Some are self explanatory, but some, are really abstract and may be hard to interpret for people not living in my brain.

I hope readers enjoy them and maybe get something thing from it like I did making them.
