2018 - 2019
Dec. 21st, 2018 04:03 pmThe year's coming to an end. I haven't used an online journal to write about anything or to anyone or for any sort of game in a very long time, but I think sporadically jotting down some thoughts could be fun. I don't take pictures or snapshots of my day to day life, so sometimes the time that does go by feels like it barely happened at all, like my memory is fading way more quickly than I'd like.
2018 was a little rough. Made a sudden move from Los Angeles (which was my home for almost 12 years) and now my husband and I are living in Temecula. It's still weird calling him my husband, as we'd been together for 12 years— soon to be 13 years —and only got married this past October. I've only just started telling my friends about this, which is fine. I don't really see the whole civil marriage part as a huge deal. We've been together so long, we already felt married before it happened. It was just making it official finally!
Working back in coffee again, but at a wage that's at least doable for now especially considering it's part-time. I love working here, though, at least in terms of the job itself. It's familiar, easy, and the people are great.
I started doing the keto diet (low carb AND low fat) which was tweaked a little by my doctor at the Women's health clinic because I learned that I have very high blood pressure. I'm 5'7" and was weighing in about 180 lbs. It doesn't sound terrible, but overall it was noticeably uncomfortable just being this heavy. Since I started the diet, I've gone down nearly 15 lbs, but I don't think it's enough. February 4th/5th is my last
day on this program, and while it seems far away. I think it's going to go by quick.
SO, that's an extremely brief explanation of the year in a nutshell! I don't think I'm going to write all my journal entries like this, but we'll see. Like I had an urge to write about how I just drove 40 miles to a different city so I could get a cup of coffee. It was mostly for the drive and the beautiful driving scenery.
