Let It Go Friday

Happy Friday😊! What a week it has been. I was at the dentist’s office on Tuesday, which took much longer than necessary, but they did nothing, and I had to return yesterday. The appointment yesterday was x-rays and a cleaning, and the appointment was not nearly as long as my appointment on Tuesday was, and it went rather well. I spoke with the head dentist, who reviewed the x-rays and helped me determine a better way to move forward on Monday when I will be returning a third time for minor dental work. This is huge for someone who fears going to the dentist, three appointments within days of one another. It was about two hours before I made it home, and when I pulled into the house, I was greeted by two of my outside kitty friends. It was adorable to come home to them waiting for me to give them more food. It seems my outside kitty crew is more excited when I come home than my inside cats, but that is probably because the inside crew expects me to be home and feed them.

We are at the end of the week and look forward to another short weekend. With that said, we must try to let go of any negative feelings we experienced during the week that might be harboring. Why waste time holding onto those negative feelings when something has not been corrected or changed, yet we cannot do anything about it now? Anything that might have occurred at work, all of the issues we experienced will remain until Monday. Next week could offer us another chance to make changes. If something in our personal lives goes wrong and we feel resentment or hostility, we can take the weekend to reconsider what occurred and deal with the issues when we have the necessary clear and calm mind. No matter what caused the negative emotions, we must laugh as much as possible, apologize when we should, and let go of what we cannot change. We might forget these simple things when we are feeling upset or angry. I hope the quote I shared resonates with you and helps you to see things more clearly and let go of anything you cannot change immediately.

Do you have anything planned for the weekend? The weather has not been friendly lately, as there have been crazy storms. Many areas experienced tornadoes, and if you live in one of those areas, I hope you remain safe. I find tornadoes intriguing and extremely terrifying. It blows my mind how suddenly the sky attacks at random areas. There seems to be no logic in the path of the tornado. The weather changes sporadically, so I never know what to expect. Yesterday, it looked like it would rain with the possibility of thunderstorms all weekend, but now it appears it will be cloudy. It doesn’t matter what the weather does anymore because I plan to be home either cleaning, writing, reading, or simply relaxing!!

Thank you for visiting my site today! I hope you found the quote I shared helpful to let go of negative emotions, and you can enjoy your weekend in peace. Remember that when another person causes us to feel frustrated or angry, they may not remember the disagreement, and it causes them no distress, so we should not let it ruin our weekend. I am under the belief that when I leave the house, I do not care what another person thinks about me because they do not have to interact with me if they do not want to. I try avoiding people as much as I can because most people irritate me with their demeanor, plus we might have a lot of things we do not see eye to eye on. I will respond to all comments as quickly as possible! Please never forget I am always sending y’all LOTS of love, comfort, support, and MANY positive vibes!

Always, Alyssa

Happy Friday, everyone! I hope you had a wonderful week and are looking forward to a relaxing weekend. I am unsure if it has been the same where you live, but Mother Nature cannot decide what season it is. Springtime temperatures can fluctuate, but this is getting out of control and slightly obnoxious. It seems on one day, the temperature is on the cooler side, but the next day is way too hot and more like summertime weather, which should not happen for a few more months. For reasons I am unsure of, I have been battling with headaches and severe leg and foot pain for a while now, and it is getting worse instead of better. The leg and foot pain does get progressively more intense as the day goes on and used to only get bad at night, and now it is getting unbearable mid-afternoon.

Typically, I would say the increased pain had something to do with stress, but the only thing I am stressed about is getting a job, and I know it will get easier once I complete my class. Others might be feeling stressed about the massive coverage of the former president’s trials, and I can honestly say I do not care much about them because whatever is going to be is going to be, and I cannot change what happens. Yes, I can speculate what I think will happen, but there is no point because that will only frustrate me. I have decided that none of the political nonsense, including the former president’s trials, is worth my time, and I avoid them as much as possible, or at least until my husband is watching them and I cannot get away from them.

Fridays are the perfect day to let go of any negative emotions the week may have created so that we can enjoy the weekend to the fullest. There is no point in dwelling on anything negative when we have a weekend to enjoy! There are many things we can control and acknowledge those we cannot control and just let them be what they are and do whatever they are going to do. Life is too short to focus on negativity or anything we cannot change. If we can remember this, our lives could be complete and much happier in the long run. I hope the quote I am sharing will help this message set in, and you will be able to let go of anything negative you might be feeling and enjoy your weekend!

Thank you for visiting my site today. I apologize I did not finish my post about ways to overcome stress, but with how I was feeling, I was not able to put as much effort into it as it deserves. I hope I will be able to complete this before the weekend ends because I think it will be helpful information for anyone dealing with massive or even minimal levels of stress. I hope you enjoy this post and look forward to seeing your comments. I will respond to any comments as quickly as possible. I hope you have a wonderful weekend and stay as safe as possible. Please never forget I am always sending y’all LOTS of love, comfort, support, and MANY positive vibes!

Saturday Thoughts

Anyone who has read my blogs knows I have a strong love for animals, finding it easy to communicate and form bonds with them. I have mentioned several times I started feeding a couple of what appear to be feral outside cats a few months ago. During the first few days, only two cats were noticed on the front porch, so naturally, I began talking to and feeding them. To my surprise, it seems like the cat is out of the bag, pun intended, and currently, there are between six and eight kitty visitors who come for a good meal at least twice a day. Word has spread quickly through the neighborhood kitty community about the house that always has food, fresh water, a box with a soft towel for them to get warm on the colder nights, and an outdoor kitty house so they can stay comfortable and dry on the many rainy days and nights. Between the adorable cat house and a place to sleep, it should not be surprising numerous cats have adopted our porch as their new home.

From what I have seen, the outside cats get along with each other, at least for the most part. Thankfully, there have only been a couple of altercations between the outside kitty gang. Mostly, the disagreements witnessed were a lot of unhappy and unimpressed kitty language. The cat I know is a boy who is a super sweet tomboy and is typically accommodating with the gang of frequent visitors, but I think it is because they are female, and he could be the father of some of them. One night, there was a visitor I had never seen before. As the new cat ate, the well-known tomboy sniffed around before both cats communicated their unsettling feelings, and the tomboy chased the new cat away. I think the new cat is a boy, and the known cat acts territorial because he is convinced, the porch belongs to him. He marked his territory and only shared with cats of his choosing.

Now that the neighborhood cats have spread the word about where to get a meal, the only thing I can do is to oblige with their demands.  Unfortunately or fortunately, depending on the perspective, I cannot say no, turn cats away, or let the precious cats go hungry because they deserve more and better than that kind of life. I know many people are fine having their cats indoors and outdoors, but too much can happen to them in the wild. Our cats have always been strictly indoors only because I would worry too much and cause myself to have a heart attack if they did not come home for days. I worry now when I do not see the outside cats for more than one day. I might be wrong keeping our cats prisoner in the house, but at least I know they are safe, and it is a cushy prison.

Not only do we have between six and eight cats we feed outside, but we have two inside cats as well. There is at least one possum and one groundhog who eat the cat food on the porch. It seems like we are running a smaller version of a zoo. If I had my way and my husband and two cats would allow it, I would have a house full of animals. I almost think it would be easier to convince my husband that the two cats because the cats can be a little moody and combative, but overall they are sweet little furry angels. Some people want a house full of children, but we have always treated our cats like they were our children, so the only differences are the number of legs and worrying about what those with two-leg children have to deal with.

There are billions of people living in the world, and for reasons I will never understand, struggle with getting along with each other. As I have watched the interactions between our cats and those outside, they have proven to get along with each other. If different animals can get along, why can’t humans get along with each other? Why can wild animals accept one another, but humans cannot do the same? Differences might be confusing to some, but should differences not be intriguing? Maybe if we learned the way others live in different cultures, it would broaden our horizons and teach us something new. Many are scared of what they do not know or understand, but if we approach this with an open and accepting mind, maybe we could all get along and live in peace and harmony.

Thank you for visiting my site today. I hope you enjoyed what I shared and you have a wonderful weekend. How do you prefer to spend your Saturday? It is the first day of the weekend, so I hope you spend it doing what brings you the most happiness. No matter how you decide to spend your weekend, remember you do not have to spend the weekend doing anything you do not want to do. People might try to pressure you to do something in your heart you have no interest in, so stand up for yourself and do not allow anyone to pressure you. Please never forget I am always sending y’all LOTS of love, comfort, support, and MANY positive vibes!

Happy Friday! I hope you had a wonderful week! Are you looking forward to the weekend, and do you have anything planned? Did anything exciting happen during the week for you? If anything negative happened to you during the week, how did you deal with it? One thing that seems to happen every month for me is getting my Gilenya for MS to arrive on time. This is not a medication you can take when you want to, as it needs to be taken daily around the same time. It is frustrating, but it is also something I am used to dealing with, and try not to allow this to cause me too much unnecessary stress because that will only make matters worse. It might sound negative, but I have given up on expecting people to do what they are supposed to with their jobs, which causes me to do much more work. It is what it is, and at least I only missed one day of my medication and took it late the second day.

At the end of each week, we must find a way to let go of any negative emotions the week has caused. Everyone should be able to enjoy their weekend as much as possible and not carry anything negative with them. Over the years, I have learned to accept we must let go of things we have no control over and cannot change because trying to change things we cannot change will only cause unnecessary stress. If we want to live our lives the happiest way we can, we must let go of anything holding us down. This could mean people, other issues that have occurred, or anything else that holds us down. We might not be able to fly like the butterflies, but we can live our lives at the highest point, but only when we are not weighed down. Negative influences from friends and family can cause us to feel negative and down, but we can let go of those relationships if it is in our best interest.

Thank you for visiting my site today. I hope you enjoyed what I shared and found the quote helpful in letting go of any negative emotions you are feeling. The weather is still changing frequently and only getting warmer, which causes me many issues with dizziness. Thankfully, I have learned ways to deal with this, but it is still uncomfortable and scary. Whatever you have in mind to do over the weekend, I hope you enjoy yourself and stay safe. I will respond to any comments as quickly as possible! Please never forget I am always sending y’all LOTS of love, comfort, support, and MANY positive vibes!

Thoughts for the week

On April 10th, it was two months since I watched the bright and sparkly light in our precious cat Sundance’s blue eyes fade dark. He fought so hard for weeks until the very end of his life, and his little lungs gave in. During the last two months, we have tried holding onto the happiness and love this furry angel brought into our lives, which has provided us with some comfort but does not mend our broken hearts. In every inch of our home, there is another memory of Sundance. The place in the dining room where he cried five times and the place in the living room where he took his last breath still hurts my heart. When I would walk through our front door or return upstairs from the basement, I still looked for him because he met me at the door, but sadly, he was not there☚. I continue hoping what happened at 6:46 PM on February 10th, has been a long nightmare, and I will wake up to Sundance’s beautiful face. The loss of Sundance will continue to feel like a terrible and endless nightmare until I learn to cope better with the loss.

During the weeks I knew Sundance was gravely ill, I divided my attention between ensuring he was as comfortable and loved as possible and doing well in my classes. Everyone deals with sadness in different ways. Some people may decide to become overly lost in depression. Others cannot handle their emotions, so they repress their emotions and practice avoidance to an unhealthy level. Unfortunately, my way of dealing with challenging and emotional situations is avoidance and repression. I stayed by Sundance’s side for hours and observed him so I could help him move around and obsessed over his breathing and giving him his medications at the same time daily.

When we lost Chloe on February 7, 2020, it was painful because we were hurting but saw Sundance grieve. He was the type who loved everyone and did not understand where his best friend went. This was why we adopted two female cats, which were only supposed to be one, but the girls were sweet and loved each other, and we did not want to separate them. It does not seem the girls are upset and have carried on with their silly antics. The only change I have noticed with the girls is they are not eating their wet food as much as they used to. Maybe they are still adjusting to the loss and change.

One of the outside feral cats I have been feeding was pregnant. Mama cat continues to come around to eat but has not brought the kittens by yet. I am very excited to see her babies when they are ready to be out and about to eat cat food. I have said I want one of her kittens, especially if she has a male, but the more I think about it, I am unsure if I am mentally and emotionally ready. I think it would be better to wait until I can go more than a week without breaking down in tears, be done with school, and have a job. I cannot guarantee our female cats would be happy about another cat, especially the part Maine Coon, Willow. She is loving and sweet but not too friendly towards other animals. She hissed at me for having the scent of another animal on me.

The healing process when you experience a loss takes time. Unfortunately, there is not a guide to teach you how to heal faster. Many people may not understand how painful it has been losing Sundance, but it has hurt my heart and soul. I love all animals and prefer to be surrounded by animals any day of the week because they are easier to get along with and understand. Do I think there will come a day when we will be over losing Sundance? Maybe, but there will always be something that brings up a good and painful memory. Do I think we will get another male cat someday? The jury is still out on that because I do not know. If we do, the kitty will not be able to replace Sundance because that boy is irreplaceable.

Thank you for visiting my site today. I hope you had a wonderful week and are looking forward to a weekend doing what makes you happiest. If you decide to do nothing over the weekend, that is okay because you need to consider yourself! I rarely do anything over the weekend because I prefer to stay home where I know I am safe and can avoid unfriendly humans, and I love being around our sweet cats. As always, I look forward to reading your comments and will respond as quickly as possible. Please never forget I am always sending y’all LOTS of love♥, comfort, support, and MANY positive vibes!

Let It Go Friday

Happy Let It Go Friday! I hope you had a wonderful week, and the weekend is everything you hoped for. The weeks are always the same for me, but I hope they will change soon. I look for jobs daily and do schoolwork. I am looking forward to the next class I will be starting in May, but I know I can work and handle the class at the same time. It is crazy how difficult the job search has been, but I guess there must be a reason it is taking so long. I have chatted online with the instructor from the medical coding class I took in January, which I have enjoyed because I think she is a great person. It helps that I know she loves animals, but I cannot understand anyone if they do not have a love for animals because they are all sweet and innocent😊! It says a lot about someone when you can build a connection with them and never meet them in person.

Stress is challenging enough by itself, but adding another condition like Multiple Sclerosis intensifies both issues to a great extent. First, the two cannot get along well and are more like oil and vinegar than anything else. Stress causes everyone to experience terrible side effects, and I know what stress does to me, living with Multiple Sclerosis. Unfortunately, sometimes, stress is unavoidable and comes out of nowhere. It can be something that someone else seems easy to tolerate, but the same situation for me can be completely different and spiral out of control. I do my best to avoid confrontation because I know what it does to my emotional well-being, so I am thankful my husband and I do not argue, which could be because I will avoid the situation for as long as possible. Typically, there is only one thing I struggle to ignore, but I still try. Of course, one day if the same thing comes up at the wrong time, there is a chance I will erupt with frustration.

Do you think ignoring a frustrating situation is a way to avoid a stressful situation? Logically, I know ignoring something only delays the inevitable, which would be to face the issue. I try to never go to bed angry or in a negative mood, but the other night, I went to bed in a terrible mood and woke up feeling the same way. I am unsure what caused the negative feelings, but they would not dissipate, which was super annoying! I know I cannot hide the way I feel because it is always written all over my face, so I guess I should never try going to Vegas to gamble because my cards would show on the expression on my face. It is so obvious I think even my cats know how I am feeling and what I am thinking.

Everyone deals with stress, but we all cope with it differently. Some people might enjoy getting lost in a good book. Others might find journaling helpful to release stressful feelings. Maybe some need to do something physical to get those emotions to lessen. Yesterday, I loaded the car with several boxes that had been in our dining room for donations. I think there were about eight boxes, some were heavier than others, but I managed to get them all loaded. This activity did help my stress some, but it did, of course, cause my back and legs to hurt. I am used to these types of pain, so it was nothing new, just a little more intense. I do have another task I want to do that will be time-consuming and a great stress reliever. I will organize some of our closets and will create more donation boxes. You could probably call this some mild spring cleaning😊!

Thank you for visiting my site today! I hope you enjoyed what I shared today, and I look forward to reading what you thought. If I have learned anything in this life it is that we must hold onto determination and perseverance because they are the things that will keep us moving forward. I know it is hard, but do not get caught up in the never-ending political nonsense going on in the country because it is crucial to keep things in perspective. There is not much we can do to change the situation, but focusing on this too much can be detrimental and unnecessary. I hope you have a wonderful and relaxing weekend and let go of any negative emotions😬 you have felt during the week, and you can enjoy the weekend as much as possible! Please never forget I am always sending y’all LOTS❤️ of love, comfort, support, and MANY positive vibes!

Good afternoon and another day when Mother Nature forgot to take her meds😉! I realize it is Spring but, the weather continues to change drastically to what appears to be by the minute. Today, there will be a high of around 60 degrees, but next week will range from 50 degrees to almost 80 degrees. Besides how warm it can get, it rains way too much where I live. The city I live in appears to idolize Seattle and tries to be as much like that area of the country as possible, which I do not enjoy. I do not know about anyone else, but the rain causes my pain to intensify. The weekend is not over yet, and several hours remain to do something enjoyable😊! How has your weekend been so far?

I know I mentioned before one of the classes I was taking was over, and I got an A in the class, but I still had two other classes. I am happy to say another class is complete, and once again, I got an A😊! The final class I need to complete is Anatomy & Physiology, and I hope to have it finished with another A in the next couple of weeks! The medical coding class I already finished was not enough to be able to become a certified coder, so I am working on pursuing the class that will enable me to do so! Of course, the class is longer, but I think I could still work (once I get a job) and do the class because I already have the basics down!

Since losing our cat, Sundance, we have missed him daily. There is not a minute that passes during the day when the memories of him do not arise, but I still find myself feeling at fault for his passing♥. I tortured myself after Chloe passed away with the same guilt because I felt I should be able to care for the precious cats and never let anything happen to them. I know I am not God and cannot control or fix everything, but this does weigh on my mind and heart. I will never understand why certain things happen during our lives and why loving animals must be taken away from us. How is it possible they have fulfilled their purpose in the world when they still have people missing and needing them?

Thank you for visiting my site today! I hope you have a lovely and relaxing day! Some days, we need to try putting our needs ahead of anything else because WE matter! Many of us spend our time taking care of others, which can cause us to neglect ourselves. I am very guilty of this, but it has always been in my nature. Today, I am going to attempt to finish another chapter in the A&P class because I am trying to finish it before the other Medical Coding class starts in May or when I finally get a job! I have many goals and I am trying to complete as many as I can! Please never forget I am always sending y’all LOTS of love♥, comfort, support, and MANY positive vibes!

Last Let It Go Friday 2023

Today is the final Friday of the year and is leading to the last weekend of the year. I hope you had a good week and are looking forward to the weekend. No matter what might have gone wrong during the week, today is the day we must let go of negative emotions, and we can enjoy the final weekend in 2023! Anything that was not accomplished during the past week will still be there next year for us to handle, and there is no use wasting your time feeling any distress about it. Letting go of negativity and anger can open your life to many amazing new things, which I did not realize until I did just that😊! All the things we have no control over means it is best to move on and focus on what is controllable. Honestly, there are still a few things that I am working on letting go of, but these issues are for another post!

Letting go of stress and stressful situations is very challenging, but once you do it one time, you will begin to understand the benefits and learn to do it more often. Of course, it takes time and patience, but it is an important lesson to learn and continue to do as much as you need to♥. What good does it do anyone to hold onto stress and stressful times in life? There is no use, and it does nothing good for anyone. Stress has often been viewed as a silent killer, and even though I tend to keep myself under constant stress and it has not killed me yet, it could shorten my life drastically. Over the years, I have gotten better at controlling my stress because I know it is unhealthy and causes additional problems with Multiple Sclerosis, but I have not mastered this art yet♥! I think the truth is that we all have faults that we are constantly working to improve on during our lives.

Now that the week is coming to an end, do you have any plans for the holiday weekend? From what I know at this moment, we do not have any plans for the weekend. My husband works on New Year’s Day, so we will probably take it easy this weekend and might have a mini celebration at home with the two of us and our cats😊! I think we are getting too old to go out to celebrate the New Year, and things get a little too hectic for my taste. I am also still recovering from whatever made me feel so awful for a few days, and I want to ensure that I am 100% so we can go on the snowboard birthday vacation for my husband♥. I prefer not to risk feeling bad during his birthday celebration.

Thank you for stopping by my site today. I hope you enjoyed what I have shared, and I look forward to reading your comments. I will respond to all comments as quickly as I can. I do have a few ideas and things I want to write about and plan to try getting the posts completed soon, but please bear with me because if I start feeling awful again, it might take me a little longer than expected. Please never forget I am always sending y’all LOTS of love♥, comfort, support, and MANY positive vibes!

Happy Friday😊! I hope you have had a good week. I do not mean to sound so cynical and negative, but I have a few questions that I hope someone can answer so that I can understand better. How can people sleep at night after they have been dishonest and outright mean? How can anyone feel good about themselves playing games with scams and another person’s life? How can people set others up for failure and then take away something important to another person? What has happened to the checks and balances in the corporate world when you get praise only to end up losing your job? These are questions that have been running around in my head for the past month and have caused me many sleep disturbances. I do not understand why so many people have become so insensitive and slightly cold. How do you get past issues of corruption and dishonesty when you have encountered numerous scams and cold-hearted people?

After so many disappointments and challenging times, it gets difficult to remain optimistic and maintain a caring heart, but I think this makes many people stand out from the rest of the world. Through all the many challenges we face in life, it is crucial to remember that life goes on, and we cannot allow anything to stand in our way of a successful and happy life. We are in charge of our lives, and no other person can change the path of our lives, the only person that stands in the way is the person we see in the mirror. Should any person have the power to stop us? Absolutely, NOT because we are too strong and determined for this nonsense. We need to never forget that this is our life, and we have the power to make this life be anything we want it to be!

Now that the week is over and the weekend is here, do you have anything planned? The only thing I have planned is hopefully, get my truck back to working. That will be one small problem on my mind, and that will lessen my stress, at least I hope it will! I recently told my mother that if one more person told me to relax and everything would work out with the job issue, I was going to scream so loud she would hear me 1,200 miles away. Logically, I know things will work out, but when people continue to tell me to relax, it makes me more stressed. My husband told me to take this time to work on my blog and other writing I decided to do, but that is easier said than done.

Thank you for stopping by my site today. I hope you had a good week and that you have a wonderful weekend. I hope you enjoyed what I shared today, and it helps you to let go of any negative emotions you have before the short weekend begins. I look forward to reading your comments and as always, I will respond as quickly as I can. Please never forget I am always sending y’all LOTS of love♥, comfort, support, and MANY positive vibes!

Saturday Thoughts

Happy Saturday😊! I think today can be viewed as a special day as it is 11/11. Do you believe in the power of some numbers? When the clock reads 11:11 am or pm, do you make a wish? Some people believe 1111 is an angel number that can carry significant meaning. According to The Law of Attraction, it represents a gateway to spiritual awakening and enlightenment. Honestly, anytime I see the clock read 11:11, I tend to make a wish, but I am unsure if the wishes ever come true, but then again, I believe everything in life happens for a reason and when it is supposed to♥. Of course, others believe this number is an opportunity to connect with your inner self and kick-start something great. The number sequence 1111 is viewed as a message from the spirit guides or a high power, which may mean you are on the right path and may start receiving guidance on your journey through this life.

Today might be the perfect day to connect with your inner self and understand if you are on the path you want to be on in life♥. You do not have to believe there is anything special about the number sequence 1111, but what would it hurt to believe this? There is no reason to change your beliefs or become super spiritual, but it might be a fun and exciting experience. It can never hurt to connect with yourself after you spent the week doing something different, and maybe not what you wanted to do. Today, for a few minutes sit alone, and think about your life. What would you change, and what are things you enjoy about life? I am not asking you to share your answers with anyone else but do this for YOU!

How was your week? My week was not bad, but it was not great either. It was a long week, and I am thankful to have a relaxing weekend to recuperate. I have a few posts I have not been able to complete, and I hope to finish at least one of them this weekend. When I have a lot on my mind, the only way I can release my feelings is to write. As you can imagine, I have many half-written things and need to focus on them♥. How are you handling the time change? I know this was over a week ago, but this is affecting many people. I am unsure if it is affecting me negatively or not because I still get up at the same time as I did before the time change. I do not think the constant changes in the weather are helping me at all. One day is cold, and the next is HOT again.

Thank you for stopping by my site today. I hope you enjoyed what I have shared, and you have a wonderful weekend! We waited long enough for the weekend to return, which felt like a long time, so I hope you can enjoy every minute of it♥! When did the weeks become so long? I cannot remember them being this long before, but they are way too long now. It does not help that our weekends seem to be getting shorter. I look forward to reading your comments, as I always enjoy them. I will respond to all comments as quickly as I can. Please never forget I am always sending y’all LOTS of love♥, comfort, support, and MANY positive vibes!
