Ponderings

I started blogging on steemit with no clear goal, mostly out of pressure to do something, anything, I could to pull in even a small amount of money. That way my husband would stop pestering me about needing a job. He'd be less angry, less stressed, and perhaps things could go back to the way they are supposed to be.

Well, I have a part-time job as a barista, which I thoroughly enjoy. I'm almost through the lingering effects of my seasonal mental health issues, focusing on my writing, and my husband is still a jackass.

Okay, fine. Ignoring everything won't solve anything.

So I guess this is me starting again, declaring myself as being present and taking up space, and deserving to. I lost a lot of myself quite a while ago, early in this relationship. I've been refinding myself, but there's still some growing pains to go through.

So that's what this blog is going to be.

This is for me to get used to my voice again. To talk about whatever I damn well please, and to help solidify the foundation for my life I am ever so slowly building.

So expect a lot of martial arts talk, animal talk, nature talk, cooking talk, rants, positivity, and some negativity.

And the occasional venture into the dark and macabre, because I am that kind of person.

I have some things to mull over, but hopefully I can travel out of state this year. I'm debating between Seattle, San Francisco, or San Diego.

So yeah. I'll work to get at least two posts up a week, at an absolute minimum. I figure that's reasonable with everything else on my plate right now.

And welcome to my little corner.
