It will NOT stop raining – it just pours the boring rain… but we have flooding everywhere!! We are water logged already!! Rivers are rising fast!
That forecast is from last night – I am in the foothills areas with the massive rain 🌧️ 😮
Omg just constant rain patter!
So much water!!
Ok so… ugh so much … I never know where to start?!
So military has been taking me to dinner and meeting people … which is fine…
I am seeing and getting to know who he is as person – I like him… he makes me laugh and he’s very proactive lol … but he is go go go all the time
And sometimes he says things that ?? I don’t know?
Ok first things first… I do enjoy being around him, he is awesome and still very romantic and heartfelt. Sorta
Yes he is romantic and full of life… he is heartfelt cause we will talk and he has emotions.
But I feel that if you love someone – you love them as they are… period.
I mention to him that I have been through alot… and my job is very heavy… I work hard and am proud of self. Is not easy… I pour all my energy into my kids and work.
I tell him I am probably boring and I am quiet and low key… just quiet
And when I said that to him – he said, well I’m hoping to fix that for you
Ok wait. Cause what if I like that? What if I need that. what if I want that?
I’m not too sure about too much life ?? I do not know how much I can handle? Or want to?
I have life – but I also have death … and with everything been through I am tired so … I want to love life peacefully ?
And I accept someone as is… who they are ? I don’t think about what I can fix or change ?
Also… he has not seen my world… I only see his to know who he is… but he has not seen my world.
I am very different.
My people are unique as well ❤️❤️ … all the women are very beautiful ❤️ and we all have really hilarious personalities lol ❤️ … some are bulldogs … some are quiet like me… some are spooky lol … they are all amazing … they all very different ❤️
Make me laugh and smile daily ❤️ … where I have fit … they have heart ❤️ … you have to for the job
Anyway – I am going to need to heal and be at my own pace with my own things.
I am not going to be able to handle pressure from personal life … I love to enjoy life moments in general and then once in awhile – usually in spring and summer – I like to do fun things lol
Not so much in winter, but I am doing things to see who he is- I’ve giving my time – I don’t mind hanging watching tv or talking over dinner and all that… I like that… but I am not a go out all the time person at all!! 😮 not in slightest!
I have brought up my peace and quietness several times … my personality is full of life wonder … but my world is peaceful
Also… I am quiet and listen to his stories and how his life is… I don’t speak of mine much – here and there about my family but very vaguely with bad stuff
Ya know… it’s gonna be too much. So why revisit? I have my life nice and peaceful and somewhat balanced.
I can not do if you think you can fix or change me ? I can not do if I think you will crush my spirit or not let me be me?
Yesterday… one of my people had a phone call from someone … who was upset about a car in the parking lot … because this vehicle had a bumper sticker that said “my body, my choice”
Ok well we all have freedom of speech and hello this is America 🇺🇸?? Are we not land of the free?
Well they were offended by the bumper sticker on the car … ok well is not a violation
But they said if they had seen that they would not have chosen us.
Ok but again they have freedom of speech and we are open to all… no matter beliefs or personal opinions
Anyway… in same terms I do not want to be told how I should be or what I can do.
So I am cautiously watching…
We see how he does with my people 😮
Ugh and that’s another thing … I am doing a lot of things … but I do miss the downtime peace for my soul.
My boss wanna come out tonight and might stay over … plus him… plus my kids.. plus 2 other couples – omg so many people and we flooding – I don’t know whats happening … shit show? 😮😮 lord help me lol
I kinda yearn for the peace and quiet in the living room with Doby and kids ❤️
I am not a go out person 🤷♀️
But I can for little while just not all the time.
So I don’t know if he thinks I am someone I am not… I don’t mind melting together but I can’t just not be who am and I am not sure what I can actually handle ??
I can’t be go go go… so that will never happen. I am not gonna kill myself … so no.
I do not like having to be “on” all the time. I like being boring and having peace
I will do stuff but just I need time to melt into someone and I can’t just melt into their world… I have a world too.
So if he is truly heartfelt and does like how he says he does … I am either going to be a love or a lesson 😮
So we see
Omg 2023 gonna kill me 🤦♀️
I do not fit into a mold nor will I be ok conforming into something I am not or being told how I need to be … sorry no ✌️
Ok well Happy New Years Eve!!! 😮 I probably be back next year lol 😘✌️ – god willing 🙏
It’s almost New Year here. I wish you and your family a Happy New Year. Much happiness. 🙏🏽🎉

Maybe the Military is excited, but is he listening to you or just hearing the parts he wants to? Why does he want to fix you? Because he thinks you are broken and he is the knight in shining armour on a white steed?
Mm, he wants to make you just right for his world. I am sorry if that reads harsh, Trisha. It reminds me of a woman l had in my life once. We were together as a couple from 2007 – 2009, and she destroyed my life for many years after we split, after which l stopped trusting people.
I liked her company, but she wanted to change my life to be like hers, so we would go out and intermingle and x, y and z. I tried it for a while, but she was always all go. We split up. She wanted me to be like her and didn’t want me to be me.
My partner didn’t like my world and told me she could fix mine to be more … enriching. I already lived busy with my business, but l wasn’t an all-night partier like her. I asked what was wrong with my life that she should think l needed more. “Well, everyone needs more”, was the answer. I liked a quieter life. My younger life had been all go, and as l aged, l found that l wanted life to be a little slower in sociality.
Even today, if the social gets too much, l back off and change my style.

No worries – appreciate the harshness!
That’s ok … that’s something you can’t change with me which is why I keep stating things – making sure he understand what he messing with
He thinks I have things I need healing from and with – and I do … and they are pretty severe so… he wants to help me but I just want to take as I am able. So he’s just gonna have to deal with that.
I made sure to say many times how different I am
Plus ya know … I am very stubborn so I won’t listen if goes that way… he will never be able to get me to conform to something I am not
Don’t worry, I don’t put up with bullshit – so far has not had any – sometimes misunderstandings
I think he nervous in those moments with me because I am quiet lol
But we do talk it out and I do mention several times everything I think is a concern or needs clarity
Don’t worry – I am on it 😊 cause if can not handle, and do not like, or think can own? Then there is door cause no
I am same as you sorta … I do have a firey-ness and do not care how people want to judge… do not change your style…
I back away from world sometimes … but
I would never change style or knowing who am now … don’t like it, then bye 👋
He mean more so to be there for me while I handle these issues I do not currently handle …which I can not handle at this time – I don’t tell him cause I can’t but he knows is something
We see with that. He says stuff wrong sometimes but he will clarify if I ask lol
He was nervous around me for little while lol – didn’t wanna say wrong thing but then sometimes would lol
But is ok – I just ask questions and we talk
I am cautious
I feel comfortable with him … it wasn’t meant like it came out
I will be very careful!! Yes! 😳
I am sad that you change your style
I never change mine – I just be like … meh fuck it – this is me… enjoy life with me or don’t 🤷♀️
Ok I need bed – good night 😴

Oh yes, these are very fine observations Trisha. a good bit of power and run time – so a healthy dose of stamina is an essential ingredient to be able to give a good blow….around the garden.
I have always found that when handling a good blower, there is quite a lot of satisfaction to feeling that engine getting hot and that lovely moment when it goes full throttle, ah quite the sensation to have a busy blower throbbing between your hands!
A good model that does the job well makes everything so much smoother 🙂
I might even write an article on the benefits of a gardener having a good blower 🙂

I am a very fond supporter of tending the bushes, although one bush at a time, l am getting a bit older now so taking on too much bush is harder. I don’t like beating around the bush like some do, but taking my time 🙂

Yes of course you could just go for a bushless path, certainly cuts down on unnrcessary mowings 🙂
Bushless is much smoother than bushy and over bushier 🙂
