Books n Life

 Books I'm reading and have read past couple months: 

Reading: the silk roads by Peter frankopan

Just started. Need to read something about history to understand what's going on today. It's really confusing the world we live in

From trauma to transformation : a path to healing and growth Debra Laaser

Love this book. Really feel like she's talking about me. But she's talking about herself


Read a while back 

The Book Woman of Troublesome Creek by Kim Michele Richardson

Ok book. Very interesting history of the blue ppl of Kentucky. Couldn't get into the sequel much. 


Goodnight Nobody by Jennifer Weiner

All I can say is meh. 


The Orphan Collector: A Heroic Novel of Survival During the 1918 Influenza Pandemic by Ellen Marie Wiseman

Loved it!! Great History and wonderful and very sad but the journey is well worth it


Before and Ever Since by Sharla Lovelace

Actually really liked it considering the dilemma I was going through exactly at that time. 




I used to read a book a week cause that's all I cared about. Now it's so hard with motherhood and stress and just dealing with day to day chores. Even when I have time it's like ugh, I need to breathe first. Or close my eyes first. Which turns into a 4 hour nap since I woke up so early just to do the things I can't do otherwise. Quiet things to quiet the mind. 

On the bright side, working out has been good. I'm being told I look fit now. Which I don't think I was before but I dropped weight before. Now the scale isn't moving but my figure is better and my strength and endurance improved. Still not sure exactly what I need to do to improve my specific body type. Oh well probably will just drink more water some the clean eating is going ok. 

I think main problem is sleep just cause I don't feel like my mind is resting even when I'm sleeping. I'm sure that's been on going for some time and now it's just a regular thing.


Welp that's about it for now, once I get into more shenanigans will update. 

Peace.

To understand me solely poem

To understand me solely Would make me oh so lonely I understand that now It's a way too proud way to be  To understand the world Without knowing where i'm heading Is way too doormatty and will  Pose a risk to my self esteem So do that no more, just cower at the door Think, do i wanna be in charge Or do i wanna charge for this All of this pity that walks among me And savor the bite of the sweetest pie That made it to my table this july Walked along the sun and smile Rise above the waves and glide Wonder only about what is in the future And not about how the past can haunt Plan out everything in advance And throw away papers for adventure For, these plans for life do not pin well To the wall of failures that are soon to show For maps of trails that lead to nowhere That we never even took a step towards But here we are in a place we know not of And need to discover once more Cause i'm not 20 anymore  And i don't know things i once did And i forgot things that i once hid An...

3 new poems for december

  12.9.24 Wondering what could be  If i could see unbelieve What i always have believed And what would happen to empathy But it was gone once numbness came And in the brain shot all the flames Winter came and never left I was hoping for the best But hoping ran away and i remained a shadow And i contained a smile That now turned into frown  Mellow and collided with my heart of black Finding all i tried and never get on track Trying to combine my empathy i lack Well here it is again, i'm never coming back Trying to portray it like it was always near Holding dear to heart even though it pains me so What to do with all this rummage that i can’t step over What to do with consciousness that was one life over That belongs so long ago and has no shape here I can’t fit my thoughts into living without fear Wait i never did and so forgive myself i should But breaking up my formation is a trying task That i couldn't possibly accomplish without a full  Deconstruction of the brain...

heres to the mamas

  Here’s to the mamas with the babies at home Sitting alone while the world spins on a dome Ringing alarms while no one hears Only voice you could hear is your babys in ur ear It gets tiring sometimes but you get through Looking at her smile know its up to you To look at her and smile to live in denial To retract to your old self when you didnt know the world Cause theres a little girl with her life ahead No way does she need to lead the life you led No way does she have to get empty promises Heres to all the nights that you miss But you really dont, do you? Youre really happy Hallelujah, you finally made it, made her, made the world Look in her eyes and see all of happiness In one little person cant ask for something less Cause something more you can adore for the rest of ur life You created ur best friend shes here by your side Cooing and rocking and being a star You dont even know how special you are Baby girl, youre adored by anyone who sees you But youre mine and your daddys a...
