In Progress: Daily and Monthly Challenges, Weeks 6 & 7

 Yes, I missed updating last week.  It was a very busy week where I didn't get nearly as much done as I wanted to. But I was able to keep up with several things that I had on my list.  Here's the usual rundown. I read a lot of graphic novels over the last couple of weeks.  I'm up to 37 books so far.  I finished Locke & Key , books 4 ( Keys to the Kingdom), 5 (Clockworks)  and 6 ( Alpha and Omega ), along with the side books Heaven and Earth, Small World, and Open the Moon .  I also read some individual issues.  For one of my graphic novel book clubs, I had to read Destroyer by Victor LaVelle.  The problem was that my library didn't have the trade paperback for it.  So instead, I read each one individually.  It was an excellent series, and I think I'm going to have to check out more of his writing.  I also finished At 30, I Realized I Had No Gender: Life Lessons from a 50-Year-Old After Two Decades of Self-Discovery . I am c...

It's Becoming Real

2025 is turning out to be an interesting year for me so far.  Things with the sale of the house are going along nicely.  We should still be on track for having the closing on the 30th (I hope).  I'm becoming more and more ok with the thought of letting the house and everything in it go, which is what's telling me that this is the right call.  I just have to let other members of the family know that this is happening. I'm also making Sunday Assembly progress.  I'm (mostly) ready for this month's assembly.  We had to move it from last Sunday to this upcoming Sunday because of the bad weather we had.  It's given me a little more time to practice my vocal parts and do at least one read through of my "Trying My Best".  Next month, I'll be hosting and I'm making progress there too.  I've got the theme, Rich will be doing the talk, and I've picked out the reading.  I just need to find someone to do the reading and someone for "Trying My B...

Writing: Self-Discovery Deck, Prompt #3

  To what extent are you able to be vulnerable with your emotions? For anyone that knows me, this prompt is almost laughable.  Not because I'm not ever vulnerable with my emotions but because I'm always  vulnerable with my emotions. I wear my heart on my sleeve. When I'm upset, it's easy to see (even if I'm trying to hide it).  When I'm happy, I spread joy around.  When I care for someone, I am very physical with my love. When I'm hurt, I try to let the one who hurt me know and know why. Sometimes, this backfires on me.  I've been told by many, many people over the years that I'm just too much.  That they need to step back from me because my emotions are so intense.  So I try to moderate my emotions.  Not having them, because they are just as valid as anyone else's.  But in how I display them.  Especially when it comes to being upset or hurt, I try to take time to think myself through them to see if I have a reason to be upset or if...
