FINALLY!
You know, it has been a grueling 5 years. Pandemic, issues, weight gain, financial…
You name it. I have not written in a while as you know, so I am here to tell you that for the first time since…okay even before 2018…I am in a good place.
My weight loss has been constant. I think I am down 160, but also keep in mind I was close to 500 pounds. But it does not matter, I am moving like crazy, Things do not take as long as they did. I do not get tired instantly. I can walk and keep up with people. And small things are coming back. Like today I could see the bottom of my foot. Sounds weird, but I could not tell you the last time I have done that.
Kids are doing well. School starts this week for them. I think we need a few more supplies, but who doesn’t really. Yes, Florida schools start early. But also end early. I kind of like it better than starting after Labor Day.
My son’s focus is academics and baseball and my daughter’s is academics and music. I will help them in any way possible.
And I have finally made the decision to sell sports cards and write full time. I will not be doing art. My main sources of income are Substack and Ebay. So with that, you can expect some newer posts. Some personal ones will be behind a paywall. I am sure you are aware there is a paid feature since I remind you 5 billion times in every post. Oh, and Ko-Fi. The tip as well. I could start an OnlyFans where I just yell at people. But I digress. Will stick with the two sources I mentioned above.
I have not been heavy in politics. I just do not need to give people the analytics on Twitter by swearing at them. I do hope Donald Trump gets punished like he should and I do think politicians coming out to chastise him when there were afraid to before are weak, but that is about it. My stress level has gone way down since I turned off CNN and MSNBC. It is easier to read the news and make my thoughts from there.
And for the first time in a long time, I feel like a person. My dignity and self esteem was taken from me by a couple of horrible people a few years ago. It has taken me years to work it, and with the help of an amazing person along with the constant words from you all, I am there. And I cannot be any happier.
That is all for now. Just a quick update to let you all know. Oh, and Twitter or X…using it to promote Ebay more than anything. Threads will be more for politics.
See you all soon! And Paid subscription but me a coffee blah blah blah.
