Post-Political Rant

Whew.  Yeah, so I spent a bit of time on my other blogs with the last being a raging political rant.  It happens, especially right now in the heat of the debates and such.  This is a really critical time for us here in the USA.  Not that any other election in history wasn't important, it's just that the person coming into office this time around has to clean up Obama's mess, and what a freaking mess it is too.

While I'm not going to focus on politics here (did enough of that in the other blogs), I will say that I don't believe too many Americans actually GET just how much everything BHO is doing NOW, and what he will continue doing over the course of his time left as POTUS.. is going to directly affect each and every person, and it's NOT going to be good.

Stepping away from politics...

Right now I'm simply assessing things, as I do each and every day, weighing and comparing and contrasting everything that's going on in my life and how I can affect change without tipping the scales too far to one side.  This is a daily thing for me, as you guys may have already guessed. ;)  Overall, it's a good thing that I continue to persevere on all fronts, but I need to redirect my focus onto something solid and substantial with regards to what action I need to take right this very day.  What can I do TODAY to better my life and put me on a path that's more 'me' in nature?  Burning question of the day, my friends.

What I'm doing....

Reading.  Watching videos.  Learning from others who deal with AIH, weird relationships, and damage from past relationships, etc.  Acquiring insight on how others cope.  It's a good start, isn't it?  I believe so.

Pushing myself towards my art again, though I'm not convinced this is an effective message.  I don't believe any art reveals itself under forceful circumstances, but I do believe surrounding myself with the tools necessary to pick up and carry on will definitely help.  So this is what I've taken on over the past couple of weeks, getting a few supplies together to restart my OOAK dolls again.  I'm also making custom sock monkeys to augment and expand this artistic need I have, looking forward to the photography of the Little Weirdos in the making...

Well.  Dammit.  Here comes that wretched nausea again....

Seriously?  Ugh.  Ok.  Guess I'll end this entry here and hope for the best.  Time to sit back, relax, and scour youtube for more enlightenment...

Til next time....

So much for strong suggestions
