Potential resurgence…

 Considering I’ve been at one of the lowest points in my life in the last few weeks, I thought that blogging would be a decent and much needed distraction. I’ve talked about my anxiety numerous times here, so there no need to go over it again. I’ve always attributed every bad thing happening to me or my animals to be due to my blogging or posting on social media. 

Crazy, right?

Anxiety does some very strange things to your mind. I think the only thing that keeps me sane is the fact that I acknowledge how crazy or insane things sound. I know where to draw the line, for the most part. However, that doesn’t keep my mind from taking something minuscule and absolutely running a marathon with it. 

My sister and I lost our precious 16 year old angel, Una, on the 25th of last month and I swear to God it’s almost killed me. After Milla and Zoe passed in 2018, I clung to Una even harder. She was part of my soul and with me in every aspect of my life. The only time we were apart was when I was a work. 

I’m still not okay and I don’t know that I ever will be. 

I can’t talk about it, so I’m going to stop there and will most likely never bring it up again because it hurts too much and makes me want to cry. I already cry daily… numerous times usually.

With that being said, I think blogging would be a nice outlet for me. I feel like I have no drive to take pictures anymore, so maybe this will help spark one of my absolute favorite things in the world. 

Don’t hold your breath, cause I won’t. 

Maybe I’ll pop in tomorrow or some day soon with a little recap of my life from the last… idk, 18 months? 20? It was around March of 2023 when I posted last. So there’s that. Hope everyone is doing well, until next time…



It can happen in a instance...

I guess I'll go ahead and start with the bad part of today. Actually it's worse than bad, it's terrible. My cousin, Brandi Pratt, passed away in a car accident this morning. Apparently her neck was snapped on impact and she was DOA at the hospital. She was a passenger in the car her half-sister was driving. She was on her way to the dentist, do something as normal as getting gas.

It's amazing how fast your life can be taken from you. You don't see it coming, you won't see it coming. It'll happen when you least expect it. She was in Jackson, MO driving on a road that I've driven on several times over the past year -- it could have been us.

Brandi and I used to spend a lot of time together when we were younger. Mostly summers at my aunt's house in middle of nowhere Fredericktown. I haven't spoken to her much over the last 15 years, so saying we weren't close is and understatement. Still, she was family and I loved her dearly.

I can't even begin to imagine what her mom and sisters are going through. Whether you pray, send good thoughts, think about, or meditate, please do it for my family -- especially her mother and sisters.

The rest of what I have to say seems obsolete now.

It was a very weird/random day today. LaVaughn and I did tent time with Declan, Ellie, and the two new girls, Saoirse and Ever.  Ellie was 100% in her element -- Declan, on the other hand, was a big coward and hid in my arms the entire time. Ever just hung out on the tent wall eating yoggies the majority of the day, while her sister, Saoirse, did the complete opposite. She was basically a wild woman that ran rampant in the tent!

Unfortunately no one got along, so back to their cages they went. We swapped pouches, so hopefully next time will be slightly better. I don't really have much else to say, so I suppose I'll leave it at that. Until next time...

Love & Peace

The worst thing ever...

Hey. I just wanted to let everyone know why I haven't been blogging lately. One of the most important people in my life passed away July 10th, my grandma. I've feared this day all of my life. I never thought this day would come. It's the worst thing I've ever had to deal with so far. I've never missed anyone as much as I miss her. She will never be forgotten for as long as I live.

-Megan

P.S.
I probably wont be blogging anytime soon. It's still really hard to do anything that I used to do. It makes me too sad. I'm sure in time, I'll want to blog. Just not now...
