Communication is a must!!

So, Ive been doing some thinking and what my last few friendships were lacking was communication.

With friend M-we were really close and while we talked about a lot of stuff, there was still a lot we didn't talk about. One thing we didnt talk about was how my feelings for him were growing and then finally I told him and found out he didn't feel the same way and luckily it didn't change things between us.
He moved for college and we tried to keep the friendship going..and for awhile it worked...then I was tired of not hearing from him and deleted and blocked him and that was it. Looking back, I could of found out what was going on, but then, he could of too. Not once after did he text or call to see why I stopped talking to him...

That was 3 years ago or so and I think of him from time to time and then I don't...So I guess I'm moving on or already did move on without realizing it.

With J- I don't know what cwe had, but I was crushing on him and he knew and I told him how I felt and he replied to the email and said nothing...we would talk on the phone and text and every time I mentioned how I felt or even doing lunch, we never did anything or talked about anything even close to our feelings...well, we used to do a story and communicate through the story, and then one day, it stopped and then he got creepy..

He would go awhile and not text me, and then be all concerned about me and yet never offer anything other than a one word answer to what i asked him and so yeah. It got to the point where I stopped talking to him via text and when he wasn't getting the attention from me, he stopped texting and that was a few years ago since i had heard from him.

I saw him on Facebook one day and blocked him so he wouldn't think of adding me and even though i think about him sometimes, i have no desire to talk to him. 

It has been awhile and looking back, what I'm realizing is that the next friends I have etc, the better the communication and to be able to talk about how we feel and hang out and not hide behind a story.

This time of year broadcast TV is filled with Christmas movies. What is your favorite Christmas movie? I have too many to list! 5. Does your place of work do a gift exchange or secret santa?

Muggie Maggie-A rant

Muggie Maggie- a book where everyone is obsessed with a 3rd grader who refuses to write cursive and is treated like crap by everyone; her parents, her father's secretary and her teacher. Things that bugged me about this book- 1. Unless she is willing to write cursive and go along with her parents, they say she is contrary and misbehaves!- uh no.. The outrage over her not wanting to write cursive bugged me. Its like the world will come to and end if she won't do it. 2. Her father's secretary sucks- she sends Maggie a ball point pen and Maggie writes her a thank you letter back. Good enough, right? WRONG! The secretary sends a sarcastic note back that makes maggie cry because one word is misspelled- luckily her dad is sort of sympathetic, but not by much. 3. Her teacher spends her time sending her out of the room with messages to other teachers so she will learn cursive and lo and behold, she does.. This part was actually cool.. After the 2nd day or so of bringing messag...

Welcome 2019! 1. Daily rituals. Do you have any that you will abandon in the new year? Will you begin new daily rituals? If yes, what? The only thing I'll abandon is not taking the time to pick up when i get home and one thing i want to add is taking the time to journal. Even on my phone in the morning, before i start work. I also want to start a daily dance workout.💐 2. What significant relationship improved the most? Probably the ones with my mom and brother.- not to mention our landlord.  3. What relationship in your life deteriorated? The one with my sister in law 4. What do you wish you had done more of in 2018? How do you plan on doing more of that in 2019? I wish i had journaled more and made more time to chill when i get home and also kept up with the dance routine i wanted to do. In 2019 I am going to start putting music on either in the morning and dancing or when i get home at night.  5. What important person in your life needs more of your time? W...
