Oh, to be out and about

"I have become a hermit of sorts, one of those middle-aged women who live their lives at arm's length. I rarely leave my condo; there's no need. Everything can be delivered, and really, I don't know what to do with myself in the world these days." Fly Away (Firefly Lane), Kristin Hannah When I was diagnosed with anxiety and depression, I was also diagnosed with agoraphobia. When I heard the psychiatrist mention it, I was actually surprised, although in retrospect, I guess it makes sense. After all, when I was having non-stop panic attacks, I didn't want to go anywhere, afraid that I would suddenly lose it in the middle of a busy mall or while crossing the street (and to be fair, it did happen several times). And up until now I still get anxious when I need to step out of the house alone, even if it's only to walk around the block. (There was one weekend when T asked me if we were stepping out. I replied, "I'm not even sure if I can step out of...

Blessed Samhain

The three of us decided to have our own columns as space-fillers haha, so of course I wrote about what I knew best - the books I read. J came up with ways to save money and K wrote about leadership tips and I love how we were able to work together to come up with something we were quite proud of. I've also started a book journal for 2023 and I guess I'll write a longer review of these three books, along with the other books I read in January. The most pleasant surprise I got was The Great Gatsby , a book I had been putting off reading, which was weird since, one, I love the 20s and the Gilded Age (the era, not the series which I haven...
