Day 282: Monday October 9, 2023 - "Ruthlessly Seeking Routine"

September bumbled us off balance a bit but we have shifted into a new evolved gear here in October as we start to build what can be some routine off the Monday eve to Thursday eve work schedule. For all William knows, this is all perfectly normal - but he's definitely enjoying the shift too, spending all weekend clingy to his mama, filling up on her, knowing soon she'd be going back to work; they get a lot more time together with this shift and I remind myself, that this is what is most important. Time for me to grow my plate again, and get into the grit of the primary parent during the week - this is by far the best way for us to go if we're going to make this lifestyle work long term - a question thats been very front of mind for us during this tough season, while they hope for a new contract.

It was so nice tonight though that Audrie's commute flight was a little bit later, so we got normal dinner together before we old schooled it and drove Mama to the airport, leaving her right at the door under a pink sunsetty sky - it was a beautiful drive home, making it all a worthwhile excuse to get out of the house and be helpful. And its nice for William too who likes to see the Air Force base and the Pima Air Museum from his car seat on the way, and then the special treat of seeing Mama off right at the airport - he totally gets that she gets on the big blue airplane to go to work from there (though now he's convinced shes always in San Francisco). We say goodbye and give her big kisses and hugs and say that we will see her later this week. I tell her to make sure she wears her seatbelt as she hands that baby bum over to me. William doesn't fuss. All perfectly ok and normal for him. We get in the car and as he drives away he lets me know he would like a popscicle - as if he knows how helpful it is to not have meltdowns when mama goes.... how much that helps me. "What color?" I ask. Back at home I'll take some time and plan out the week, making sure to be intentional with this important time I have with my son. Reminders to facetime, baseball in a playground, trip to costco, what to have for dinner. How to keep things moving and positive and good in these few days that Audrie is gone - hoping that in some way makes that time go by a little faster.

Song: Dave Matthews - So Damn Lucky

Quote: "For nothing is fixed, forever and forever and forever, it is not fixed; the earth is always shifting, the light is always changing, the sea does not cease to grind down rock. Generations do not cease to be born, and we are responsible to them because we are the only witnesses they have. The sea rises, the light fails, lovers cling to each other, and children cling to us. The moment we cease to hold each other, the sea engulfs us and the light goes out." ~James Baldwin

[xpiester333x]

😬😩Pfft- (keychain person) That is exactly the two thoughts that run through my head. Lately I've been on the second one. I dont buy myself a lot of things but been changing a bit saying its ok. a bit. Just once in a while or if its a bit more rare or something. But basically powering through saying I'll make it back by working and so long as I have for the important things. and also giving it a cool down. But its like you said when I go on a small spree I wonder if Im out of control. Lol. Its fine talking it through helps too. Having no money sucks Lol. But you know gonna be an endless cycle.

Im on your side either way! Lol. Wouldn't it be nice tho to just have spendable money and not have to give a fuck about treating yourself now and then??

But I think as long as your bills are getting paid, it's okay to splurge sometimes.

Also this is a little morbid, but lately I've been asking myself "what I die tomorrow?" Both for little splurges and when I think I should be doing something and making myself feel guilty for it. Like "If I died tomorrow would I regret not going to this event?" Or "if I died tomorrow, could I say buying this thing made me a little happier in life?'

It's kinda dark but oddly it sometimes helps. Cause sometimes the answer is "no, I don't think it would matter." And I know I can pass on it. But if the answer is "Yeah, actually." Then I feel less bad for whatever it is. 😅

(Also sorry for the late reply. My family and I went on a nature retreat this weekend and our cabin had 0 cell or internet service.)

𝐃𝐚𝐢𝐥𝐲 𝐘𝐮𝐫𝐚 - October Recap

Hello hello my angels! Happy Monday! How has the week started for you, hm? How did the weekend treat you! Did you manage to rest? Did anything exciting? Mine was just a lil chill weekend, getting over halloween, getting ready for the new month~ My least favorite part of holidays is definitely having to put things away again, been focusing in getting my house back to normal this last week. Have you put away your decorations already?

I must say Monday has had quite of a rough start for me, but thats alright! Not every day can be flowers and rainbows now, can they? Now something that does make my days better is looking back at good things! And since I had promised a little October recap I guessed now would be as good as ever to do so! Shall we get started? These are some of the most memorable moments from October. (^_^)

First of all, 𝐏𝐨𝐩𝐬𝐲𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐬𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐬 release! There were a thousand things going on during October, and technically the eye glitter dropped late September, but the most exciting thing of all is by far how successful the launch has been! I'm so so so super stoked about this! As you can see, this far we've launched the eye glitter, two eyeshadow pallettes (warm & cool!), and a small line of eyeliner pens. Starting new things its always so scary and I was TERRIFIED really of how the business would go, but thanks to all the support from you and my friends the experience has been nothing but positive! So thank you! And please support me on this new journey. ♡

Food! Food food food!!! I've had SO much food the last month alone LMAO Truth is even if I didn't get to share with you guys a lot of the things I did, I've been cooking a hell lot! I'll never be able to catch up with it in time but I'll make sure to share with you the list of recipes I've been going through for the season once I'm done with it! I've also been eating out tons lately, especially during busy schedules -like shooting for Min or Popsy- I don't always have the time to go home and make something for myself, so I've been checking out small cafes around and honestly, been having a great time doing it!

Halloween time! Not necessarily Halloween Night itself but just- You know when a certain time comes around and your entire energy changes? October certainly does that to me! The change in weather, on scenery, the Halloween vibes, horror marathons on TV, kids running around so happy, everything's just so nice and I love it lots! I dont really go out at night a lot, but I do enjoy sitting on my front yard and just feeling the night, hm? I rarely go on walks, but thats really nice too, so I've done that a few times during October too.

Last but never least, outfits! Now there's not much for me to say about these other than they're memorable. The reasons why? The stories behind of course! These are some of my favorite, not just because I look good (>v<) but because of the things they remind me of, you know? I think a good story should always be behind a good outfit! I do hope I can get some more season oriented fits this month around though- Now that the cozy clothes are finally out!

Ah, OK, I won't do this any longer! I'm definitely going to keep sharing memories here and there, those I couldn't fit here and any other really that I'd like to share! I'll get going now though! Need to get started with dinner~.

Do you have any memorable moments from October to share? I'd love to hear them!

I hope the week had a smooth start for you and if it didn't, don't worry! That's completely fine, you'll see things get better! I love you all! Please take care, alright?

I'll see you around, my loves! -Yura ♡

5:30

It's 64 degrees outside in the middle of February. The Virginia weather really doesn't know what it wants to do. A few days ago we had freezing rain.

Maybe the kids and I will go for a walk today, that would be nice.

I actually slept ok last night. I had a dream I spilled all my weed.

I'm not looking forward to today, I gotta break my pills in half so I don't run out and I didn't take extra this month I'm sure the pharmacy fucked up but there's nothing I can I do. So I'll just ration my pills and hopefully not suffer to badly. I'm going to count them before I leave the pharmacy next time.

I am glad its a Friday and soon we'll be getting a break from school stuff. Unfortunately there's a lot of chores to catch up on this weekend. So it won't exactly be a rest period which I desperately need.

I just need a break from stress and chores it's been a lot lately and I'm having trouble coping in a healthy way. I find myself sleeping more during the day than I had been. I do that and the chores pile up even more and I can't ever catch up.

Enough being negative though. I'm going to try my best today, to be a good wife and mother, but also to treat myself well. I need to teach and cook and clean and rest and everything will be fine.

[princesscatstronaut]

at the office but need something to hug

at the office. its nice to have a clean desk. although someone took/disposed of the amazon box I was using as a laptop riser which is a bummer. I still have a nice big second monitor though, so its ok. I had tea (raspberry hibiscus) and lunch (easy mac) and I guess I need to get to work now, so I'll have something to show for lab meeting in 2 hours. I started the day with resetting all of my autopay stuff since my old account got hacked. I hope I got everything. all of the alerts about things trying to pull from the old account are getting old. I think I got them all.

I wish I had a stuffed animal to hug. I think in my next trip to the office I'll bring one. maybe the sea bunny. or the llama. either way it would be nice to have something when I'm coding bc sometimes its scary and I need to soothe child-me from the fear of being completely wrong.

I really just don't want to do anything. I had to email old-boss to tell him that the draft won't be ready, and had to email the dept admin too, since she asked. and those are not fun emails to write. old-boss doesn't seem to care, which is fine. but I feel like garbage bc I feel like everyone is saying "why aren't you done yet?" but like, you try working on something that gives you panic attacks while also working 40 hrs a week in a slightly different field where you have to learn new things all the time. like its not easy. I'm not having fun. well on the weekends I do, bc that's when I get to play video games and not feel bad about it. I still play during the week (bc stardew valley) but I feel much more shitty about myself then.

I got a lot of positive feedback about my work over the thanksgiving break and it was so nice. I wasn't even trying that hard. there's so much I could do with my time and instead I listen to Ethersea again and play stardew valley. at least I haven't started a new stardew valley game, that tends to be the indication that I'm not ok. this was just continuing the one I have going.

in Ethersea, Devo/Travis' voice breaks my heart. his character is someone who was raised by people who constantly manipulated him and so he is constantly attacking others and rarely trusts and I'm just here like.. yeah, same. and from his other characters, you can kind of tell that Devo is a different thing. also: it shows you can be terrifying with a french accent lol.

I've been listening to The Adventure Zone bc its a family playing a game where anything is possible. you literally fight dragons. I don't think my parents would ever do that. the fact that their dad plays and tries really hard to be the character he's playing and I love that. I wish my parents cared that much about something I wanted to do.

Today is the observation of St. Nicholas Day (in my family we call it Belsnickel Day, which is just the old german way to say it), which is a holiday lots of european countries celebrate, where on Dec 5th you put your shoes out and the next morning (today) you get a little treat if you are good, or a bundle of sticks if you're not (from krampus). my godmother has always gotten me Belsnickel day presents, even though I'm 42 now. she's so kind to me.

ever since I emailed mom about not wanting to come home for xmas (bc the aunt's house we do it at, I don't feel comfortable around them), I haven't heard anything at all from her. which is weird. in my email I had offered to host them on xmas day (family xmas is always on xmas eve), but since I haven't heard anything, I likely won't be prepared for that. and I think mom might be mad at me. not that we talk all the time, but it does seem like she would've responded by now. another possibility is that gramma isn't doing well (she's 100 so needless to say, her health is precarious and mom is her primary caretaker outside of the nursing home).

but yeah. I feel weird. I feel empty. I feel like garbage that I couldn't get my thesis edits done before this deadline. honestly it took so much to get myself to complete the analysis (which is mostly done, just a little more to do), that it took days to recover after each time I was able to engage with it. and, as my therapist keeps reminding me, I am working full-time now. but I guess I still expected I could do it faster than this. I will get it done. hopefully over the winter break I'll have more time. there's a lot I want to do then. new-boss has this really great boundary that she told our clients not to expect much from us after mid-Dec. all my years in academia are screaming at that lol but I'm so thankful that she has that sort of view point. I will learn a lot about having boundaries professionally from her, I think.

“Wherever you are, I'll always make you smile. Wherever you are, I'm always by your side’

As the last party of this college term comes to an end and exams begin next weekend I can say I made a lot of great memories with everyone! I didn’t really do anything productive today and went to the mall with Alice as she had to return a book and I had to find a sweater for the christmas party at Rui’s place. Lets just say all I got was a phone case for my cousin, multivitamins, and a Nandos sandwich which I devoured as soon as we got back. No sweater though! Post lunch, I wasted time by watching a movie and just talking with Alice.I saw 13 Assassins which I wanted to see for a while and it was a good watch. Lots of action and seppuku happening lol. Around 7:30pm I started getting ready for the party and after much changing I finally found the right clothing article as I was wearing clashing colours and was trying to get the red and green combo going for the party. I ended up wearing a green henley and khakis with a santa hat so that was something ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 

I was kind of hesitant to go because for some reason I was really tired today. Obviously when I asked Alice said not to go. I already told Rui I was gonna go so I couldn’t not go as I always do what I say. sigh. But actually I’m glad I did. I really wanted bubble tea so I got that first. I kinda figured out Rui doesn’t really drink alcohol so I offered to get him a bubble tea as well. He asked for a small but that just made me get him a large one because I knew he was just being nice by asking for the smallest. I treated myself with a large by accident and him as well. I forgot there was a regular size haha and spent $12. meh. I reached the party at 8:45pm and it was really docile at first, but got pretty hyped as more people came and started drinking. The tea was great by the way. Bless the Hokkaido milk tea. 

I just stuck to my bubble tea throughout and played “beer pong” again which is actually water pong because there’s no beer involved heh. I had a lot of fun at the party and everyone was pretty nice! I got to bond a bit more with Rui and enjoyed everyone’s company! Drunk people are funny to hang out with and I was happy the way I was. One girl was pretty blacked out drunk tho lol. Jim finally got his wish to get drunk by drinking 4 locos and was just doing his won thing whatsoever. Courtney (Rui’s girlfriend) also fit right in and played beer pong so competitively it was funny. She’s pretty nice actually but when she laughed for 5min straight after Rui smashed into the wall was actually funny as It’s something I would do ahaha. 

I intended to stay till 12:00am, then that went to 12:30am and then it went to 1:30pm… so it was just Angel and I busing together back on the mustang express/drunk bus. Well, waiting together because she had to go on the other bus lol. We talked about how fun the party was and how Rui had to do the cleanup after lol. I got a shawarma from Mena’s shawarma after the party because I hadn’t had dinner and was starving! Reminder, it was a solid 6/10 but whatever. I got home at 2am and ate it with the leftover hot sauce from Nando’s and its 3:13am and I should be knocked out now! This is how I mess up my schedule ahhhhh. but yes, it was great fun and i’m glad I went out and attended! 

P.S: that song lyric in the title is from that one ok band which everyone was singing when they were drunk and I didn’t have any other song in my head I wanted to use so theres that piece of information. 

The more you know… you know?

Never Know

As I sit here on this Plane back to NY looking at this Pink Camp Flog Gnaw hoodie I ponder on what I could of done different to have you here next to me. Such a Blissful time so many Musical Artist I admire but you was the True Festivity. Now all I could do is just sit here and reminisce..

The Day Before

GET OUT THE WAYY!!!

I'm in my new clothes, now drop it for me for a bankroll!!!

Warm November L.A Night a brother just turned 24 turning up not giving no fucks V.I.P section.

I'm lookin like a motherfuckin DOPE dealer N****!!

Schoolboy Q had the crowd so turnt. Moshpits people falling sweat flying everywhere couldn't escape bumping somebody or being too close. Pushing and Shoving continued as a girl fell into me with her back towards me. I helped her up and she said Thank You Smiling. I stood behind her cause it was nowhere to go and secretly low-key I wanted to stay by her. She was Pretty Smelled Good and when she fell into me I felt her Natural Hair on my face. I still tried to give her space didn't wanna come across as a Groper but it was no space and she didn't seem to mind. Her lower body was adjacent to mines part of me was hoping she didn't feel me, but she began to dance on me slowly to the Heavy hitting Bass sounds of Metro Boomin like we've been dating for Seasons.

A few songs later in the concert began to come to a close people in our section started to leave. The Music wasn't Loud anymore so I was able to speak and actually be heard. She turned to me and said "Thank You for the Support" I replied no problem what's your name?

She replied "Nia"

Me: That's a Nice Name..My name is _______ where are you from?

Nia: St. Louis how about you?

Me: New York, Brooklyn.

Nia: You came by yourself?

Me: Yeah You?

Nia: Yep, my flight leaves tomorrow.

Me: Mines Too if only we could of met earlier during the weekend probably could of hanged out.

Nia: Yeah that would of been cool.

Me: May I walk with you?

Nia: Sure.

We start to walk together towards the exits along with the probably 20,000 people around us. Out of the 20,000 around us I began to wonder if I was meant to bump into such a Beauty like you.

Nia : ( Looks Up at me Smiling after trying not to trip over trash) So if you don't mind me asking what made you come by yourself?

Me: Its just that's it's my Birthday Weekend. I didn't wanna wait for someone to treat me I wanted to enjoy myself and didn't wanna be bothered with someone not wanting to be at the stage or leaving early and all the extra stuff feel me?

Nia: Yeah I Feel You.

Me: Although I can't deny it would of been nice to have someone accompany me. What about you?

Nia: All my friends was too concerned about work and didn't wanna take off to fly out here with me. I also just wanted to try something new on my own. I'm glad I did.

Me: Yeah if you wait for others to make you feel good or wanna experience something new you'll never get that feeling. They'll come along for the ride soon.

Nia: Don't mean to sound Corny but you sound like The Coolest I wouldn't mind walking over trash with you in New York.

( She Laughs)

Me: We could always make that happen.

Nia: ( She Smiles) Take my number my phone is dead.

I tried to hold in my excitement as I take my phone out just to find out it was dead also.

Me: Damn my Shit Dead Too.

Nia: Lets go to the Clubhouse real quick and charge our phones. I gotta use the bathroom anyways.

Me: Ight.

The Clubhouse was a section in the festival you had to have a V.I.P band to get in. It had tents with chairs food and drink booths charging stations and bathrooms.

We arrived to The Clubhouse & a girl with a Pink Camp Flog Gnaw hoodie on walks pass us.

Nia: That hoodie is so Dope I couldn't find that color in small size they sold out so mad. You gotta use the bathroom too?

Me: Nah ima be over here charging my phone meet me back over here.

Nia: Ok ( She Speedwalks to the Bathroom)

As I charge my phone I hear someone yelling in the crowd

"Last Call for Merch Last Call for Merch"!!!

I look outside the Clubhouse exit to see a guy holding up a Pink Camp Flog Gnaw hoodie. I looked towards the bathroom to see if Nia was coming back out. Thought to myself if I could get her that hoodie by the time she comes back I would have her Blushing at least for the rest of 2016. So I took my phone out the charger and ran towards the guy.

Me: Is that a Size Small?

Merch Guy: Yes Sir $50

Me: I only have $30 cash on me.

Merch Guy: Well I can't help you but Mr. ATM over there can.

Me: ( Sucks My Teeth) P**** Motherf*****

(I whisper under my breath) Can you hold it for me please?

Merch Guy: For Five Minutes Man They kicking everybody out.

I run to the ATM and take out $50 just so i have extra Cash on me. I rush back to the Merch Guy and gave him the $50.

Merch Guy: Pleasure doing business with you.

I run back towards the Clubhouse and security stops me.

Security: Sorry it's close no reentry we're clearing the park.

Me: But I'm waiting for somebody and need to charge my phone ( I say desperately)

Security: Well you have to wait over there.

I go a few steps away from the entrance trying to get a view of the bathroom area hoping she show up soon. Ten Minutes passed and she still hasn't come out.

Security: Alright kid you have to go Park is clearing No one is in the bathroom and last people are walking out the Clubhouse now.

I walked away feeling So defeated and like I just lossed something Great just because I tried to be extra. I was so upset I went out my way to bring her closer just to lose her in the attempt. Like was I moving too fast not thinking just to impress her. I would Never know..

Present Day

I would Never know those words echoing in my head. Because Ironically I would Never know In actuality because that Warm November Night in L.A when you bumped into me with your soft body set on me I Never asked your name. I Never stayed closed enough to you like I should have I Never found out where you're from. If you came alone or even if you like the color pink. For This Pink Camp Flog Gnaw hoodie by my window seat would of been for someone like you. I bought it hoping I'll take a chance to know a someone like you and give it to them as someone that would accompany me for the ride soon. Hopefully I Do...

𝐅𝐚𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐅𝐫𝐢𝐝𝐚𝐲 - 𝐍𝐞𝐰 𝐡𝐚𝐢𝐫, 𝐰𝐡𝐨 𝐝𝐢𝐬?

Hello hello my pumpkin pies! How are you all doing? (^_<)〜☆ I hope everyone's good and taking good care! Yeah? Remember to eat, stay hydrated and warm!

How has the Halloween week treated you? I've been sticking to my movie marathon and cooking lots! Yesterday was the Freddy and Jason night so I had lots of fun watching those again! I had some cake and of course the best popcorn~. I also tried making pumpkin nutella hot chocolate for the first time and it was... Something! Hahahaha I think I'll make it again and send some out for everyone else to try it too!

I'm really excited about tonight though and the "Fear Street" movies! I can't wait to watch them all and finally finish the story! But of course, the weekend is what I'm looking forward the most! Are you guys excited for Sunday? Have any nice plans for the big day? I'm out today to get the final touches for my outfit and hopefully I'll be able to make it to Luna's (and Esme's of course~) haunted house in time! (*˘︶˘*)

There's always sooo many things to do during this season, such a shame it's ending soon! I'll make sure to put together a recap of October once its over though ♡ So stay tuned if you wanna know how that went!

Anyway, fashion Friday! New hair, who dis~.

Ta-da! I'm back to black! I guessed it had been already some months since I got the red- I love being a redhead, don't get me wrong! But it's so hard to maintain sometimes (〒﹏〒) So for halloween I just decided to bring back a darker haircolor. It's not really black, but I mixed different dark browns to make this one and I have to say I'm very pleased with it! Because yes, I did it myself at home LMAO you can imagine that was a MESS! A friend came over to help me though, we had a fun time ♡

Of course today's outfit also has a skirt! I have a lot at hand that I didn't get to wear so I'll do now regardless! I'm already regretting it a little since temperature is going down fast throughout the day but that's ok! I look cute at least I believe. This is also one of my favorite sweaters! I got it from a store at the mall a few months ago but they didn't last long, sadly. A shame because they had such nice stuff! But that's just how it works, uh? Have you guys already brought out your autumn clothes? Maybe done a little shopping spree for the season? I definitely will soon now that Min has dropped her entire line!

I think that's everything for now! Would hate to bore you guys with more rambles heh~ I hope Friday treats you well! It's almost weekend now, make sure to take it easy, try to not stress much! Time for rest is just around the corner and you worked so hard this week! I hope you know I'm proud of you and how far you've come, keep moving forward! Ok? (っ˘з(˘⌣˘ )♡

I'll see you again soon, my pumpkins! As always, all the love and take care! -Yura ♡

𝐅𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐅𝐫𝐢𝐝𝐚𝐲 - 𝐑𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐩𝐞𝐬 (Banana bread)

*contact Yura for removal of any food related posts taglist

Lazy Friday's and banana bread~.

Hello hello my birdies! How has this lovely Friday treated you? I'm very sorry for such a late post! I've been laying down today most day, just chilling in bed, self care and baking! Didn't pick up my computer again till recently. I hope today's recipe can make your weekend maybe a lil bit more fun, hm?

It had been some time since I last made any banana dessert, so I just gathered some stuff and decided to share this one today with you, I hope it's ok!

You ever have banana bread and it's so dry and crumbly? I hate that! I thinks it's crazy how the same recipe can go so right or so wrong, no in between. It took me some tries to perfect this for myself, but you just try it out and find your own little secrets ♡

This recipe is not only fast and easy but also the banana bread turns out so moist and fluffy in my opinion!

Prep: 10/15min - Cook: 20/30min - Level: Super easy! - Makes: aprox 10 slices (or really depends on how many you wanna share heh~)

Ingredients-

▪ 250ml oil ▪ 350gr self-rising flour ▪ 2 eggs

▪ 350gr brown sugar (if possible) ▪ 4 ripe bananas

▪ 100gr nuts

Steps-

1- First thing we're gonna do of course is preheat the oven! Very important step, don't forget it like I usually do or you'll have to wait longer!

2- Next up we're going to mix all the ingredients together in a medium/big bowl. Make sure your bananas are nicely smashed first and your nuts already crumbled. If you want to be fancy, I do recomend you slightly whisk the eggs first (I find the dessert to be fluffier when I do this!) but it's really not needed at all!

3- Butter your mold time! You can always use some parchment paper too, just make sure to cover the base nicely so your bread won't stick! I recomend buttering the edges regardless just in case!

4- You're going to want to bake this at a 320-340F temperature or your ovens lower setting for that matter! Its important to give banana bread it's time and not rush it! Otherwise it dries out, raises weird or all of the above.

It's important you keep an eye out for it! The second sweet banana smell starts taking over your kitchen, you need to make sure your bread won't burn and dry out! My oven usually takes around 27 exact minutes, so know your oven!

I hope you guys like this recipe! Who would you share your banana bread with? Have you ever done some before? I wanna know!

I hope you all are taking care, going easy on yourselves and having some fun! Remember every bad day ends and there's always a chance to make things right, the universe will always give you a new opportunity to fix your mistakes somehow. I love you all! I'll see you again soon, alright? All the love, -Yura ♡
